Let the length of the shortest side be x, then the length of the second side is x + 4 and the length of the third side is 2x - 4.

Then, x + x + 4 + 2x - 4 = 52

4x = 52

x = 52/4 = 13

Therefore, the lengths of the sides of the triangle are: x = 13, x + 4 = 13 + 4 = 17 and 2x - 4 = 2(13) - 4 = 26 - 4 = 22.

i.e. 13, 17, 22

Radda [10]

Answer:

S = v1 t1 = 7 t1    traveling downstream

S = v2 t2 = 5 t2    traveling upstream

7 t1 = 5 t2

7 (6 - t2) = 5 t2     since t1 + t2 = 6

42 - 7 t2 = 5 t2

t2 = 42 / 12 = 3.5 hrs so t1 = 2.5 hrs

S = 7 t1 = 7 * 2.5 = 17.5 mi

Also, S = 5 t2 = 5 * 3.5 = 17.5 mi

Fill in the blanks to solve 48 x 8.<br> 48 x 8<br> = 40 eights + 8<br> eights
kozerog [31]

Question is:

Fill in the blanks to solve \frac{48}{x} =8.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{48}{x} =8

Required

Solve

Multiply both sides by x

x * \frac{48}{x} =8*x

48 =8*x

Make x the subject

x = \frac{48}{8}

x = 6

A painter earns $15 per hour. What is the minimum number of hours he must work to earn at least $200? Write an inequality to rep
IRISSAK [1]

So you know that he earns $15 per hour so we can write that as 15h, h = # of hours worked

We also know he has to earn AT LEAST $200, so putting all this together we form the inequality(=< means less than or equal to): 15h =< 200

so now we have to solve for h (number of hours worked):

15h =< 200

(divide both sides by 15)

h =< 13 1/3

So, the painter must work a minimum of 13 and 1/3 hours to earn at least $200.
