An isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 46 inches. The base is 6 less than twice each of the congruent legs. What is the sum of the lengths of the two congruent legs?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 26 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two congruent legs.

1) Set up the equations

P = b + 2L

b = 2L-6

2) Substitute for variables

46 = (2L - 6) + 2L

3) Solve the equation

46 = 4L - 6

52 = 4L

13 = L

4) Solve the problem

It asks for what is the sum of the two congruent legs

13 + 13 = Ans

26 = Ans

Solve each equation. Show solutions on number line |x-4|=1

Answers

The solutions to the equation are x = 5 and x = 3

How to solve the equation?

The equation is given as

|x - 4|= 1

The above equation is an absolute value equation

When the absolute value sign is removed from the equation, we have

x - 4 = 1 or x - 4 = -1

Add 4 to all sides of the equation

So, we have the following equations

x = 1 + 4 or x = 4 - 1

Evaluate

x = 5 or x = 3

This means that the value of the equation is x = 5 or x = 3

the half-life of palladium-100 is 4 days. after 12 days a sample of palladium-100 has been reduced to a mass of 4 mg. what was the initial mass (in mg) of the sample? what is the mass (in mg) 7 weeks after the start? you may enter the exact value or round to 4 decimal places.

Answers

Using the half life of palladium, mass seven weeks after start was 0.7931 gm.

The half-life is the amount of time it takes for a quantity (of material) to fall to the cost. In nuclear physics, the phrase usually refers to how rapidly neutrons become radioactive atoms or how long stable atoms survive.

The term can also refer to any sort of hyperbolic (or, in rare situations, non-exponential) decay.

The  half life of palladium 100 = 4 days

after 24 days sample has reduced to a mass of 5mg

standard exponential function is

[tex]P = P_o e^{kt}[/tex]

plugging P = P₀ /2

[tex]P_o/2 = P_o e^{4k }[/tex]

[tex]1/2 = e^{4k }[/tex]

ln (1/2) = 4k

k = -0.1733

function becomes

[tex]P = P_o e^{- 0.1733 t }[/tex]

plugging P = 5 and t = 24

[tex]5 = P_o e^{( - .1733\times 24 ) }[/tex]

P₀ = 320.10

In the medical sciences, for example, the biological half of drugs and other chemicals in the human body is referred to. The flipside of half-life is doubling time in exponential growth.

For the second part of the problem:

7 weeks = 5 × 7 =49 days

plugging t = 49

[tex]P = 320.10 e^{(-.1733 * 35 ) }[/tex]

mass 7 weeks after = 0.7431 mg

Rebecca wants to prove that if the diagonals in a parallelogram are perpendicular, then it is a rhombus.

Answers

It is shown that if a parallelogram's diagonals are perpendicular, the parallelogram is a rhombus.

In mathematics, what is a parallelogram?

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two parallel sides (and therefore opposite angles equal).

What exactly is a rhombus?

A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all of its sides equal. Because opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, a rhombus is a type of parallelogram in which all sides are equal.

We must demonstrate that if the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, then the parallelogram is a rhombus.

Let ABCD be a  parallelogram .

Consider Δ AOD and Δ COD

Since, a parallelogram's diagonals bisect each other we can say that,

AO = CO

∠AOD = ∠COD = 90°

DO = OD

Δ AOD ≅ Δ COD [SAS rule]

∴ AD = CD

Because the parallelogram's adjacent sides are equal, we can conclude that all four sides are equal.

As a result, it is demonstrated that if the diagonals of a parallelogram are perpendicular, the parallelogram is a rhombus.

Answers

Adam's account balance at the end of the month is 19.13 dollars.

The amount present in Adam's bank account at the beginning of the month is $174.85.

The transactions he wrote are,

58.00

-316.35

102.96

The Transactions which have positive sign are credit amount and the transaction with negative sign are debit amount.

We can write,

The balance at the end of the month = Initial balance present + Credit amount + debit amount

So, balance in Adam's account can be found by simple addition and subtraction,

Balance = 174.85 + 58.00 + 102.96 - 316.38

Balance = 335.81 - 316.68

Balance = 19.13

What is meant by rigid transformations?

A transformation that maintains the size and shape of a geometric figure is known as a rigid transformation (or isometry). is a unique kind of transformation that doesn't alter a figure's size or shape.

Any transformation that leaves the sides and angles of flat figures unaltered is referred to as rigid transformation or isometry.Congruent pictures are produced by reflection in the plane, translations, rotations, or a combination of them.This suggests that two figures can only be said to be congruent if and only if a rigid transformation, or a combination of one or more rigid transformations, can map one planar figure onto another.

The given angles in the figure are 2x + 42° and x - 24°, which are interior angles formed on the same side of the transversal.

By Same Side Interior Angles Theorem,

2x + 42° + x - 24° = 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

3x - 5 is an exterior angle of the triangle, then

3x - 5 = x + 25 ( subtract x from both sides )

A function can be defined as a mapping whose co-domain is the set of real numbers.

Given the mapping defined as function of (t) = function of (t-1) + 20, for function of (1) = 100

Hence,

.f (2) = function of (2-1) + 20

.f (1) + 20

.f (3) = function of (3-1) + 20

In mathematics, the translation shift the coordinates either on the horizontal axis or on the vertical axis. It compress the expression also. Similarly, in reflection, the expression get reflected on the coordinate axis either on the upper side or downward side.

According to the question, the given expression for the translation as well as for the reflection are as follows:

h(x)=a |b(x) + c| + d

g(x)=1/3 | x + 3| - 4

And the given condition state that the translation is for 7 units and reflection is on the y-axis. Translation shift the expression and reflection reflects the expression.

Translation expression: h(x+7)=a |b(x+7) + c| + d
