1.3.33 Question Help A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3078 mi. The shortest side measures 71 mi less than the middle side,
maksim [4K]

Answer:

the shortest side is 855 miles long.

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b + c = 3078 miles

a = b - 71

c = b + 371

=>

(b-71) + b + (b+371) = 3078

3b + 300 = 3078

3b = 2778

b = 926 miles

a = 926 - 71 = 855 miles

c = 926 + 371 = 1297 miles
