The perimeter of a triangle is 6x. One side is x+3 and another side is 2x+4. What is the length of the 3rd side?

1 answer:

6 0

Let y = the length of the 3rd side
x+3 + 2x+4 + y = 6x
x + 2x + 3 + 4 + y = 6x
3x + 7 +y = 6x
7 + y = 3x
y = 3x - 7
The length of the third side in terms of x is 3x-7

The average (arithmetic mean) of y numbers is x. if 30 is added to the set of numbers, then the average will be x - 5. what is t

Anastasy [175]

Given,

AM of y numbers = x.

Let the sum of y numbers be s.

AM of y numbers = x

$\frac{s}{y} = x$

$s = y*x$

Given, when 30 is added to the y numbers, the AM becomes x - 5.

$\frac{s + 30}{y + 1} = x - 5$

$\frac{y*x + 30}{y +1} = x - 5
$

$y*x + 30 = (x -5)( y +1)$

$y*x + 30 = y*x + x - 5y -5$

$5y = x - 5 -30 = x - 35
$

$y = \frac{x -35}{5}$
