Answer:

The length of the sides of the triangle are as follow: Two sides are 14.4 inches long and the shortest is 7.2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 36in // perimeter of triangle

P = A + B + C //equation for perimeter of a triangle

A = B or B = A //Showing that two sides are equal in length

A = 2C and B = 2C //Showing that the two equal sides are each doubled of the shortest side

C = A/2 and C = B/2 //Showing the same thing as the top, but in terms of the shortest side

Solve for C //First we solve for the shortest side as it's easiest

36 = A + B + C

36 = 2C + 2C + C //Use substitution for A and B

36 = 5C

C = 7.2in

Solve for A

A = 2C

A = 2(7.2) //Use what we solved for C

A = 14.4in

Solve for B

B = A

B = 14.4in //Same as A

Check Work

P = A + B + C

P = 14.4 + 14.4 + 7.2

P = 36

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

given the graph of f(x) then the graph of f(x) ± c is a vertical translation of f(x)

• if - c then a shift down of c units

• if + c then a shift up of c units

then for f(x) + 4 is a shift up of 4 units

What is the solution to the system of equations? Use any method. {y=−3x+1 {2x+5y=18
Softa [21]

Answer:

So the solution set of the equations are {(-1,4)}

or

the solution is x = -1 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations given to us are

y = -3x + 1                                ..................(i)

2x + 5y = 18                             .................(ii)

To find the value of x and y or the solution set of the system of equations

Now in first equation we see that

y = -3x + 1

Putting this value in equation (ii)

which is

2x + 5y = 18

Putting value of y from (i) in it

2x + 5(-3x + 1) = 18

Opening the bracket and multiplying inside

2x -15x + 5 = 18

-13 x + 5 = 18

Subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation

-13x + 5 - 5 = 18 -5

-13x = 13

Dividing both sides by -13

\frac{-13x}{-13}=\frac{13}{-13}

Cutting out the same values gives us

x = -1

For value of y

putting value of x in equation (i)

which is

y = -3x + 1

Putting the value

y = -3(-1)+1

y=3+1

y=4

So the solution set of the equations are {(-1,4)}

or

the solution is x = -1 and y = 4
