If the  perimeter of a triangle is 19 cm. The lengths of 3 sides is: a = 8, b = 7, c = 4.

<h3>Parimeter</h3>

Let a = longest

Let b= shortest

Let c= third side

a = 2c

a = (b+ c) - 3

a + 3 = b + c

Using three variables to solve the expression for perimeter

Perimeter= 19 cm

a+ b + c = 19

a + (a + 3) = 19

2a + 3 = 19

2a= 16

Divide both side by 2a

a=16/2

a = 8

a = 2c

8 = 2c  

c=8/2

c = 4

a + b + c= 19

8 + b + 4 = 19

12 + b = 19

b=19-12

b = 7

Hence,

a = 8, b = 7, c = 4

Therefore If the  perimeter of a triangle is 19 cm. The lengths of 3 sides is: a = 8, b = 7, c = 4.

The complete question is:

Perimeter of triangle is 19cm. If the length of the longest side is twice that of the shortest side and 3 less than the sum of the lengths of the 2 sides find lengths of 3 sides.

It takes 5 days to repair 1,250 meters of road. At this rate, how many days will it take to repair 8 kilometers of road?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer :

no. of days used to repair 1250m of road = 5

no. of days used to repair 1m of road = 5/1250

no. of days used to repair 8000m of road (8*1000m ) = 5/1250*8000= 32 days

A Ferris wheel can accommodate 65 people in 15 minutes. How many people could ride the Ferris wheel in 2 hours? What was that ra
densk [106]

Answer:

520 people in 2 hours

rate = 260 people per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

change minutes to hours

15 minute* 1 hr/60 minutes = .25 hrs

65 people      x people

---------------  = ------------------

.25 hrs            2 hrs


using cross products

65 * 2 = .25 * x

130 = .25x

divide by .25

130/.25 = .25x/.25

520 =x

520 people

65 people      x people

---------------  = ------------------

.25 hrs            1 hrs

using cross products

65 = .25x

divide by .25

65/.25 = .25x/.25

260 =x

260 people in 1 hour

rate = 260 people per hour

What are the slope and y-intercept for the graph of y – 3x = -1?
Liula [17]

Answer:

Slope (m) = 3, y-intercept (b) = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write the equation in y = mx + b.

To do this, add 3x to both sides.

y = 3x - 1 is your result.

Now, we have everything we need to do determine our slope and y-intercept in just this equation alone.

Remember, m = slope and b = y-intercept.

In this equation:

m = 3

b = -1

So your slope is 3, and your y-intercept is -1
