Answer:
The length of each of the other two sides would be 3.1 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The options of the question are</em></u>
A. 3.1 cm
B. 3.2 cm
C. 4.2 cm
D. 6.1 cm
we know that
An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal interior angles
Let
x -----> the length of each of the two equal sides in the isosceles triangle
The perimeter of one isosceles triangle is equal to
Remember that
To maximize the use of the wire, the perimeter of 6 earrings (3 pairs of earrings) must be equal to 50 cm
so
Solve for x
therefore
The length of each of the other two sides would be 3.1 cm
N; n+1; n+2 - 3 consecutive numbers
n(n + 1) = (n + 2)² - 19 |use a(b + c) = ab + ac and (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
n² + n = n² + 4n + 4 - 19 |subtract n² from both sides
n = 4n - 15 |subtract 4n from both sides
-3n = -15 |divide both sides by (-3)
n = 5
n + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
n + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7
Answer: 5; 6; 7.
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
The one-time setup fee is $5, and the cost per copy is $10 thus the total cost is 10 times the number of copies plus 5.
