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.

Solve the system by the method of your choice x=3y-6,2x-6y=-12
igor_vitrenko [27]

The "system" of equations can't be solved for (x, y), because there's no "system" of equations given.  There's really only one equation.

Either of these two equations can be massaged to look exactly like the other one.  And if you graph both equations, you find that they're both the same line on the graph.

ANY point on the line is a solution to both equations ... and we all know how many different points there are on a line.
