Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^x

Try it.

x = 1

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^1

left = 2000  * 1/2

left = 1000

x = 3

left = 2000 (1/2)^3

left = 2000 (1/8)

left = 250

x = 4

left = 2000 * (1/16)

left = 125

from her on the function does not work accurately. You have to modify the algorithm.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = 24.....multiply by -1

5x + 3y = 36

------------------

-x - 3y = -24 (result of multiplying by -1)

5x + 3y = 36

------------------add

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3 <=======

x + 3y = 24

3 + 3y = 24

3y = 24 - 3

3y = 21

y = 21/3

y = 7 <========

The isosceles triangle shown has a base of 4 y + 2 and a perimeter of 6 y + 12 .  Which expression represents the length of 1 o
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The expression that represents the length of 1 of the triangle's legs is y + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two sides equal which are the triangle legs. Let b represent the base of the triangle and l represent one of the triangle's legs. Then, the perimeter, P is given by

P = l + l + b

i.e P = 2l + b

From the question, P = 6y + 12 and b = 4y +2

∴ 6y + 12 = 2l + 4y + 2

6y - 4y + 12 - 2 = 2l

2y + 10 = 2l

∴ 2l = 2y + 10

Then,

l = (2y+10)/2

l = y + 5

Hence, the expression that represents the length of 1 of the triangle's legs is y + 5
