We have the next information

x= the shortest side measure

y= the second side measure

y=x+100

z= the third side measures

z=x+700

We know also that the perimeter is 2900 ft

Therefore the equation for the perimeter of the triangle will be

P=x+y+z2900=x+x+100+x+700

we sum like terms

2900=3x+800

then we isolate the x

3x=2900-8003x=2100x=\frac{2100}{3}=700

therefore

x=700ft

y=700+100=800ft

z=700+700=1400ft

The lengths of the sides of the lote are 700 ,800, and 1400 ft,

What's the difference between multiples and factors and how do I remember the difference?
Nady [450]

A factor is a number that leaves no remainder behind after it divides the specific number. On the contrary, multiple is a number reached by multiplying a given number by another.

1.) Solve 2x^2-12x+20=0 using the quadratic solution set? What is the solution set?
marshall27 [118]
Please, share just ONE problem at a time.  Thanks.

<span>Solve 2x^2-12x+20=0:
Simplify this by dividing each term by 2:  x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0

Identify a, b and c:  a=1, b=-6 and c=10.  Then b^2=36.

Write out the solutions using the quadratic formula:

        6 plus or minus sqrt(36-40)
x = ---------------------------------------
                            2

sqrt(36-40) = sqrt(-4) = plus or minus i2

Then:
 
         6 plus or minus i2
x = --------------------------- (answer)
                  2</span>
