2 negative three.....use Math-way
(x-1)^2+(y-4)=4 is the answer but the pyth theorem is for triangles
X = measure of each of the legs
"perimeter is 8 more than 2 times one of the legs" ---> P = 2x+8
P = 28 is the given perimeter
So,
P = 2x+8
28 = 2x+8
2x+8 = 28
2x = 20
x = 10
If x = 10, then the two legs add up to x+x = 10+10 = 20
Leaving P-20 = 28-20 = 8 inches left over for the base
You have the correct answer (choice D, 8 inches) though your steps are a bit confusing at some parts. Such as the part where you wrote 2x = 10 twice. I think I know what you were trying to say.
Answer:
25.2 pints of blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
If 8.4 is 1/4 of the total amount of paint then multiply it by 4 to find the total amount of paint, which is 33.6. The subtract 8.4 from 33.6 which is 25.2
Hope this helps :)
Answer: 27.2
Step-by-step explanation: add up the values then divide by the amount of values (6)
