Because the triangle is isosceles, we know that it has 2 equal sides, which are the 2 legs. We can create an equation with the given information:

26 = 2(b + 4) + b

26 = 3b + 8

18 = 3b

b = 6

If the base is 6, add 4 to get 10.

base = 6 meters

leg = 10 meters

other leg = 10 meters

<em>Hope this helps! :)</em>

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 4 chairs and 8 tables is $89 . The total cost to r
puteri [66]
Let C = cost to rent each chairLet T = cost to rent each table

 4C + 8T = 73
2C + 3T = 28 
Multiply the 2nd equation by (-2) and then add the equations together 

  4C + 8T = 73
-4C - 6T = -56
 2T = 17T = 17/2 = 8.5

 Plug this in to the 1st equation to solve for C
 4C + 8(17/2) = 73
4C + 68 = 73
4C = 5C = 5/4 = 1.25
 So the cost to rent each chair is $1.25 and the cost to rent each table is $8.50

The y intercept of the line is ___ , and the slope of the line is ___.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The y-intercept of the line is 1/2, and the slope of the line is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

2y+2=10x+3

2y=10x+3-2

2y=10x+1

y=\frac{10x+1}{2}

y=\frac{10x}{2} +\frac{1}{2}

y=5x+\frac{1}{2}

y=mx+b

m is the slope.

b is the y-intercept.
