Add them all up and if they add up to 180 then your side lengths are good
Answer:
x = 3
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of substitution is when one solves an equation for one of the variables, and then substitutes the expression into the other equation. After doing so, one will solve the other equation for the remaining variable and then backsolve for the first variable.
4x + 2y = 12
x = y + 3
The second equation is already sovled for parameter (x), subttiute this into the other equation,
4(y + 3) + 2y = 12
Distribute,
4y + 12 + 2y = 12
Simplify,
6y + 12 = 12
Inverse operations,
6y + 12 = 12
-12
6y = 0
/6
y = 0
Backsolve for (x), substitute the value of (y) into the equation for (x) and solve,
x = y + 3
x = 0 + 3
x = 3

Answer: 80 ounces</h3>
Work Shown:
1 pound = 16 ounces
5*(1 pound) = 5*(16 ounces)
5 pounds = 80 ounces
Say you're making a recipe that needs 2 1/2 cups of water. But you want to make two servings, so you need to know what 2 1/2 + 2 1/2 equals. Or maybe you need a half cup of milk but you don't have enough. You need to know how much left you need so you can buy or borrow the right amount.
