Hey there! I'm happy to help!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

WHAT IS THE PERIMETER?

The perimeter is just the distance around a shape. If you put a fence around a field, the length of all of the fencing is the perimeter.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

WHAT IS AN ISOSCELES TRIANGLE?

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has at least two sides that have the same length! In our triangle, we have two sides that have the value of a, so that makes it isosceles!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

THE SOLUTION

In our problem, we want to find the perimeter of this triangle in terms of a and c. When we say in terms of, it just means that our answer will include a and c instead of finding a number value.

The perimeter is the sum of each of these sides. This means that the perimeter is a+a+c, which is also 2a+c.

Therefore, the perimeter of this isosceles triangle is 2a+c.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Barry's final score is 45 which player had the greater final score?
natali 33 [55]

The player with the greater final score is of:

Barry.

<h3>How to obtain which player had the greater final score?</h3>

Barry's final score is given as follows:

45.

Then we have to obtain Lee's score, from the description given in the missing information section.

Lee's scored is obtained as follows:

  • Starts at -350.
  • Answers a 275-point question correctly, hence - 350 + 275 = -75.
  • Answers a 70 - point question correctly, hence -75 + 70 = -5.
  • Answers a 50 - point question incorrectly, hence: -5 - 50 = -55.

Thus Lee's final score is given as follows:

-55.

The classifications of the final scores according to the signals are given as follows:

  • Barry: positive score.
  • Lee: negative score.

A positive score will always be greater than a negative score, hence Barry had the greater final score.

<h3>Missing information</h3>

Lee and Barry play a trivia game in which questions are worth different numbers of points. If a question is answered correctly, a player earns points. If a question is answered incorrectly, the player loses points. Lee currently has -350 points.

a. Before the game ends, Lee answers a 275 -point question correctly, a 70 -point question correctly, and a 50 -polnt question incorrectly. Write and find the value of an expression to find Lee's final score.

b. Barry's final score is 45. Which player had the greater final score?

What are the vertical and horizontal asymptotes for the function f(x)=<br> 3x2/x2-4
Alecsey [184]

Answer:  f(x) will have vertical asymptotes at x=-2 and x=2 and horizontal asymptote at y=3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function: f(x)=\dfrac{3x^2}{x^2-4}

The vertical asymptote occurs for those values of x which make function indeterminate or denominator 0.

i.e. x^2-4=0\Rightarrow\ x^2=4\Rightarrow\ x=\pm2

Hence, f(x) will have vertical asymptotes at x=-2 and x=2.

To find the horizontal asymptote , we can see that the degree of numerator and denominator is same i.e. 2.

So, the graph will horizontal asymptote at y=\dfrac{\text{Coefficient of }x^2\text{ in numerator}}{\text{Coefficient of }x^2\text{ in denominator}}

i.e. y=\dfrac{3}{1}=3

Hence, f(x) will have horizontal asymptote at y=3.
