Answer:

4m, 4m, and 5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information give;

  • Two sides of a triangle are equal in length
  • The third side is 3 m less than the common length
  • Perimeter of the rectangle is 13 m

We are required to determine the dimensions of the triangle;

  • Assuming the common sides are x m each
  • Then, the third side will be (2x-3) m
  • Perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three sides

Therefore;

(2x-3) + x + x = 13 m

4x - 3 = 13m

4x = 16 m

x = 4 m

and, 2x-3 = 5 m

Therefore, the lengths of the three sides of the triangle are 4m, 4m, and 5 m

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of a line that has a slope of 1/3 and passes through the point (-6, 0).
Vesna [10]

Answer: y = 1/3x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line in slope - point form is given as:

y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1} )

m = 1/3

y_{1} = 0

x_{1} = -6

substituting into the formula , we have

y - 0 = 1/3 ( x - {-6} )

y = 1/3 (x+6)

y = 1/3x +2

34kurt

Answer:

x>14

Step-by-step explanation:

X-3> 11

Add 3 to each side

X-3+3> 11+3

x > 14

The hole is open  at 14 since it is greater than  

( it would be closed if it were ≥)  The line goes to the right since it is greater than
