➷ 1st side = x - 3

2nd side = x

3rd side = x - 1

Form an equation:

x - 3 + x + x - 5 = 28

Simplify:

3x - 8 = 28

Add 8 to both sides:

3x = 36

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 12

first length = 12 - 3 = 9 inches

second length = 12 inches

third length = 12 - 5 = 7 inches

Consider the figure below where MN is parallel to PQ, angle PTS is equal to (19x +5) and angle NST is equal to (17x +15), determ
topjm [15]

From the figure shown where MN is parallel to PQ:

m<MSR   =  100°

m<STQ   =  80°

By carefully observing the figure shown:

<MSR is vertically opposite to <NST

Vertically opposite angles are equal

m<NST  =  (17x  +  15)

<NST is alternative to <PTS

Alternative angles are equal

Therefore, m<NST  =  m<PTS

m<NST = 17x + 15

m<PTS  =  19x + 5

17x  +  15   =  19x  +  5

19x  -  17x =  15  -  5

2x   =  10

x   =  10/2

x   =  5

m<NST  =  17x + 15

m<NST  =  17(5)  +  15

m<NST  =  100°

Since m<MSR  =  m<NST

m<MSR   =  100°

m<PTS  =  19x + 5

m<PTS  =  19(5)  +  5

m<PTS  =  100°

m<PTS  +  m<STQ  =  180° (Sum of angles on a straight line)

100   +  m<STQ   =  180

m<STQ   =  180 - 100

m<STQ   =  80°

From the figure shown where MN is parallel to PQ:

m<MSR   =  100°

m<STQ   =  80°

an employee at an arcade determined he could use the equation y=50-2x to predict the number of tokens a guest has,y, based on th
givi [52]

Answer:

The rate at which how many tokens a person loses per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we move around the terms in the equation to fit standard form, it will be easier to determine the slope.

y = 50 - 2x

y = -2x + 50

We know that the slope is the coefficient of the x variable, so m = -2 or \frac{-2}{1}.

Since the slope is negative, we know that the line will go down as x increases.  Since the slope is multiplied by the number of minutes x, we know that the slope represents the typical rate at which a guest spends tokens per minute. In simpler words, how many tokens a person loses every minute.

Yanka [14]
96 in total since 3 times 12 equals 36. Then you have 4 times 12 which equals 48. Also you have 2 times 6 equals 12. THEN you add it together to get 96.
