Answer:

Perimeter of abc is 60 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of one side of triangle abc to the corresponding side of similar triangle def is 5:8.

Now we are given that the perimeter of def is 96 inches.

since the perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a triangle.

<em>" If two similar triangles have a scale factor of a : b, then the ratio of their perimeters is a : b" .</em>

Here we have a=5 and b=8.

Hence by the above statement we could say that:

Let Perimeter of abc be denoted by "P"

Perimeter of abc : Perimeter of def=5:8

⇒  \dfrac{P}{96}=\dfrac{5}{8}\\\\P=\dfrac{5\times96}{8}\\\\P=60

Hence the Perimeter of abc is 60 inches.

Isaac shoveled 9 of his neighbors' driveways after a snow storm. He charged $25 for a short driveway and $45 for a long driveway
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

y($) =  405- 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of short driveways = x

Number of long driveways = 9-x

Fee per long driveway = $45

Fee per short driveway= $25

Total amount = y

y ($) =  25x + 45 (9-x)

      =  25x  + 405 -45x

      = 405- 20x

How do I solve this algebra equation X+7=2x-8
ale4655 [162]
You know that we have to simplify the algebra equation, so first you have to combine x and 2x. X + 2x equals to 3x. Now that we combined x and 2x which makes 3x, we have to do 7 and -8. 7 + -8 which equals to -1. Therefore, the answer to this algebra equation is 3x + -1.
