Perimeter = Side + Side + Side
Side 1 = x
Side 2 = x + 7
Side 3 = 2x-7

Plug into the equation:
84 = x + (x + 7) + (2x-7)
84 = x + x + 7 + 2x - 7

Combine like terms:
84 = 4x

Divide by 4 and solve for x:
21 = x

Side 1 = 21

Side 2 = 28
21+7=28

Side 3 = 35
21(2) - 7 = 42 - 7 = 35

Bella spent 15% of her paycheck at the mall, and 40% of that was spent at the
Bingel [31]

Answer:

$229

Step-by-step explanation:

Pay check = P

so

Total spent movie  T = $13.74

T = 0.4 *0.15* P = $13.74

The 40% on the Movie Theatre spending is part of the 15% spending at the mall.

So 40% of 15% of the Pay Check = $13.74

P = $13.74 / (0.4*0.15)  =  34.35/0.15 = 229
