Answer:

The shortest side = 6

The third side = 9

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's establish the following based on the information given:

The shortest side = x

The third side = (x + 3)

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = (2x + 4)

The perimeter = 31

Since the perimeter is the total of all 3 sides, we are left with this equation:

(x) + (x + 3) + (2x + 4) = 31

From here, combine like-terms and solve for x.

(x) + (x + 3) + (2x + 4) = 31

(4x + 7) = 31

4x = 24

x = 6

Now that we know the value of x, we can apply this to the predetermined formulas to find the measurements of the remaining two sides.

The shortest side = 6

The third side = (x + 3) = 9

The hypotenuse (the longest side) = (2x + 4) = (2(6) + 4) = (12 + 4) = 16

To check, add all of the sides together to make sure they equal 31.

6 + 9 + 16 = 31

~Hope this Helps!~

Your parents have a realized income of $1,046.78/every 2 weeks. How much should the monthly housing expense budget be to stay wi
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer with explanation:

Income earned by my parents in every two weeks = $ 1046.78

In two weeks there are 14 days, so income earned by my parents in 1 day

              =\frac{1046.78}{14}\\\\74.77

Income of my parents after a month, if there are 30 days in a month = $74.77 × 30= $ 2243.10

We, will use ,\frac{28}{36} rule here , which states that , 28% of monthly income of my parents, should be used for  monthly housing expenses ,and 36% of gross monthly income should be used for debt purposes.

28% of $2243.78

=\frac{28}{100}*2243.78\\\\=\frac{62825.84}{100}\\\\=628.2584

= $ 628.26 (Approx)

So,my parents, monthly housing expense should not exceed ≥ $ 628.26

Ellen deposits $6,773 into an account earning 1% annually, After seven years what will Ellen's balance have grown to, including
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>If Ellen deposited 6 773 dollars in her account and did not withdraw any amount for 7 years.
Then she will earn this amount.
=> 1% interest rate per year
=> first year = 6 773 x .01 = 67.73
=> 6773 + 67.73 = 6840.73
=> Second year = 6840.76 * .01 = 68.4073
=> 68.4073 + 6840.76 = 6909.1673
=> Third year = 6909.1673 * .01 = 69.09
=> 6909.1673 + 69.09 = 6978.26
=>4th year = 6978.26 * .01 = 69.78
=> 6978.26 + 69.78 = 7004
=> 5th year = 7004 *.01 = 70.04
=> 7004 + 70.04 = 7074.04
=> 6th year = 7074.04 * .01 = 70.74
=> 70.74 + 7074.04 = 7144.78
=> 7th year = 7144.78 *.01 = 74.45
=> 7144.78 + 74.45 = 7216.23</span>
