Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.

Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.

(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y

Now, we can use substitution to solve.

(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17

Now, we plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.

x = 3*17
x = 51

Hope this helps!

The second side of a triangular deck is 3 feet longer than the shortest side and a third side that is 3 feet shorter than twice
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Shortest Side = 20 feet

Second Side = 23 feets

Third Side = 37 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shortest side of the desk be x. Hence,

Second side = (x + 3) feets

Third side = (2x - 3) feets

Perimeter = 80ft

x + (x + 3) + (2x - 3) = 80

                          4x = 80

                             x = 20

Hence, Second side = (20 + 3) feets

                                  = 23 feets

Third side = (40 - 3) feets

                 = 37 feets

Hence<u>,</u><u> shortest side is 20 feets, Second side is 23 feets, Third side is 37 feets.</u>

A quantity with an initial value of 7600 decays exponentially at a rate of 55% every 7 days. What is the value of the quantity a
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1539

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using the Exponential decay formula

= A(t) = Ao(1 - r) ^t

Ao = Initial Amount invested = 7600

r = Decay rate = 55% = 0.54

t = time in weeks = 2

Hence:

A(t) = 7600(1 - 0.55)²

A(t) = 7600 × (0.45)²

A(t) = 1539

Therefore, the value of the quantity after 2 weeks is 1539
