Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

I take it that the question is What is the value of x.

... Every triangle has a measure of 180o so that is what is on the right side of the equation.

... the Vertex of an isosceles triangle has a unique value. There is only one angle with a measure of 42.

... The Base angles are equal. And there are 2 of them.

Equation

2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + 42 = 180o      

Solution

Combine like terms

2x + 2x + 3 + 3 + 42 = 180  Show the like terms as 1 term for the xs and 1 for the pure numbers on the left.

4x + 48 = 180   Subtract 48 from both sides

4x = 180 - 48    combine

4x = 132            Divide by 4

4x/4 = 132/4

x = 33

Answer

x = 33

2x + 3 = 2*33 + 3 = 69

So the three angles are

69 + 69 + 42

Check

69 + 69 + 42

138 + 42

180 as it should.

Sally is having a problem with her puppy leaving the yard so she decides to build a new fence. The length of the yard is 10 feet
Cerrena [4.2K]

The length of the yard is 25ft.

In order to find this we first need to set up variables for the length and the width. Since we don't know anything about the width, we'll set it as x. Then, we know the length is equal to ten more than three times the width. Since the width is x, we can write the length as 3x + 10. Now we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x.

2l + 2w = P

2(3x + 10) + 2(x) = 60

6x + 20 + 2x = 60

8x + 20 = 60

8x = 40

x = 5

Now that we have a value for x, we can plug into the length equation and find the length.

3x + 10

3(5) + 10

15 + 10

30. The table below shows the number of ants in an ant farm on different
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a)10

b)5120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that number of ants double after every ten days, form a table that shows numbe of ants from day 1 to day 91

Day                                                  Number of Ants

1                                                                       10

11                                                                      20

21                                                                     40

31                                                                     80

41                                                                     160

<em>51                                                                    320-----------------given</em>

<em>61                                                                    640------------------given</em>

<em>71                                                                    1280----------------given</em>

81                                                                   2560

91                                                                    5120

Using the given values for number of ants and the number of days, you can notice the trend for values of days and number of ants.After every ten days, number of ants doubles.Using this information, you can navigate backwards up to day 1 and forward up to day 91
