Answer:

The equation can be expressed as;

x+y=71 where,

Lengths of two equal sides=x=22 m

Lengths of longer side=y=27 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The total perimeter can be expressed as;

Total perimeter=Total length of the equal sides+total length of the longer side

where;

Total perimeter=71 m

Total length of each of the equal sides=x m

Total length of longer side=y=(x+5) m

replacing;

x+y=71...equation 1

71=(2×x)+(x+5)

2 x+x=71-5

3 x=66

x=66/3

x=22 m

y=x+5=22+5=27 m

Lengths of two equal sides=22 m

Lengths of longer side=27 m

Equation;

x+y=71

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: $5

Step-by-step explanation: This can be represented by the equation

40 + 12T = 25 + 15T

We just solve for T.

Subtract 12T from both sides

40 = 25 + 3T Subtract 25

15 = 3T Divide by 3

5 = T

bull's-eye worth 74.333333 pts

Step-by-step explanation:

let the worth point of landing an arrow on the outer ring be "x" and on bull's eye be "y"

For amelia

3x + 3y = 267

For joey

4x + 3y = 281
