In order for the triangle to be isosceles, we have to set two lengths of the triangle equal to each other.
Let's take the lengths 5x-12 and x+20 and set them equal to each other.
5x - 12 = x + 20
Combine like terms by moving them over to their respective sides.
Subtract x from both sides of the equation.
4x - 12 = 20
Add 12 to both sides of the equation.
4x = 32
Divide both sides by 4.
x = 8
Check your answer by substituting.
5x - 12 = x + 20
5(8) - 12 = 8 + 20
40 - 12 = 28
28 = 28
Solution: x = 8
Answer:110
Step-by-step explanation:x^2+17x=15x+35
x^2+17x-15x-35=0
x^2+2x-35=0
delta=2^2-4*1*(-35)=4+140=144
x1=(-2+V144)/2=(-2+12)/2=10/2
x=5
so 15*5+35=75+35=110
Answer:
Take the number of weeks as x
12x = 544 - 100
x =444/12
x = 37
Thus it would take her 37 weeks to buy her a laptop
Answer:
i) 20m/s
ii) 4s
iii) 144m
iv) 2 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see attached picture for full solution.
The original expression here might be (4x3) + (4x3). This is because the
distributive property simply moves around numbers, but will not change
the value of the equation, as in the question we are looking at here.
