Answer:

13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to solve for x. Here is what we know.

The perimeter is the sum of all of the sides of the triangle.

The perimeter is equal to 30 inches.

So if we add up all of the sides and set that equal to 30 then you can solve for x.

30= (2x+3) + (x) + (4x-8)

Then combine the like terms.

30=2x+x+4x +3-8

Then solve for x.

30+5=7x\\\frac{35}{7} =x\\x=5

Now that you know x you can plug it into the equation for the longest side.

2x+3\\2(5)+3\\10+3\\13  inches

Answer:

Longest side = 13 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of triangle =  30 inches

x + 4x - 8 + 2x +3    =  30

x + 4x + 2x - 8 + 3 = 30

                   7x - 5 = 30

                          7x = 30 + 5

                          7x = 35

                            x = 35/7

         x = 5

Longest side is the hypotenuse.

Longest side = 2x + 3 = 2*5 + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13 inches

If the sales tax in Maple Town is 9.5%, how much would an ice cream of $4.25 cost with the tax added? Please explain.
faltersainse [42]
To find the sales tax, you need to find 9.5% of 4.25

4.25*.095 = <span>.40375

Now we need to add the sales tax to the price.

4.25 + </span>.40375 = <span>4.65375
Because dollars one have 2 decimal points we should round this to 4.65

Hope this helped!

Solve the following for the x and y values. X being 0 when solving for Y, and vice versa.
Aleonysh [2.5K]
It states your "X" will be zero when solving for "Y". So when solving for "Y" your equation would be; 0+y=4 Then you solve. Y=4 Then you do the same with the "X": X+0=4. Then you solve. X=4 It would end up being (4(x),4(y) ) Then do the same for the next problem.

1. What is the value of x? Do not convert to decimal. Keep your answer in exact (radical) form. Show all of your work. This is P
lesya [120]

Answer:

The value of x is \sqrt{113}.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that hypotenuse is \sqrt{177}. So, the legs would be x and 8.

Let's use Pythagoras theorem,

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

Plug in the numbers to solve for x.

x^{2} +8^{2} =\sqrt{177} ^{2}

Simplify it

x^{2} +64 =177

Subtract both sides 64.

x^{2} =113

Take square root on both sides

x=\sqrt{113}

We can not simplify the radical.

So, let's keep this as answer.
