The two congruent base angles tell us that this is an isosceles triangle, meaning the triangle has two congruent sides. Therefore, we can set these two expressions equal to each other and solve from there.
15x + 7 = 23x - 17
7 = 8x - 17
8x = 24
x = 3
Side = 15(3) + 7 = 45 + 7 = 52
Hope this helps!
3/2 = 6
6/4= 6/40= 6 .999= ~ 7
Answer: Triangle 2 is congruent to triangle 1 because a translation is a rigid motion
Step-by-step explanation:
Marty read 4 times as many pages as Nelson and Jennifer COMBINED. Marty read 1,860 pages.
In total, after dividing Marty's total by 4, Jennifer and Nelson both read a total of 465 pages.
After subtracting Nelson's 240, Jennifer is then found to have read 225 pages.
B would be the best viable option, as it clearly shows that 240+?x4=1,860, which it does.
