Answer:
Base = 126 cm or 60 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of sides of isosceles triangle = 4 : 7
Sides are = 4x , 7x
If smallest sides of the isosceles triangle are equal, then
three sides are = 4x , 4x , 7x
Perimeter = 270 cm
4x + 4x + 7x = 270
15x = 270
x = 270/15
x = 18
Base = 7x = 7*18 = 126 cm
If largest sides of the isosceles triangle are equal, then
Three sides are = 7x , 7x , 4x
7x + 7x +4x = 270
18x = 270
x = 270/18
x = 15
Base = 4x = 4 * 15 = 60 cm
K = 4a + 9ab
K = a (4 + 9b)
K / (4 + 9B) = a
X=3
y=5
You have to cancel out either the x values or the y values (I chose y). You multiply both equations by particular numbers so either the x values or y values can be equal to each other, as well as positive or negative to each other. I multiplied -7y by 4 and 4y by 7, and got -28y and 28y. I then canceled those out. The numbers you multiply by also affects the rest of the equations, so I ended up with 48x=4 and -35x=35. After that, you combine like terms, which results in 13x=39. You divide 13 by both sides and you end up with x=3. To find y, all you have to do is plug in the x value to one of the equations, then solve for y. I resulted in y=5.
Hope this helped ^_^
