X + y = 20 Substitute
x by 2 y - 4 in x + y = 20 to obtain 2 y •
4 + y = 20 Solve for y to find y = 8 and
x = 2y - 4 = 12
Answer:
The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is 32 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The perimeter of any figure is </em><em>the sum of the lengths of outline sides</em>
Let us use this fact to solve our question
∵ The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of the lengths of its 3 sides
∵ The triangle is an isosceles triangle
∵ The length of each two equal sides is 12 centimeters
∵ The length of the third side is 8 centimeters
→ Add the lengths of the 3 sides
∴ The perimeter of the triangle = 12 + 12 + 8
∴ The perimeter of the triangle = 32 centimeters
∴ The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is 32 centimeters
From what I got there is one real solution :)
Rearrange the second equation to give y=2-2x, substitute into the first equation to give you a value for x and then using that you can work out y for the exact coordinates of intersection :)
Also they are both straight line graphs so they will either have one or no solutions
Hope this helped :)
