75 because 7+77=84 and 84-9=75
The perimeter of the smaller triangle is 8+12+16=36. The big triangle has perimeter 54. So our scale factor is 54/36=3/2. So we scale up the short side, 8, by 3/2, giving our answer:
Answer: 12
X6 – 9x3 + 8 = 0
let u = x^3
u^2 - 9u + 8 = 0
(u-8)(u-1) = 0
u = 1,8
back substitute
1 = x^3
8 = x^3
