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

How would the following graph look y=1/sin ?
seraphim [82]
Not necessarily the case, because the function tends to infinity when sin(x) approaches 0 and it is 1 (minimum value) when sin(x) = 1. Look at the picture to know what it looks like.

The polygon below represents a regular octagon.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

a). x = 135°

b). y = 45°

c). z = 67.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sum of interior angles of a regular polygon is represented by,

Sum of interior angles = (n - 2) × 180°

Here n = number of sides

For a regular octagon, n = 8

Sum of interior angles = (8 - 2) × 180° = 1080°

And measure of one interior angles = \frac{\text{Sum of interior angles}}{n}

                                                         x = \frac{1080}{8}

                                                         x = 135°

From the figure attached,

Angle C has been divided in 6 equal parts,

Therefor, m∠ECD = \frac{135}{6} = 22.5°

Since ∠ECD ≅ ∠CED,

m∠CED = 22.5°

Since m∠E = 135°

m∠FEC = 135 - 22.5 = 112.5°

In ΔFEC,

m∠FEC + m∠ECF + m∠CFE = 180°

112.5 + 22.5 + z = 180

z = 180 - 135

z = 45°

Similarly, in ΔCGF,

m∠CGF + m∠CFG + m∠GCF = 180°

(135 - y)° + (135 - z)° + 22.5° = 180°

270 - (y + z) + 22.5 = 180

292.5 - (y + 45) = 180

247.5 - y = 180

y = 247.5 - 180

y = 67.5°

Graph the following points on the graphing calculator:
Lerok [7]
We are given the following coordinates: 

(0,6), (π/2, 7); (π, 8); (3π/2, 7); and (2π, 6)

If we graph these points, we will observe that the function is a cosine function. Since the function does not pass through the origin. Instead, it has a y-intercept equal to 6.  <span />
