HOW TO SOLVE:
1) use x as a variable
2) the starting equation is:
4x + 3x + 5x = 18
3) add all the like terms on the left side of the equation:
12x = 18
4) Divide by 12 on both sides:
x=1.5
5) Find the lengths of the sides:
- 4x = 4(1.5) = 6
- 3x = 3(1.5) = 4.5
- 5x = 5(1.5) = 7.5
SO, the lengths of the sides of this triangle are: 6, 4.5, and 7.5
Answer:
A) 29/8
Step-by-step explanation:
On the left side of the equals sign, we have five x's and nine -1's.
On the right side of the equals sign, we have three -x's and twenty 1's.
Both sides are equal, so:
5(x) + 9(-1) = 3(-x) + 20(1)
5x − 9 = -3x + 20
Add 3x to both sides.
8x − 9 = 20
Add 9 to both sides.
8x = 29
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 29/8
The answer to the question is A
Answer:
fourteen and one-hundred-two
Step-by-step explanation:
we tend to read "." as "point" but the proper reading would be to read the number left to the decimal point (14), add the word "and" and then read the number to the right of the decimal point (102)
