Answer:

2x+ 2.1 = 7.5

x=2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with sides x and y is

2x+y = P

I put y as the single side since the question said y is the shortest side.  It should say shorter sides if the two sides with the same length are smaller than the third.

We know y =2.1 and P = 7.5

Substituting these values in, we get

2x+ 2.1 = 7.5

Subtract 2.1 from each side

2x+2.1 -2.1 = 7.5 -2.1

2x= 5.4

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 5.4/2

x = 2.7 m

The Area of a rectangle is 3x2 + 9x square inches. The length of the rectangle is 3x inches.
Roman55 [17]

Width of the rectangle is x + 3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given area of the rectangle = 3x² + 9x in². Length = 3x in. Find width.

Area = length × width

3x² + 9x = 3x × width

∴ Width = 3x² + 9x/3x = x + 3 in
