Answer:5/12 (Decimal: 0.416667)
Step-by-step explanation:
P = s + (s + 5) + (s + 5) This represents the two sides that are 5 inches longer than the base (s + 5) and the base (s).
Simplifying.
100 = 3s + 10
subtract 10 from both sides
90 = 3s
divide both sides by 3
30 = s
base = 30
sides = 35
CHECK 30 + 35 + 35 = 100
Answer:
10

Answer:
x ≈ 0.290640965127
Step-by-step explanation:
y subtracting the right side of the equation, we get a function that is zero at a real solution for x. The only x-intercept is at approximately 0.290640965127.
___
The graph shows the x-intercept to be 0.2906. The value above was obtained by Newton's method iteration. The roots of this cubic will all be irrational.
