The length of the longest slide is 5 inches. he other two sides will be 4  inches in length.

<h3>Length of the longest slide</h3>

Isosceles triangle

Given:

Total length=13 inches

Hence:

AC=BC<AB

Let AC=BC=x-1 inches

AB=x inches

Thus:

x-1+(x-1)+x=13

3x-2=13

3x=13+2

3x=15

divide both side by 3x

x=15/3

x=5 inches

Hence:

Other two side

x-1=5-1=4 inches

Therefore the length of the longest slide is 5 inches. he other two sides will be 4  inches in length.

The volume of this triangular prism is 140 cubic millimeters. What is the value of d? Please need help!!
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

7 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is the area of the base times it's length.

140/10 is 14

so the area of the triangle is 14

the formula for area of a triangle is base times height divided by 2

so

d x 4/ 2 = 14

multiply both sides by 2

d x 4 = 28

divide both sides by 4

d=7

Jared bought a Suzuki 1000 for $12,698. If it depreciates at a rate of 11% per year, how much will it be worth in 3 years
Serga [27]
Original price = P = $12,698
Depreciation rate = r = 11% = 0.11
Time in years = t = 3
New price = A

The formula used will be:

A=P(1-r)^{t}

Using the values, we get:

A=12698(1-0.11)^{3}=8951.70

Thus, the worth of Suzuki after 3 years will be $8951.70
