Let the second side be x

then,
first side = twice the length of the second side
= 2x

third side = 20 feet less than three times the second side
3 (second side ) - 20
= 3 (2x) -20
= 6x - 20

perimete of a triangle = sum of all sides,

substitute the values we know,
and you'll be left with this equation

106 = x + 2x + 6x - 20
106+ 20 = 9x
126 = 9x
126/9 = x
14 = x

so,

measure of second side = x = 14 feet

measure of first side = 2x = 2 (14) = 28 feet

measure of thurd side = 6x - 20 = 6 (14)-20 = 84- 20 = 64 feet.

<span><span>4a+6b=10 
4a=10-6b 
a=(10-6b)/4 
a=(5-3b)/2

Using the quadratic formula to solve x2 + 20 = 2x, what are the values of x?
jeka94

by Quadratic formula , x^2 + 20 = 2x , values of x are x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}} . None of mentioned options are correct according to question!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , expression  x2 + 20 = 2x or , x^2 + 20 = 2x .

We know that Quadratic formula is :

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

x^2 + 20 = 2x

⇒ x^2-2x+20=0

a=1\\b=-2\\c=20

Putting this value in equation x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} :

⇒ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

⇒ x = \frac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(20)}}{2(1)}

⇒ x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4-80}}{2}

⇒ x = (\frac{2 \pm 2i\sqrt{19}}{2})

⇒ x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}}

Therefore , by Quadratic formula , x^2 + 20 = 2x , values of x are x = 1 \pm (1)i\sqrt{19}} . None of mentioned options are correct according to question!
