Answer:

The length of the sides are 19 feet, 24 feet and 38 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of the first side of the triangle.

Let y represent the length of the second side of the triangle.

Let z represent the length of the third side of the triangle.

One side of a triangle is 2 times the second side. Assuming it is the first side of the triangle that is 2 times the second side. It means that

x = 2y

The third side is 5 feet longer than the second side. It means that

z = y + 5

The perimeter of a triangle is 81 feet. It means that

x + y + z = 81 - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 2y and z = y + 5 into equation 1. It becomes

2y + y + y + 5 = 81

4y = 81 - 5 = 76

y = 76/4 = 19

z = y + 5 = 19 + 5 = 24

x = 2y = 2×19 = 38

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Transform the inequality to a line

     2x - y < 4

     2x - y = 4

2.- Find the x and y-intercepts

If x = 0,     2(0) - y = 4

                    0 - y = 4

                         y = -4              (0, -4)

If y = 0        2x - 0 = 4

                        2x = 4

                          x = 2               (2, 0)

3.- Do not consider graphs 1 and 2 because do not go through (0, -4).

4.- The answer is graph three because of the inequality "<", we look for the shaded region below the line.

A fabric store cut 2,160 inches of ribbon into 12 pieces. how many yards long was each piece?
suter [353]
2160 inches into 12 pieces.

12 pieces = 2160 inches.

1 piece = 2160 / 12 = 180 inches.

But 12 inches = 1 foot, 3 feet = 1yard

3*12 = 36 inches = 1yard.


36 inches = 1yard.

180 inches =  180/36 = 5 yards.

Each piece was 5 yards long.

Zielflug [23.3K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  h ≤ 6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality is presumed to be ...

  15h +40 ≤ 140

  15h ≤ 100

  h ≤ 6 2/3

__

The graph shows h ≥ 0, because the inequality is only reasonable for h ≥ 0.
