Answer:

Shortest= 28ft

Length=56 ft

Third side=47 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shortest side be x then the length of the other side that is twice the shortest side will be 2x

The third side being 19 ft more than the shortest side will be x+19

Perimeter is found by adding all the three sides, A=l+w+h hence

X+2x+x+19=131 ft

4x+19=131 ft

4x=112 ft

X=112/4=28 ft

2x=2*28=56

X+19=28+19=47

To prove, if we add 28+56+47=131 ft

What is the equation of the line through (1,4) and (2,2)?<br> y= _x + __
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

y = -2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

m = (2-4)/(2-1) = -2/1

m = -2

y = -2x + c

When x = 1, y = 4

4 = -2(1) + c

c = 4 + 2 = 6

y = -2x + 6
