The second side of a triangular deck is 4 feet longer than the shortest side. The third side that is 4 feet shorter than twice t
he length of the shortest side. If the perimeter of the desk is 48 feet, are the length of the three sides?
1 answer:
The second side of a triangular deck is 4 feet longer than the shortest side
(s+4) = the 2nd side
and a third side that is 4 feet shorter than twice the length of the shortest side.
(2s-4) = the 3rd side
If the perimeter of the deck is 48 feet, what are the lengths of the three sides?
s + (s+4) + (2s-4) = 48
Combine like terms
s + s + 2s + 4 - 4 = 48
4s = 48
s = 48/4
s = 12 ft is the shortest side
I'll let you find the 2nd and 3rd sides, ensure they add up to 48

Answer:
48 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume (V) of a pyramid is calculated as
V =
× area of base × height
here area of base = 24 and height = 6, so
V =
× 24 × 6 = 8 × 6 = 48 in³

= 25 / 10 - 10/6
= 5/2 - 5/3
= 15/6 - 10/6
= 5/6
