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>

samanthas house is 72 feet wife. in a photograph the width of the house was 4 inches, and its height was 2.5 inches. what is the
Anna11 [10]
So to find the ratio of the actual house to the house in the picture you would divide 72/4 to get 18. this means that the ratio is 18:1. Now multiply 2.5 x18 to get the real life height of the house. 2.5x18=45.
So the house is 45 feet tall.
Please anyone correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is right.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of wrapping paper sold

y ----> the number of magazines sold

we know that

The classes sold 72 items

so

x+y=72 ----> equation A

The classes earned $222 for their school

so

3.50x+2.75y=222 ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is (32,40)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

(05.02)A doghouse is to be built in the shape of a right trapezoid, as shown below. What is the area of the doghouse?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

32.5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a trapezoid is a= 1/2*(b1+b2)*h. B1 and b2 would represent the two bases given and therefore doesn't matter what order you put them in. Plug in all values into the equation and you'll get 1/2*(5+8)*5 then 1/2*(13)*5. Next simplify to get 6.5*5 which then equates to 32.5.
