P = a + b + c where a < b < c

P = 42 in
b = 18 in
a = x
c = 4x - 1

The equation:

x + 18 + 4x - 1 = 42    |combine items

5x + 17 = 42      |subtract 17 from both sides

5x = 25    |divide both sides by 5

x = 5 (in)

c = 4 · 5 - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 (in)

Answer: The length of the longest side is 19 in.

Graph the line with slope -3 passing through the point (2,4)
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

f(x) = -3x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute values to find b;

y=mx+b

y=-3x+b

<em>Replace X and Y</em>

4=-3(2)+b

4=-6+b

<em>Swap sides to set equal to b. Swapping causes sign change</em>

4+6=b

10=b

What is 55 percent of 160?
Maurinko [17]

Answer: 88

Step-by-step explanation: To find 55% of 160, first write 55% as a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left to get .55.

Next, the word "of" means multiply, so we have (.55) x (160).

(.55) (160) = 88

Therefore, 55% of 160 is 88.

State the property that justifies the statement: If 4x + 9 = 15 and X=2y + 1,
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Substitution property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x + 9 = 15 and x = 2y + 1

Then

4(2y + 1) + 9 = 15

Required

State the property

From the list of options, (d) answers the question.

This is so because:

Substitution property of equality states that

If a = b then b = a

In other words, both can replace one another.

So if x = 2y + 1, then 2y + 1 can be substituted for x in 4x + 9 = 15

So:

4x + 9 = 15  becomes

4(2y + 1) + 9 = 15

<em>Hence, it is substitution property of equality</em>
