Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rational expressions are bascially an expression where one polynomial is divided by another. And a polynomial is a series of terms like ax^b added together, where the exponents, what I labeled as b, need to be positive integers.
Let x=ab=ac, and y=bc, and z=ad.
Since the perimeter of the triangle abc is 36, you have:
Perimeter of abc = 36
ab + ac + bc = 36
x + x + y = 36
(eq. 1) 2x + y = 36
The triangle is isosceles (it has two sides with equal length: ab and ac). The line perpendicular to the third side (bc) from the opposite vertex (a), divides that third side into two equal halves: the point d is the middle point of bc. This is a property of isosceles triangles, which is easily shown by similarity.
Hence, we have that bd = dc = bc/2 = y/2 (remember we called bc = y).
The perimeter of the triangle abd is 30:
Permiter of abd = 30
ab + bd + ad = 30
x + y/2 + z =30
(eq. 2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
So, we have two equations on x, y and z:
(eq.1) 2x + y = 36
(eq.2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
Substitute 2x + y by 36 from (eq.1) in (eq.2):
(eq.2') 36 + 2z = 60
And solve for z:
36 + 2z = 60 => 2z = 60 - 36 => 2z = 24 => z = 12
The measure of ad is 12.
If you prefer a less algebraic reasoning:
- The perimeter of abd is half the perimeter of abc plus the length of ad (since you have "cut" the triangle abc in two halves to obtain the triangle abd).
- Then, ad is the difference between the perimeter of abd and half the perimeter of abc:
ad = 30 - (36/2) = 30 - 18 = 12
Answer:
5b - 138
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright let's break it down.
First, you can see that each constant (5,126,7) have negatives in front of them. SO you are going to subtract each one of them.
When subtracting negatives it's basically just adding them together. How to do it is simply adding:
5 + 126 + 7
Then you get 138.
BUT, it was negative numbers. So it's actually -138.
Then bring back the 5b and your answer is:
5b - 138
Mark brainliest if you can :D
