Answer:
Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
I can do this using calculus but the algebra will be a bit messy.
Let the 2 equal sides of isosceles triangle be x and the base be y units long.
Then perimeter p = 2x + y.
Area A = 0.5yh where h is the altitude of the triangle.
h = sqrt [x^2 - (0.5y)^2]
= [x^2 - (0.5y)^2]^0.5
So A = 0.5y * [x^2 - (0.5y)^2]^0.5
From the perimeter formula y = p - 2x so:
A = 0.5(p-2x) * [x^2 - (0.5(p-2x)^2]^0.5
A = 0.5(p-2x) * [x^2 - 0.25(p^2 - 4xp + 4x^2)]^0.5
A = 0.5(p-2x) * [x^2 - 0.25p^2 + xp - x^2]^0.5
A = (0.5p-x) * [xp - 0.25p^2]^0.5
We now find the derivative and equate it to zero to find the value of x which corresponds to a maximum area.
We use the product rule:
dA/dx = (0.5p-x)* 0.5(xp - 0.25p^2)^(-0.5) * p - 1(xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5 = 0
p(0.5p - x) / (2((xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5 - (xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5 = 0
p(0.5p - x) / (2((xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5 = (xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5
Now multiplying though by (2((xp - 0.25p^2)^0.5 :-
p(0.5p - x) = 2 (xp - 0.25p^2)
0.5p^2 - px = 2px - 0.5p^2
p^2 = 3px
x = p^2/3p = p/3
So for a maximum value of the area x = p/3.
But y = p - 2x
= p - 2(p/3)
= p - 2/3p
= p/3
- but we've just shown that x = p/3
That means that x = y and the triangle is Equilateral.

Three students used factoring to solve a quadratic equation.
x² + 17x + 72 = 12
Jordan's Solution Keith's Solution Randall's Solution
x² + 17x + 72 = 12 x² + 17x + 72 =12 x² +17x +72 = 12
(x + 8)(x + 9)= 12 x² + 17x +60 =0 x2 +17x = -60
x+8=12 & x+9=12 (x +5)(x +12) +0 x(x +17) = -60
x + 5 =0 & x + 12 = 0 x = -60 & x +17 = -60
The equation was solved correctly by ____. The solutions of the equation are ____
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -5 and x = -12 are the solutions.
Looks like Keith's solution is the correct one as he got as far as
x + 5 = 0 and x + 12 = 0.

What is Quadratic equation?An algebraic equation with the second degree of the variable is called an Quadratic equation.
Given that;
Equation is,
⇒ x² + 2x + 1
Now, We can use the Quadratic Formula for x as;
⇒ x² + 2x + 1
⇒ x = - 2 ± √2² - 4×1×1 / 2
⇒ x = - 2 ± √4 - 4 / 2
⇒ x = - 2 / 2
⇒ x = - 1
Thus, The value of x by using the Quadratic Formula is,

Answer:
P(A) = 13/18
P(B) = 7/18
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Sum greater than 5
If the sum needs to be >5, then it can be 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12.
There are 26 out of 36 events where the sum is >5, thus P(A) = 26/36 = 13/18.
B) Sum divisible by 4 or 6
The sum ranges from 2 to 12, there are two methods to calculate this:
B1) Method 1: Calculate the frequency one by one
The sums divisible by 4 or 6 are S = {4, 6, 8, 12}. There are 9 of them, n(S) = 14. Thus P(B) = 14/36 = 7/18.
B2) Method 2: Use the rule of not mutually exclusive events
Not mutually exclusive events (might also be called mutually inclusive) happens when two events can happen together at the same time. In this problem, the sum might be divisible by 4 and 6 at the same time, i.e. the number 12.
The common formula for not mutually exclusive events is P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B). Nb: P(A) isn't talking about the previous problem, nor does P(B) talk about the second section as a whole; the terms P(A) and P(B) will be utilized next, explained with their uses.
P(A) = probability of the sum being divisible by 4, i.e. the number 4, 8 and 12
P(A) = (3+5+1) / 36 = 9/36 = 1/4
P(B) = probability of the sum being divisible by 6, i.e. the number 6 and 12
P(B) = (5+1) / 36 = 6/36 = 1/6
P(A∩B) = probability of the sum being divisible both by 4 and 6, i.e. the number 12
P(A) = 1 / 36 = 1/36
Here comes the use of formula P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)
P(A∪B) = 1/4 + 1/6 - 1/36 = 7/18
Nb: As you can see, both method B1 and B2 give the same answer. Method B1 is usually easier to use when facing simpler problems like this. I'd recommend using method B2 for more complex and difficult questions, such as when you can't visualize the problem with a table because there are too much sets of variables.

A 90% confidence interval is centered at a _____ and is 90% sure to contain the _______.
a) statistic, variable
b) parameter, statistic
c) statistic, parameter
d) parameter, variable
e) variable, parameter
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
A 90% confidence interval is centered at a parameter and is 90% sure to contain the statistic.
When you are running a statistical test, you can create a confidence interval centered at the appropriate parameter (such as the mean) to see if the statistic stated in your null hypothesis is true if it's contained in the interval. Whatever the confidence level is determines how wide the interval will be, and as such, will determine how likely the interval will catch the statistic in question.

Quadrilateral FGHI is similar to quadrilateral JKLM. Find the measure of side JK
Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.
Answer:
Heyyyy!!
The answer is 66.9
please read the explanation... it will help... I promise
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay... Here we go...
The context mentions that the two quadrilaterals are similar... meaning their sides are proportional...
So... you basically have to find the scale factor...
(the math itself is easier than the explanation...
51/16 = 3.1875 (that is the number we multiplied the sides of quadrilateral FGHI to get quadrilateral JKLM...
so to get side JK all you have to do is multiply that scale factor by side FG... which after the use of a calculator results in 66.9 (i rounded, and used a calculator... lol)
but yeah... i hope this helps...

Consider parallelogram ABCD below.
Use the information given in the figure to find m of angle B, x, and m of angle BCA.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Opposite angles in a parallelogram are congruent, so angle B measures 82 degrees.
2) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so 12=6x. Hence, x=2.
3) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so by the alternate interior angles theorem, the answer is 62 degrees.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent , then
∠ B = ∠ D = 82°
the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and congruent , then
AD = BC , that is
6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 2
∠ BCA and ∠ DAC are alternate angles and are congruent , then
∠ BCA = ∠ DAC = 62°

We can use the zero product property to find the zeros
4x+3 =0 6x-3 =0
4x =-3 6x = 3
x = -3/4 x = 3/6
x = -3/4 x = 1/2

Graph the function on the coordinate plain
A)what are the x intercepts
B)what is the y intercepts
C)what is the maximum and minimum value
Answer:
it should be C I did something very very similar to this but different questions
Answer:
a) {-6, 2}
b) -12
c) minimum: -16
Step-by-step explanation:
I find a graphing calculator to be a big help. Its graph is attached.
a) The function can be factored as:
f(x) = (x -2)(x +6)
The factors are zero at the x-intercepts: x = 2, x = -6.
b) The y-intercept is the function value when x=0. That is the constant in the function. The y-intercept is -12.
c) The leading coefficient of the function is positive, so its graph opens upward. The extreme value is a minimum. It is found on the axis of symmetry, at the x-value that is halfway between the x-intercepts: x = (2-6)/2 = -2. The function value there is ...
f(-2) = (-2-2)(-2+6) = -4(4) = -16
The minimum is f(-2) = -16.
