Answer:
x=8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+2(x-3)=-2(x-1)
1) Distribute 2 to x and -3:
5x+2x-6=-2(x-1)
2) Distribute -2 to x and -1:
5x+2x-6=-2x+2
3) Combine alike terms:
7x-6=-2x+2
4) Add 2x to both sides:
9x-6=2
5) Add 6 to both sides:
9x=8
6) Divide both sides by 9:
x=8/9
The two numbers are 5 and 12.
Answer:
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides being equal (also two equal base angles).
Let us assume the length of the two equal sides to be x meters each, and the length of the unequal side to be y meter. Since the perimeter of the triangle is 90 m, it can be expressed as:
x + x + y = 90
2x + y = 90
But the length of the equal side is three fourth of the unequal side, i.e x = 3/4y
Therefore:
2(3/4y) + y = 90
3/2y + y = 90
2.5y = 90
y = 90/2.5
y = 36 meters
Also x = 3/4 * 36 = 27 meters
The length of the equal side is 27 meters each and that of the unequal side is 36 meters
Answer:
(-7 and 3) (-5 and 1) (-3 and -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you add all of them you get -4.
