Nady [450]3 years ago

Answer:

Side a = 35ft

Side b = 35ft

Side c = 20ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c

In an isosceles triangle, 2 sides are equal to each other.

So, Side a = Side b

In the question, we are told that:

The two equal sides are each 5 ft less than twice the length of the third side.

Hence,

a = 2c - 5

b = 2c - 5

P = 90ft

P = a + b + c

90 = 2c - 5 + 2c - 5 + c

Collect like terms

90 = 5c - 10

90 + 10 = 5c

100 = 5c

c = 100/5

c = 20

The length of the third side = 20ft

a = 2c - 5

= 2 × 20 - 5

= 40 - 5

= 35 ft

b =2c - 5

= 2 × 20 - 5

= 40 - 5

= 35 ft

Therefore,

Side a = 35ft

Side b = 35ft

Side c = 20ft

<h3>hello!</h3>

let's evaluate this expression

\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5}g+3h-6 }

\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+3(6)-6}

\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+18-6}

\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+12}

Multiply:

\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *\frac{10}{1} =\frac{20}{5} =4}

Final Step:-

T = days passed

r = rate of growth

by 0 day, or t = 0, there are 2 folks sick,

\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}&#10;\\\\&#10;A=P(1 + r)^t\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &2\\&#10;P=\textit{initial amount}\\&#10;r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\&#10;t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &0\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;2=P(1+r)^0\implies 2=P\cdot 1\implies 2=P\qquad \boxed{A=2(1+r)^t}

 by the third day, t = 3, there are 40 folks sick,

\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}&#10;\\\\&#10;A=P(1 + r)^t\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &40\\&#10;P=\textit{initial amount}\to &2\\&#10;r=rate\to r\%\to \frac{r}{100}\\&#10;t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &3\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;40=2(1+r)^3\implies 20=(1+r)^3\implies \sqrt[3]{20}=1+r&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt[3]{20}-1=r\implies 1.7\approx r\qquad \boxed{A=2(2.7)^t}

Approximate the real number solution(s) to the polynomial function f(x) = x3 − 4x2 + x + 6.
MaRussiya [10]
C is the correct answer because that's the only answer where all the numbers (i.e. 3, -1, 2) all, when plugged into the function, equal 0. For example:

3³ - (4 × 3²) + 3 + 6 = 0
-1³ - (4 × (-1)²) + (-1) + 6 = 0
2³ - (4 × 2²) + 2 + 6 = 0

As we see, everything adds up to 0. So, C is the correct answer.
