Asocial networking site recorded that 80% of the people who became members of the site one month were between 30 and 40 years old. the equation below represents this information, where x represents the total number of people who became members of the site that month:

x = 0.8x + 72

how many people who became members of the site that month were between 30 and 40 years of age?

112
288
360
432

i think the answer is d im not sure

what steps are you having us

step-by-step explanation:

isocolese triangle

we know that the line connect a and b is the hyptonuse

so first find the hypotonuse length using the distance formula, call the length c

since it is an isocolese triangle, the lengths of the legs are the same

using pythagorean theorem,

in this case, a=b since isocolese triangle so we get

or

we can find c so we can find the distances

we know that if we draw 2 circles, each has center at a and b, and find where they intersect, we can the 2 possible locations for c

if a has center at (xa,ya) and b has center at (xb,yb), then we can solve where

and

intersect to find where they intersect

i'm not going to put an example because i have to go to class. i hope this explanation is enough
