Answer:
15 cm, 15 cm, 11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
let the equal sides be x then the third side is x - 4
The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides and is 41 cm , then
x + x + x - 4 = 41
3x - 4 = 41 ( add 4 to both sides )
3x = 45 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 15
x - 4 = 15 - 4 = 11
The sides are 15 cm, 15 cm, 11 cm

150cm...........................
We need to buy concrete floor paint for 1379 ft² and 163.2 feet lattice for the outside of the shed.
Solution:
To know how much paint we need to buy, we should know the total floor area to be painted.Think about the floor as four rectangles and a triangle.
The area of the 31' by 36' main rectangle is 31*36 = 1116 ft²
The area of the next largest rectangle is 10*21.5 = 215 ft²
The area of the next to the smallest rectangle is 2.5*12 =30 ft²
The smallest rectangle area is 3*4.5 = 13.5 ft²
Lastly, ½*3*3 = 4.5 ft² is the area of the triangle.
The total floor area is the sum of the five areas:
Area = 1116 + 215 + 30 + 13.5 + 4.5 = 1379 ft²
To know how much lattice is needed for the outside of the shed, we calculate for the perimeter by taking the sum of the length of each side. Starting on the right side then clockwise we have
Perimeter = 36 + 31 + (36 - 21.5 - 3) + 4.2 + (10 - 3) + 21.5 + 3 + 4.5 + 3
+ 2.5 + 12 + 2.5 + (31 + 10 - 4.5 - 12)
= 163.2 feet
We would need to buy 163.2 feet lattice for the outside shed. Take note that the doors are included here. But if the two 3 feet doors are not included in the lattice, we will just subtract the length of the two doors from the perimeter. Thus, the lattice needed would only be 163.2 - 3*2 = 157.2 feet.
Answer:
$398 and $796
Step-by-step explanation:
w = cost of the washer
d = cost of the dryer
w + d = $1194
w = 2d
Substitute the w into the first equation.
2d + d = $1194
3d = $1194
d = $398
Substitute d into either equation.
w=2(398)
w=$796
