Answer:

41 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply the theorem below:

If two similar triangles have a scale factor of a : b, then the ratio of their perimeters is a : b.

Let x be the perimeter of the smaller triangle

If the ratio of their heights is 6:5 and the perimeter of the larger triangle is 49.2 feet,

6:5=49.2:x

6/5=49.2/x

Cross multiplying

6x=49.2 X 5

6x=246

x=246/6=41

The perimeter of the smaller triangle is 41 feet

3 (x -1) = 5x +3 -2x
Vika [28.1K]

Steps to solve:

3(x - 1) = 5x + 3 - 2x

~Distribute left side

3x - 3 = 5x + 3 - 2x

~Combine like terms

3x - 3 = 3x - 3

~Subtract 3x to both sides

-3 = -3

~Add 3 to both sides

0 = 0

All real numbers are solutions.

Best of Luck!
