Given :
Number of seats at UGA's Sanford Stadium, 
.
Number of seats at Auburn University's Jordan-Hare Stadium, 
.
To Find :
How many more seats are there at UGA's stadium.
Solution :
Extra seats at UGA's stadium = seats at UGA's Sanford Stadium - seats at
Auburn University's Jordan-Hare Stadium
= 92,746 - 87,451
= 5295
Hence, this is the required solution.
An isosceles triangle is a type of triangle where 2 sides are equal.
Picture out 2 triangles with the same base length.
On the first triangle, its legs are twice the length of the legs of the second triangle.
To put it into variables, let:
B = the same base length of the two triangles
A = the length of one leg the smaller triangle
2A = the length of one leg of the bigger triangle
Given: Perimeter of smaller triangle = 23cm
Perimeter of bigger triangle = 43cm
Recall the formula for solving the perimeter of a triangle:
Perimeter = A + B + C
where, A, B, and C are the legs of the triangle
Since the triangle involved is an isosceles triangle, therefore, we can say that
Perimeter = 2A + B , 2 legs are equal ( A=C )
Substituting the given perimeter value to the formula.
23cm = 2A + B ⇒ equation 1 (smaller triangle)
43cm = 2(2A) + B ⇒ equation 2 (bigger triangle)
Simplifying equation 2.
43cm = 4A + B
(rearranging) B = 43cm - 4A ⇒ equation 3
Substituting equation 3 to equation 1:
(equation 1) 23cm = 2A + B
23cm = 2A + (43cm - 4A)
23cm = -2A + 43cm
2A = 43cm - 23cm
2A = 20cm ⇒ length of the leg of the bigger triangle
A = 10cm ⇒ length of the leg of the smaller triangle
To solve for the base length, just substitute the value of A to equation 3
(equation 3) B = 43cm - 4A
B = 43cm - 4(10cm)
B = 3 cm
Final Answer:
• For the smaller triangle, the length of the sides are 10cm, 10cm, and 3cm
• For the bigger triangle, the length of the sides are 20cm, 20cm, and 3cm
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
I replaced the missing variable with x and solved the equation from there.
Hey! I'll provide the steps required.
First, solved the proportion by cross multiplication.
Then use the commutative property to reorder the terms as well as multiply the numbers.
90x = 9720
Finally, divide it by 90.
x = 108
