Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle ABC is 17 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the Isosceles triangle ABC.

The sides CA and CB are equal with measures, 5 cm.

The base angles are assumed to be <em>x</em>° each. Hence, the angle ACB is 2<em>x</em>°.

The altitude CP divides the base AB into two equal halves and the angle ACB is also cut into halves.

Consider the right angled triangle ACP.

The sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180°.

Determine the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

<em>x</em>° + <em>x</em>° + 90° = 180°

2<em>x</em>° = 90°

<em>x</em>° = 45°

Compute the length of side AP as follows:

cos\ 45^{0}=\frac{AP}{CA}

      \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{AP}{5}

     AP =\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\AP=3.5

Then the length of side AB is:

AB = AP + PB

     = 3.5 + 3.5

     = 7 cm

The perimeter of triangle ABC is:

Perimeter = AB + CA + CB

                = 7 + 5 + 5

                = 17

Thus, the perimeter of the triangle ABC is 17 cm.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

80%; 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 5 blue marbles, 2 black marbles, and 3 red marbles. In other words, there is a total of 10 marbles.

There are only 2 black marbles and 8 marbles that are not black. Therefore, the probability of <em>not</em> drawing a black marble is 8/10 or 4/5 or 80%.

There are only 3 red marbles out of the 10 total marbles. Therefore, the probability of drawing a red marble is 3/10 or 30%.

For the first system, we have

1 - 3x + 3y = -8

or

-3x + 3y = -9

The second equation, however, tells us

-3x + 3y = 13

but -9 ≠ 13, so this system has no solution.

For the second system, notice that multiplying both sides of

4x - 8y = 6

by 1/2 gives

2x - 4y = 3

which is identical to the other equation in the system. Then all point (x, y) that lie on this line are solutions to the system, meaning there are infinitely many solutions.

Given the equation -2x+3y=12, find the missing value in the ordered pair 3, <br><br> Noo linkss plz
astraxan [27]

Answer:

(3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+3y=12

Let x = 3

-2(3) +3y = 12

-6+3y = 12

Add 6 to each side

-6+6 +3y = 12+6

3y = 18

Divide each side by 3

3y/3 = 18/3

y = 6
