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

A. Plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid and connect the points.
labwork [276]

Answer:

  a) see the plots below

  b) f(x) is exponential; g(x) is linear (see below for explanation)

  c) the function values are never equal

Step-by-step explanation:

a) a graph of the two function values is attached

__

b) Adjacent values of f(x) have a common ratio of 3, so f(x) is exponential (with a base of 3). Adjacent values of g(x) have a common difference of 2, so g(x) is linear (with a slope of 2).

__

c) At x ≥ 1, the slope of f(x) is greater than the slope of g(x), and the value of f(x) is greater than the value of g(x), so the curves can never cross for x > 1. Similarly, for x ≤ 0, the slope of f(x) is less than the slope of g(x). Once again, f(0) is greater than g(0), so the curves can never cross.

In the region between x=0 and x=1, f(x) remains greater than g(x). The smallest difference is about 0.73, near x = 0.545, where the slopes of the two functions are equal.

find the equation of a line through the coordinate (3,6) and parallel to the line represented by y=5/3 x-1
maw [93]

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0 or (0,y))


For lines to be parallel, their slopes have to be the SAME.


The given line's slope is 5/3, so the parallel line's slope is also 5/3

y = 5/3x + b

To find "b", plug in the point (3,6) into the equation

y = 5/3x + b

6 = 5/3(3) + b

6 = 5 + b

1 = b


y = 5/3x + 1

Solve pls (correctly) brainliest if correct! I, lots of points!
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the equation of the line:

put it in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

You already have m = 2, so y = 2x + b.

Then, since you know (1, 3) is a solution so you can plug x = 1 and y = 3 into the equation to find out what b is.

3 = 2 * 1 + b

3 = 2 + b

1 = b

This means the equation of the line is y = 2x + 1.

Then, since you're trying to find out what y is when x = 2, you can plug in x = 2 into the equation:

y = 2 * 2 + 1

y = 4 + 1

y = 5

5 is the answer
