Set the length of the base as x, the two equal sides are then 4x each, so the perimeter is x+4x+4x=9x
Answer:
21+/-sqrt(253)=x
So one value for x is 21+sqrt(253)
and another is 21-sqrt(253)
Problem:
Given (21,7) and (x,1), find all x such that the distance between these two points is 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
Change in x is x-21
Change in y is 7-1=6
distance^2=(change in x)^2+(change in y)^2
17^2=(x-21)^2+(6)^2
289=(x-21)^2+36
Subtract 36 on both sides:
289-36=(x-21)^2
253=(x-21)^2
Take square root of both sides:
+/-sqrt(253)=x-21
Add 21 on both sides:
21+/-sqrt(253)=x

Answer: Both A, and C
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to the first system of equations (2x+2y=16) would be
x=3 and y=5 ( 3x-y=4 )
Which means we have to find out which of the other equations has an x value of 3, and a y value of 5.
If A is 2x+2y=16, then x=3 and y=5
6x-2y=8
If B is x+y=16, then x=5 and y=11
3x-y=4
If C is 2x+2y=16, then x=3 and y=5
6x-2y=8
If D is 6x+6y=48 , then x=-2 and y=10
6x+2y=8
Both A and C are equal to the first system of equations, which means they are both correct answers.
