Question

Clara is building a triangular garden. She wants the length of the longest side to be three more than twice as long as the length of the shortest side, and the third side will be twelve feet long.
What expression could she write to determine the perimeter of the triangle if s represents the length of the shortest side?

Answer 1

The garden's perimeter = 3+2s+12+s.

The simpler version of the expression = 15+3s.

The variable's frequency in the abbreviated statement is 3.

Calculation of a triangle's perimeter:

The triangle's perimeter is equivalent to the sum of its edges, where a, b, and c are its sides.

• Let the triangle's longest edge be 'a'
• shorter one to be 's'
• the opposite side 'b'

With the information provided, the formula will become 'a = 3+2s'

and 'b' is also 12 ft.

Triangle perimeter =the total of its edges

= a + b + s                                                                    

= 3 + 2s + 12 + s

= 15 + 3s

As a result, the garden's perimeter = 3+2s+12+s.

Therefore,the simpler version of the formula is 15+3s.

The variable's coefficient in the abbreviated statement is 3.
