Answer:

a = 33ft

b= 66ft

c = 48 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • a (shortest side)= a
  • b (second side)=2a (twice the length of the shortest side)
  • c (third side)= a+15 ( 15 feet more than the length of the shortest side)

Since:  

Perimeter = a+b+c

Replacing with the values given:

147 = a+2a+(a+15)

147 = a+2a+a+15

147-15 = a+2a+a

132 = 4a

132/4 = a

33 ft= a  

Substituting a =33 in the other expressions:

b=2a = 2(33) = 66 ft

c= a+15 = 33+15 = 48 ft

Problem 81
netineya [11]

it hasn't been specified which ticket the question's is asking but I'm guessing the price of the adult ones so $30.00

altogether that's two adults and 3 children who all paid a total of $105.00

let's simplify that to algebra

children tickets = c adults tickets = a

3c + 2a = $105.00

we know that 1c is 0.5a because each child ticket is half of an adults one <em>as stated in the question</em>

so in terms of (adults) a: half of 3 meaning 3×0.5= $1.5 meaning 1.5a

so now <em>3c = 1.5a</em>

so we can substitute and have like terms

meaning 1.5a + 2a= $105

3.5a =$105.00

divide by 3.5 on both sides to get a by itself thus the value of a:

a = $30

so each adult tickets cost $30

What is the step by step equation to solve 5 (y + 2/5) = -13
Temka [501]

5( y + 2/5) = -13

Distribute the 5 by multiplying the 5 by each term inside the set of parentheses:

5y + 2 = -13

Subtract 2 from both sides:

5y = -15

Divide both sides by 5:

Y = 3

The answer is y = 3

Consider the function f(x). Select all of the following that include a vertical stretch of f(x)
zhenek [66]

Answer:

F , D, A

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know vertical stretch of f(x)  happens when we chane the value of the patameter a in this general form:

y = a. f(k(x-d))+ c  

when  |a| > 1 because When |a| > 1 (when a is greater than 1), the function is stretched vertically by a dilation factor of |a|.

So we choose, F , D, A
