Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

It suffices to equate any two sides and then check whether the solution is valid for the third side.

Taking 2x and 3x-4 and equating:

2x = 3x-4

x = 4

This means the sides are both of length 8. Now check whether for x=4 the third side is also of length 8:

x+4=4+4=8

which indeed works out confirming x=4 being a valid solution

At a shelter, 15% of the dogs are puppies. there are 60 dogs at the shelter. How many are puppies?
frutty [35]
So for this you need to find 15% of 60. There are a few ways to do this but I prefer to do it like this.

First, find 10% of 60. This can be found by dividing 60 by 10, because 100%/10% is 10.

This gives 10%=6

5% is half of 10%, so divide your answer for 10% (6), by 2.

This gives 5%=3

We needed 15%, so we add our 10% and 5% together, to get 9.

15% of 60 is 9, meaning there are 9 puppies.

Hope this helps!
