Given: 7r+3r-8=8+2r
Simplify: 10r-8=8+2r
Addition: add 8 to each side: 10r=16+2r
Subtraction: Take 2r from each side: 8r=16
Division: Divide each side by 8 for answer: r=2
Answer: r=2
Answer:
2x+ 2.1 = 7.5
x=2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of an isosceles triangle with sides x and y is
2x+y = P
I put y as the single side since the question said y is the shortest side. It should say shorter sides if the two sides with the same length are smaller than the third.
We know y =2.1 and P = 7.5
Substituting these values in, we get
2x+ 2.1 = 7.5
Subtract 2.1 from each side
2x+2.1 -2.1 = 7.5 -2.1
2x= 5.4
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = 5.4/2
x = 2.7 m
