Answer:
2x+ 2.1 = 7.5
x=2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with sides x and y is
2x+y = P
I put y as the single side since the question said y is the shortest side. It should say shorter sides if the two sides with the same length are smaller than the third.
We know y =2.1 and P = 7.5
Substituting these values in, we get
2x+ 2.1 = 7.5
Subtract 2.1 from each side
2x+2.1 -2.1 = 7.5 -2.1
2x= 5.4
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = 5.4/2
x = 2.7 m
I will think that the answer is d
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2.1 is the same as 21/10
which will give 2
Answer: 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
8x + 2 > 34
Subtract 2 from both sides to start isolating x
8x > 32
Divide both sides by 8 to isolate x
x > 4
x is greater than 4
