Let the length of the shorter sides be x, then
Perimeter = x + x + x + 5
29 = 3x + 5
3x = 29 - 5 = 24
x = 24/3 = 8
Therefore, the length of longest side is 8 + 5 = 13 m.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x/13=10
We have to get rid of the 13. (the denominator)
How?
By multiplying 2 sides by 13
Remember the Rules of Maths:
1. Whatever you do to one side, you must do to the other.
2. Use the opposite operation.
So, we used Rule 2 to get rid of the 13.
Now:
x=10*13
(On the left side, the 13s cancel)
x=130
It is always a great idea to double-check
Does 130 divided by 13 equal 10?
Of course it does!
Have a great day!!
I hope everything is clear!
This is going to be an long answer, so I'm putting the answer first. y=3x-7
First, you have to find the equation of the line given. You can use point slope form for that. You can see that the slope is -1/3, and it goes through (2,2). So, the equation would be
y-2=-1/3(x-2)
Which simplifies to
y=-1/3x+8/3
Now, we can get on to finding the actual answer. The slope of a line perpendicular would be the negative reciprocal of the original slope. That just means you flip it and multiply it by -1. So, the slope of the new line is 3. Now you can use point slope form again and make an equation, which is
y+1=3(x-2)
Which simplifies to
y=3x-7
Please don't ask me why the slope is the negative reciprocal, or how they came up with the formula for the point slope form. I DON'T KNOW. If you want to know so bad you would give up chick-fil-A for the rest of your life, there's always google.
It would be 5.3% of a number given. But since there isn't, you would have to use X.
