A trainee has 3 sides and each side was increase by 5 inches.

Let x be the length of one side. You need to subtract 15 from the perimeter:

The equation can be 3x = 60 -15

Simplify:

3x = 45

Divide each side by 3:

X = 15

The original length of each side was 15 inches.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C. x³+10x²−5x+5

E. 7x⁵+4x²

F. x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph they described should look something like the one i drew below.

So all you have to do is look at the number with the highest exponent.

If the exponent is an odd number and the x is positive then that function will have an end behavior like the picture i posted.

x³ is good

-x³ is bad because of the negative sign

x² is bad because exponent is even

x⁷ is good

123x¹ is good

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure to better understand the problem

Let

x ----> the number of apples

y ----> the number of peppers

we have

x=3\ apples

y=1\ peppers

The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is equal to

\frac{x}{y}

substitute

\frac{3}{1}

therefore

Billy is incorrect. The ratio of the number of apples to the number of peppers is 3:1
