Choose a variable to represent one of the unknowns. Express the remaining unknowns in terms of the variable you chose in step 1.

Let's just choose "x" as our variable for the length of a side of the triangle.

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side.

A triangle has 3 sides. Make the smallest side x then the two equal sides that are double the smallest side are both equal to 2x

The perimeter of the triangle is 35 inches. Perimeter is the sum of all sides.

x + 2x + 2x = 35

5x = 35

x = 7

So the smallest side is 7, and the other two sides are 14.

patriot [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 9 + 9 / total of numbers or 10 = 65 ÷ 10 = 6.5 This is the mean.

3 - 6.5 = 3.5

4 - 6.5 = 2.5

5 - 6.5 = 1.5

6 - 6.5 = 0.5

6 - 6.5 = 0.5

7 - 6.5 = 0.5

8 - 0.5 = 7.5

8 - 0.5 = 7.5

9 - 0.5 = 8.5

9 - 0.5 = 8.5

MAD = 1.7

Coras kitten weighs 1,200 grams. If he weighed 550 grams at the last visit to the veterans office, what percent is the increase
Juli2301 [7.4K]
First, find the different of the two weights
d = 1,200 - 550
d = 650

The different of the weights is 650

Second, to find the percentage, we should compare the difference to the former weight. So we compare 650 to 1,200, then multiply it to 100%
percentage = 650/1,200 × 100%
percentage = (65,000/1,200) %
percentage = 51.17%
percentage = 51%

The percent of increase is 51%
