Let L be the length and W be the width. The equations that represents the given conditions are,
 (1)                      L = W + 3
 (2)                    A  = (L - 1) x (W - 1) = 150
                         A = (W + 3 - 1) x (W - 1) = 150
The value of W is 11.8389 in. The width is therefore, 11.8389 in and the length is 14.8389 in.

An isosceles triangle has an angle that measures 92° which other angles could be in that isosceles triangle choose all that appl
nignag [31]

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

The two base angles cannot both be 92 degrees because they would add up to 184 which is more degrees than any triangle has. The apex angle (the top angle) therefore has 92 degrees.

The base angles are equal and found as follows.

2*b + 92 = 180                 Subtract 92 from both sides

2b +92-92 = 180-92

2b = 88                           divide by 2

2b/2=88/2

b = 44

The only angle measurement that fits is 44

A graph is shown below:
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is actually B. x - 3y < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you must convert the equation to y-intercept form first.

Which makes it y = 1/3x - 1.6

So y = 1.6 and using the slope of 1/3x you can find that x = 5
