Answer:

The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides being equal (also two equal base angles).

Let us assume the length of the two equal sides to be x meters each, and the length of the unequal side to be y meter. Since the perimeter of the triangle is 90 m, it can be expressed as:

x + x + y = 90

2x + y = 90

But the length of the equal side is  three fourth of the unequal side, i.e x = 3/4y

Therefore:

2(3/4y) + y = 90

3/2y + y = 90

2.5y = 90

y = 90/2.5

y = 36 meters

Also x = 3/4 * 36 = 27 meters

The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters

2. A lunch stand makes s.75 profit on each chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each Caesar salad. On a typical weekday, it sells be
kow [346]

Let's let

<u>x = the number of chef salads, x>=0</u>

<u>y = the number of Caesar salads, y>=0</u>

The constrains are:

40 <= x <= 60

35 <= y <= 50

x + y <= 100

The objective function here is F(x, y) = 0.75x + 1.20y

The corner points are (40, 35),  (60, 35), (60, 40), (50, 50) and (40, 50).

F (40, 35) = 0.75*40 + 1.20*35 = $72

F (60, 35) = 0.70*60 + 1.20*35 = $84

F (60, 40) = 0.75*60 + 1.20*40 = $93

F (50, 50) = 0.75*50 + 1.20*50 = $97.50

F (40, 50) = 0.75*40 + 1.20*50 = $90

Thus, we conclude to maximize the profit 50 Chef and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared.

A plus 5 equals negative 5a plus 5
jenyasd209 [6]
A+5=5a+5   Subtract a from each side
5=5a+5       Subtract 5 from each side
0=5a           Divide each side by the number before the variable to get it alone.
