This is true. An isosceles triangle is one that has two equal sides and two equal angles. The third side can be any length and the third angle will also vary depending on the other two angles. An equilateral triangle is one where all sides and angles are equal. An isosceles can be equilateral, but it does not have to be.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of soap that she makes and eventually sells.
She intially spent $72 to purchase soap-making equipment, and the materials for each pound of soap cost $7. This means that the total cost of making x pounds of soap would be
7x + 72
Lisa sells the soap for $10 per pound. This means that her revenue for x pounds of soap would be
10 × x = 10x
If she eventually sells enough soap to cover the cost of the equipment, then
7x + 72 = 10x
10x - 7x = 72
3x = 72
x = 72/3 = 24
She would need to sell make and sell 24 soaps.
The cost would be
72 + 7 × 24 = $240
The total sales would be
10 × 24 = $240
Answer:
Multiply x + y = 3 by 3 and add it to -3x - 2y = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
When using elimination to solve a system of equations, you multiply one equation by some number. The reason for doing this is that when you add it to the second equation, you want one variable to cancel out. When one variable cancels out (in this case x), you can solve for the other variable (in this case y). I will show this:
3(x + y = 3) = 3x + 3y = 9
3x + 3y = 9
+ -3x + -2y = -7
---------------------------
y = 2
Now, knowing that y = 2, you can substitute y=2 into either equation to solve for x.
-3x - 2(2) = -7
-3x -4 = -7
-3x = -3
x = 1 | to double check (1, 2) as your answer plug these values into both equations
Finding this solution would not have been possible if not for cancelling out the x's above. The other three are wrong because none of the other options cancels out one of the variables.
The answer will be 625j^4 k^4
