P = a + b + c
P = 72
a = x
b = x + 2
c = x + 4
72 = x + x + 2 + x + 4
72 = 3x + 6
72 - 6 = 3x
66 = 3x
66/3 = x
22 = x
x + 2 = 22 + 2 = 24
x + 4 = 22 + 4 = 26
the sides of ur triangle are : 22,24,26 <==
Both of those equations are solved for y. So if the first one is equal to y and the second one is equal to y, then the transitive property says that the first one is equal to the second one. We set them equal to each other and solve for x. 4x-5=-3 and 4x = 2. That means that x = 1/2. We were already told that y = -3, so the coordinates for the solution to that system are (1/2, -3), B from above.
Answer:
C. In step 2, Cindy should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go through the equation correctly, and then point out what would have happened.
3 = x/2 - 5
Add 5 to both sides. -5 and 5 cancel out.
8 = x/2
What Cindy should have done here is multiply by 2, not divide by 2. It is important to remember that you do the INVERSE operation to cancel out a number.
What would have happened here is that we have an extra step (though either way we still end up with x being 16.)
Correct Step 2:
Multiply both sides by 2. x/2 and 2x cancel out.
x = 16
Incorrect Step 2:
8/2 = (x/2)/2
4 = x/4
Multiply both sides by 4 (this would be the extra step!).
16 = x
