Answer:
Base of the original triangle is 12 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let base of triangle be x
two equal legs of triangles by y
therefore perimeter of triangle
x+y+y = 50 or x+2y =50
according to the question
if base is x+3 and leg is y-4
then both are equal
that is x+3 = y-4
y-x = 7 or y =x+7
x+2y =50
x+2(x+7) = 50
x+2x +14 =50
3x +14 =50
3x = 50 -14
3x = 36
x = 12
therefore base of the original triangle is 12 cm
I believe the answer you selected was correct, Have a great day, much love!
One of the lines passes through points (0, 6) and (-4, 3). Hence the equation is given by:
(y - 6)/(x - 0) = (3 - 6)/(-4 - 0)
(y - 6)/x = -3/-4 = 3/4
4(y - 6) = 3x
4y - 24 = 3x
3x - 4y = -24
The other line passes through points (0, -3) and (1, 0). Hence the equation is given by:
(y - (-3))/(x - 0) = (0 - (-3))/(1 - 0)
(y + 3)/x = (0 + 3)/1
y + 3 = 3x
3x - y = 3
Therefore, the system of equations representing the graph is:
3x - 4y = -24
3x - y = 3
