5.7 I pretty sure
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
So length of top of table is 3x-7 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we are given that the top of the table has a width that is given by 2x inches.
The area of the top is given by:

Now the top of the table is of the shape of rectangle and area of rectangle is given by:

where l is length of the table and w is width of the table.
Plugging the values of A and w in the formula we have:

Dividing by 2x,
l=3x-7 inches
So length of top of table is 3x-7 inches.
Answer:
sometimes
Step-by-step explanation:
If this is an "always, sometimes, never" kind of problem, the answer is sometimes.
An isosceles triangle can be an obtuse triangle sometimes (but might be right or acute. An obtuse triangle can be isosceles or may be scalene. An obtuse triangle cannot be a right triangle nor equilateral.
The names for triangles comes from their angles:
right, acute, obtuse;
OR from their sides:
scalene, isosceles, equilateral.
Ok so in order to do this, you have to set up an equation. Let's make a=the score of the first test and b=the score of the second test. (You can choose different variables, it doesn't matter.) It says the sum of the two equals 170. So, a+b=170. It also says that the score of the first was 6 less than the second. This can be shown as a=b-6. Now you can plug this in for a in your original equation. It will look like:
(b-6)+b=170
You can solve for b.
2b-6=170
2b=176
b=88
Since you want a, plug into either equation for b. I'll use the second one.
a=88-6
So, a=82
