X + 2x + (13 + x) = 29
3x + x + 13 = 29
4x = 29 - 13
4x = 16
x = 16/4
x = 4

The length of the shortest side is 4 ft

Answer:

The shortest side is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the border of a geometric figure and corresponds to the sum of the length of all its sides.

So the perimeter in the case of a triangle is the sum of its three sides:

L₁ + L₂ + L₃ =Perimeter

In this case, the perimeter is known and it is necessary to calculate the value of the shortest side. In that case it will be called L₁. So, you know:

  • L₁= shortest side
  • L₂=twice the length of the shortest side → L₂=2*L₁
  • L₃=largest side (13 feet more than the shortest side) → L₃=L₁ + 13
  • Perimeter= 29 feet

Replacing:

L₁ + 2*L₁ + L₁ + 13= 29

Solving:

(1+2+1)*L₁ + 13= 29

4*L₁ + 13=29

4*L₁ = 29-13

4*L₁ =16

L₁= 16÷4

L₁=4

<u><em>The shortest side is 4 feet.</em></u>

X: x is a positive counting number less 25}
rewona [7]

Answer:

As the givens set A contains 24 elements.

Therefore,

The Cardinality of the set A = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the given set is A

A = {x: x is a positive counting number less 25}

The set of natural numbers is often termed as the Counting number set.

  • As the counting numbers are less than 25.

Thus,

Set A will be:

A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24}

 

<u>The Cardinality of the set</u>

The Cardinality of the set represents the total number of elements in a given set.

As the givens set A contains 24 elements.

Therefore,

The Cardinality of the set A = 24

Xy has 10 pets: 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 alpacas and 1 bunny. If he wants to arrange them in a row and make sure the pets are always gr
Anastaziya [24]

The number of ways pets can be arranged in group according to the species is  in a row 288 ways.

Pets can be grouped by permutation concept as follows.

Total number of pets = 10

Number of dogs = 4

Number of cats = 3

Number of alpacas = 2

Number of bunny = 1

The number of ways pets can be arranged in group according to the species in a row as,

⇒ (4!)(3!)(2!)(1!)

⇒ (24)(6)(2)(1)

⇒ 288

Hence we can conclude that the number of ways pets can be arranged in group according to the species in a row is 288 ways.
