Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

sides of triangle measure: 'x', '4x-2' and '4x-2' since isosceles means both legs are equal

perimeter is the sum of all sides, so set up equation:

95 = 4x - 2 + 4x - 2 + x

95 = 8x - 4 + x

95 = 9x - 4

99 = 9x

x = 11

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

40% number of calories have increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Old Value ( Calories consume before)  = 2000

New Value (increase in Calories consumed) = 2800

We need to find by what percent did the number of calories increase ​

To find percent increase, the formula used is:

Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100%

Putting values in formula and finding percent increase

Percent\: increase=\frac{New\:Value-Old\:Value}{Old\:Value}\times 100\%\:\\Percent\: increase=\frac{2800-2000}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=\frac{800}{2000}\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=0.4\times 100\%\: \\Percent\: increase=40\%

So, 40% number of calories have increased
