Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is isosceles then the 2 legs are congruent.

Given the perimeter is 66, then sum the 3 sides and equate to 66, that is

x + 4x - 3 + 4x - 3 = 66 , that is

9x - 6 = 66 ( add 6 to both sides )

9x = 72 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 8

shtirl [24]
<span>If the company, hewerrtt, would like to make letter codes using all of the letters in the word hewerrtt, they would be able to make five codes. Altogether, there are eight letters in the word, but there are duplicates of the letter e, the letter r, and the letter t, so that takes out three possibilities. Three subtracted from eight is equal to five, therefore the company can make five codes using the company name.</span>
