Answer:

x = 12, sides = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

\overline{ST}=2x-1\\\overline{SU}=5x-37\\\overline{TU}=x+11

Since \triangle{STU} is equilateral, all three sides are equal. Therefore:

\left[\begin{array}{l}y=2x-1\\y=5x-37\\y=x+11\end{array}\right]

Substituting y = x + 11:

\left[\begin{array}{l}x+11=2x-1\\x+11=5x-37\end{array}\right]

Solving for x:

x+11=2x-1\\11=x-1\\12=x

Substituting x = 12:

y=x+11\\y=12+11\\y=23

Thus, <em>x</em> = 12 and the length of each side is 23.

The square of Mark's age 3 years ago is 6 times the age he will be in 9 years. What is his age now?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Age= 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be for age at the moment

(a-3)^2 =6(a+9)

a^2-6a+9=6a+54

a^2-12a-45

(a-15)(a+3)

a=15 or a=-3

Age cannot be negative (-)

Therefore

Age =15
