Answer:
The sides are
6
inches,
8
inches and
10
inches
Explanation:
I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'
In this case the question can be answered. If
x
is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4
x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24
10/4x=20
x=8
Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:the ratio of the % increase has a different numerator from decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to take the square root across the inequality sign to make it plus or minus 3 squared.
The answer will therefore be C
Charmaine= x
William=x+3
3 times Charmaine = 3x
2times William = 2x+6
5x+6=76
5x=76-6
5x=70
X=14
Charmaine is 14
William is 3 years older so is 17
Check:
17x2= 34
14x3=42
34+42=76
So Charmaine is 14
William is 17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the complete question attached in figure.
Consider
Hadley = x
Parker = y
Greenville = z
Distance between Greenville and Parker = yz = 29
Given that distance between Hadley and Greenville is 13 miles less than the distance between Parker and Greenville.
xz = yz -13 --- (1)
Distance between hardley and greenville = xz = ?
From (1)
xz = 29 -13
xz = 16 miles
So Alan is right that distance between Hadley and Greenville is 16 miles
