Isosceles triangle has 2 sides that are the same length. So what you have is three sides that measure: x, x, and (x-8). 70 = x + x + (x-8).
70 = x + x + x - 8
78 = 3x
x = 26.
and 26 - 8 = 18.
So two of your sides are 26 inches and the last side is 18 inches.
We subtract 36-9 which equals 27
Answer:
B: Step 2; 6x − 8 = 12 + 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
the student added 2 x 4 during the distributive property but you must multiply so you get 8 rather than 6.
