The legs of an isosceles triangle are congruent; they have the same length, so if one leg measures 2 m, the other leg also measures 2 m.
2m + 2m + b = 7.5 m
b + 4 m = 7.5 m
b = 3.5 m
The length of the base is 3.5 m.
6-6a=3a-3b+1, 9a-3b=5
<span>4b - 8 =3a, 3a-4b=-8
</span>
9a-3b=5
(3a-4b=-8 )*(-3 )
9a -3b= 5
-9a+12b=+24
adding both equations
9b=29, b=29/9
3a=4b-8=4*29/9 -8=(4*29-8*9)/9 = 44/9
a=44/27
a-b=44/27 - 29/9=44/27 - 29*3/27=-43/27
this is a correct answer, unfortunately they do not have this choice, probably they made mistake somewhere. I even check the solution of equations by substitution values of a and b into equations
<span>C/9 - 8 = 17
------------
Simplify
1/9c - 8 = 17
----------------
Add 8 to each side
1/9c - 8 + 8</span><span> </span><span>= 17 + 8
1/9c = 25
--------------------
Multiply each side by 9
9 * 1/9c = 9 * 25
c = 225</span>
C. 3.16 is the right answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula used in coordinate geometry is derived from the Pythagorean theorem.
The distance formula is give by:

Here (x1,y1) are the coordinates of first point and (y1,y2) are the coordinates of second point
Here,
(x1,y1) = (5,-3)
(x2,y2) = (6,0)
Putting the values in the formula

The distance between two points is 3.16 units.
Hence,
C. 3.16 is the right answer
