<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

27 = x + 3x +5x

27 = 9x

3 = x

Board 1: (3)(1) = 3 inches

Board 2: (3)(3) = 9 inches

Board 3: (3)(5) = 15 inches

2x+3y+2z=13<br> 2y+z=1<br> z=3
Igoryamba
<h3>Given</h3>

z = 3

2y +z = 1

2x +3y +2z = 13

<h3>Find</h3>

x, y, z

<h3>Solution</h3>

... z = 3 is given

Substitute that into the second equation.

... 2y + 3 = 1

... 2y = -2 . . . . . subtract 3

... y = -1 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

Substitute these two solutions into the third equation.

... 2x +3(-1) +2(3) = 13

... 2x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . .  collect terms, subtract 3

... x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The variable values are: x = 5, y = -1, z = 3

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that for a right triangle, if the two legs are the same length "x", then the hypotenuse will always be "x√2"

Here each leg has a length of 2, so the hypotenuse is equal to 2√2
