How would I find x, I know it's an isosceles triangle but I so not know how to solve for it?????
1 answer:
Answer:
x=7 (if your teacher cares it could + or - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, since it's a 90 degree triangle you can use the Pythagorean theorem
( a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
Since it's an isosceles triangle the other side is x because it's the same value.
x^2 + x^2= (7 )^2
Add the left side
2x^2= 7^2 + ^2 roots and square roots cancel each other out
So -> 2x^2= 49 x 2 =98
just solve for x.
x^2 = 98/2
x^2= 49
Square root both sides
x= 7

1 oz of chips has 140 mg of sodium, and 1 cup of soda has 40 mg of sodium.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the amount of sodium in 1oz of chips.
y is the amount of sodium in 1 cup of soda.
Bryan ate 4 oz of chips and drank 1 cup of soda for a total of 600mg of sodium.
This means that , also
Jadyn ate 1 oz of chips and drank 4 cups of soda for a total of 300mg of sodium.
This means that:
From the first equation, we have that . So
1 oz of chips has 140 mg of sodium, and 1 cup of soda has 40 mg of sodium.
