This is the steps how i solved it.
the answer is 39.8
The perimeter is all sides length added together. You can make an equation:5+5+x+x where x is the length.
5+5=10 18-10=8 There is two sides so you do eight divided by two
The length is 4
Finding the discriminate of a quadratic formula determines the number and type of answers.
The formula is b^2 -4(ac)
a = 6. b = -7 and c = -4
-7^2 -4(6*-4) = 145
The answer is a positive number so this means there are 2 real solutions.
Answer:
B. SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given diagram, it would be observed that each side of the bigger triangle are multiplied by a factor of 
to give the values of each corresponding sides of the smaller triangle. But the included angle of the two triangles are the same.
Therefore, the reason why the triangles are similar is because of side-angle-side (SAS) relations. The correct option is B.
y=kx+b
for (7,-8): -8=7k+b. (function 1)
for (-4,6): 6=-4k+b (function 2)
Use function 2 - function 1
we get: 14=-11k
k=-14/11------>slope is -14/11
Now we know that first two options are wrong since they have the wrong slope for the function.
Plus -14/11 back to function 1/ or 2. Both are correct and can give you the answer. In this case I would plug it back to function 2.
6=14*4/11+b
b=66/11-56/11
b=10/11
We get y=-14/11x+10/11
subtract both side by 6.
y-6=-14/11x+10/11-66/11
y-6=-14/11x-56/11
y-6=-14/11(x+4)
So C is correct
