Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if the base=x

length of one leg is =4x-6

length of the other leg is also =4x-6 (isosceles)

P=x+4x-6+4x-6=51

9x-12=51

9x=51+12

9x=63

x=63/9=7

x=7

Please help me please will give brainliest

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

$16\sqrt{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is two times width plus two times length:

$2\sqrt{17} + 2\cdot 7\sqrt{17} = 2\sqrt{17} + 14\sqrt{17} = 16\sqrt{17}$

There is no way to simplify further.

If f(x)=log2(x+4), what is f^-1(3)?

zalisa [80]

$f\left( x \right) =\log _{ 2 }{ \left( x+4 \right) } \\ \\ \log _{ 2 }{ \left( x+4 \right) } =y\\ \\ { 2 }^{ y }=x+4$

$\\ \\ x={ 2 }^{ y }-4\\ \\ \therefore \quad { f }^{ -1 }\left( x \right) ={ 2 }^{ x }-4\\ \\ \therefore \quad { f }^{ -1 }\left( 3 \right) ={ 2 }^{ 3 }-4=4$

A board game that normally costs $30 is on sale for 25 percent off. What is the sale price of the game?

Roman55 [17]

25% off translates into 0.25($30) = $7.50 off.

A faster way to determine the sales price is to subtract 0.25 from 1.00 and then mult. the regular price by the result: sales price = 0.75($30) = $22.50 (answer)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive integers are of the form 2n

The first term is 2 and the 130th term is 2(130)=260

The sum of this arithmetic sequence is the average of first and last terms times the number of terms

(2+260)(130/2)
