Answer:
Two negative make a positive so this equation is basically 39 = n + 12 so you need to subtract 12 from each side. This makes it n = 27
Hope this helps!
Answer:
12 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the heights of the plants be y
and the number of weeks be x
Plant A
y=3x+8.5--------------1
Plant B
y=2.5x+14.5----------2
Required
The number of weeks taken for both plants to have the same height
,equate the two expressions above
3x+8.5=2.5x+14.5
3x-2.5x=14.5-8.5
0.5x= 6
divide both sides by 0.5
x= 6/0.5
x= 12 weeks
The algebraic expression you would write is 12v
The results in the question conclude that it is an isosceles triangle so your answer can vary; for example, your could be 10, 22, 18 which would make the perimeter 50 like the question states. So your answer will vary anyways you just have to remember that it is an isosceles triangle so all three sides will be a different length.
