Answer: x=13
Step 1: Define isosceles triangle
In an isosceles triangle, two sides and angles are equal. The equal sides will be the legs.
Step 2: Write an equation
To write an equation we must first consider the information discussed in step 1. Since we know that the legs will be equal, we will add that to the equation twice. The base and legs will be on one side of the equation, and the perimeter will be on the other. Now we can write the equation!
x+3x-7+3x-7=77
Step 3: Combine like terms
Like terms are terms that share the same variable, or lack of. Let’s add/subtract these now.
x+3x-7+3x-7=77
7x-14=77
Step 4: Solve for x
Let’s do the last part of the equation and solve for x, our final answer.
*Rewrite equation*
7x-14=77
*Add 14 to both sides*
7x=91
*Divide 7 on both sides*
x=13

Answer: The correct option is C
Step-by-step explanation:
You begin a job with an annual salary of $32,900
Each year you are assured of a 5.5%. If you get the same amount each year, that is a 100% payment. It is neither reducing nor increasing. But with an increase of 5.5% each year, it means you are getting (100+5.5)% each year. This equals 105.5%. So for each year, you get 105.5% of the previous year.
This is a geometric progression. To determine the total amount that you can earn in 15 years, we will find the sum of 15 terms, S15 of the series. The formula for sum of the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Sn = [a(r^n - 1)] / r - 1
Where
Sn = sum of the nth terms of the series
a = the first term(salary of the first year
r = common ratio
n = number of years.
From the question,
a = 32900
n = 15
r = 105.5/100 = 1.055
S15 = [32900(1.055^15 - 1)] / 1.055 - 1
S15 = [32900(2.23247649224 - 1)] / 0.055
S15 = [32900 × 1.23247649224] / 0.055
S15 = $737245
√x+3 = 2
First we should simplify the equation by squaring both sides:
x + 3 = 4
Isolate x by taking 3 off both sides:
x = 1
We should ALWAYS check that our answer is correct after working out the value of x. We can do this by substituting x into the original equation:
√x + 3 = 2
Turns into:
√1 + 3 = 2
Which turns into:
√4 = 2
Which is true, therefore we can confirm:
x = 1
