Answer:

Original side of triangle = 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter = 45 units

Scale factor = 2.5 (Increase)

Original side of triangle = ?

Computation:

Original Perimeter = Perimeter / Scale factor

Original Perimeter = 45 units / 2.5

Original Perimeter = 18 units

Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3 (Side)

18 units = 3 (Side)

Side = 6 units

Original side of triangle = 6 units

Lamar works as a tutor for $7 an hour and as a waiter for $8 an hour . this month he worked a combined total of 92 hours at his
ira [324]

t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor 
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.

So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars

This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644 
736-92= 644 
So our expression seems to be working.
