The perimeter will also be scaled down by half if the original triangle if it were scaled down by half.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a triangle?</h3>

The total length of a triangle's boundary is referred to as its perimeter. It is the total of the triangle's three sides. A triangle's perimeter will be equal to a+b+c if its three sides are a, b, and c.

The sides of the original triangle are:

x+3, 2x+4, 3x-1

The perimeter of the triangle will be

x+3+2x+4+3x-1\\=6x+6

If it were scaled down by half then new sides will be

\frac{x+3}{2} , \frac{2x+4}{2} , \frac{x-1}{2}

So, the perimeter of the new triangle will be

\frac{x+3}{2} + \frac{2x+4}{2} + \frac{3x-1}{2}\\=\frac{x+3+2x+4+3x-1}{2} \\=\frac{6x+6}{2}\\ =3x+3

This is half of the original triangle's perimeter. Therefore, the perimeter of the new triangle is half of the perimeter of the original triangle.

Using n for the variable, write an algebraic expression that represents a number that is divisible by the given number. (Hint: A
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

a) 5n\\b) 10n\\c) 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'n' be any integer i.e. a number from the set {....., -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3, ..... }

so 'n' can be termed as the variable here.

A number 'q' that can be divided by a a given number 'p' can be written as:

n \times p

When divided by 'p' :

\dfrac{q}{p} = \dfrac{n \times p}{p}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{q}{p} = n

So, The number 'q' is completely divisible by 'p' leaving 'n' as the quotient.

Using this concept, let us solve the questions:

a) Using 'n' as the variable, a number that is divisible by 5 can be written as:

5n

b) Using 'n' as the variable, a number that is divisible by 10 can be written as:

10n

c) Using 'n' as the variable, a number that is divisible by 3 can be written as:

3n
