in a triangle two sides of the same length the ratio of each of these sides to the third side is 5:3 if the perimeter of the tri

AveGali [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle equals side 1 plus side 2 plus side 2

P = s1 + s2 + s3 side 1 = side 2 = x

x/side 3 = 5 / 3

x = (5/3) side 3

x (3/5) = side 3

perimeter = 65 slove for x

65 = x + x + 3x/5

325 = 5x + 5x + 3x

325 = 13X

25 = x equal side 1 and side 2

side 3 = 25(3/5) = 15

Daryl's Oreo factory is able to produce 3/4 tons of Oreos in 1 1/2 weeks. At this rate, how long will it take to produce 2

dolphi86 [110]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} tons&weeks\\ \cline{1-2}\\ \frac{3}{4}&1\frac{1}{2}\\\\ 2&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{3}{4}~~}{2}=\cfrac{~~1\frac{1}{2}~~}{x}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{3}{4}~~}{2}=\cfrac{~~\frac{3}{2}~~}{x}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{3}{4}~~}{\frac{2}{1}}=\cfrac{~~\frac{3}{2}~~}{\frac{x}{1}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{3}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{3}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}=\cfrac{3}{2x}\implies 6x=24\implies x=\cfrac{24}{6}\implies x=4$
