Given, the plot is in the shape of triangle.

First side = x meter

Second side = ( 5x-3 )meters

Third side = ( 7x-6 ) meters

Perimeter of triangle is equal to the sum of all the three sides.

Perimeter = x + (5x-3) + (7x-6)

Combine like terms by adding all the x terms together and all the constant terms together.

Perimeter = (x+5x+7x) + ( -3 -6 )

Perimeter = 13x - 9 feet ... Answer

Solve for y.<br> y y<br> —— = ——<br> P-9 P+9
Veronika [31]

Answer:

  y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting the right side gives ...

  \dfrac{y}{P-9}-\dfrac{y}{P+9}=0\\\\y\left(\dfrac{(P+9)-(P-9)}{P^2-81}\right)=0\\\\y\left(\dfrac{18}{P^2-81}\right)=0\\\\\boxed{y=0}

The factor multiplying y cannot be zero, so y must be zero.

A pair of pants with a marked price of $35.00 has a discount of 20%. How much is the discount? Can someone help me learn to do p
andreyandreev [35.5K]
When you see a "%" you need to ask " a percent of what"?

Here, it's a percent of the original prize, so the discount is 20% of the original prize, that is 20% of 35.

20% is also 20/100 or 1/5, so we can calculate this like this:

\frac{1}{5} *35=7

so the discount is 7 dollars.
