Lengths of three sides are: 13ft, 18ft and 21ft.

Explanation:

Let shorted side = y

so,

second side = y + 5

Third side = 2(y) - 5

Parameter of triangle = 1st side length + 2nd side length + 3rd side length

52 =  y + y+5 + 2y-5

52= 4y

y = 52/4 = 13 ft

So putting y in all three lengths we will get,

shortest side = 13 ft.

second side = 18 ft

Third side = 21 ft.

A baseball team played 160 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was
NeX [460]
Answer: They won 60 games and lost 100 games

Explanation: To find this, first, we need to keep in mind that for every 8 games they played, they won 3, and lost 5. With this, we need to do 160/8 and we will get 20. Finally, to find # of games won, we will do 3(20) which is 60, and to find # of games lost, we will do 5(20) which is 100. Hope this helped!

The perimeter of the triangle below is 75 m. Determine the measure of each side of the triangle
vaieri [72.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of all sides.

AB+AC+CB=75

(2x-9) + (2x+3) + (3x+4) = 75

Combine like terms:

(2x+2x+3x) + (-9+3+4) = 75

7x - 2 = 75

7x = 77

x=11

Replace 'x' with '11' in the above equations to find that:

AB = 2(11) - 9 = 22 - 9 = 13 m

AC = 2(11) + 3 = 22 + 3 = 25 m

CB = 3(11) + 4 = 33 + 4 = 37 m

13 + 25 + 37 = 75 m

If c is a constant such that 9x^2+10x+c is equal to the square of a binomial, then what is c?
stiv31 [10]
(9x^2+10x+c) = (3x+b)^2
= 9x^2 + 6b x+ b^2

1) 6b= 10
b+ 5/3

2) c=b^2
c= (5/3) ^2
c= 25/9

(9x^2+10x+25/9)=(3x+5/3)^2

I hope this helps:)
