second side = x

first side = 3x - 6

third side = (3x - 6) + 8

The perimeter = 80m and is equal x + (3x - 6) + [(3x - 6) + 8]

x + 3x - 6 + 3x - 6 + 8 = 80

7x - 4 = 80 |+4

7x = 84 |:7

x = 12 m

3x - 6 = 3(12) - 6 = 30 m

(3x - 6) + 8 = 3x + 2 = 3(12) + 2 = 38 m

Answer: 12m, 30m, 38m

What number is 70% of 120?please give the equation with x
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
You can set up this equation as:
x = 0.7(120)

Because remember, 70% is equal to 0.7 and x represents the unknown value. So, let's just solve it:
x = 0.7(120)=84

So, 70% of 120 is 84.

Put the following equation in slope-intercept form: 4y=4x+8​
Sloan [31]

Answer:

y = x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

4y=4x+8​

Slope intercept form is

y = mx+b so we need to solve for y

Divide each side by 4

4y/4 = 4x/4 +8/4

y = x +2

The slope is 1 and the y intercept is 2

If you are going somewhere that is 60 miles away and you're going 40 miles per hour the whole time how long will it take you to
Masja [62]
Velocity * time = distance

40 (miles / hour) * t (hours) = 60 (miles)

Take note how the units work. miles/hour * hours = miles. This is an indication that a formula we picked is correct.

Now, looking at our formula (and neglecting units at this point)

40t = 60
t = 60/40
<span>t = 1.5 hours</span>

In a bag,There are red and blue cubes in the ratio 4:7.I add 10 more red cubes to the bag.Now here are red and blue cubes in the
Hoochie [10]

Given:

The ratio of red and blue cubes is 4:7.

After adding 10 more red cubes the ratio of red and blue cubes is 6:7.

To find:

The number of blue cubes.

Solution:

The ratio of red and blue cubes is 4:7.

Let the number of red and blue cubes be 4x and 7x respectively.

After adding 10 more red cubes.

Number of red cubes = 4x+10

Then, the ratio of red and blue cubes is 6:7.

\dfrac{4x+10}{7x}=\dfrac{6}{7}

7(4x+10)=6(7x)

28x+70=42x

70=42x-28x

70=14x

Divide both sides by 14.

5=x

Now,

Number of blue cubes in the bag is

7(5)=35

Therefore, the number of blue cubes is 35.
