Perimeter = Side + Side + Side
Side 1 = x
Side 2 = x + 7
Side 3 = 2x-7
Plug into the equation:
84 = x + (x + 7) + (2x-7)
84 = x + x + 7 + 2x - 7
Combine like terms:
84 = 4x
Divide by 4 and solve for x:
21 = x
Side 1 = 21
Side 2 = 28
21+7=28
Side 3 = 35
21(2) - 7 = 42 - 7 = 35
Answer:
282°
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of long arc KLM can be found by first determining the measure of short arc KM. That arc can be found using the inscribed angle theorem.
__
<h3>value of x</h3>
The inscribed angle theorem tells you the measure of arc KM is twice the measure of the inscribed angle KLM that subtends it. This relation can be used to find the value of x, hence the measure of the arc.
2∠KLM = arc KM
2(5x -1) = 8x +14
10x -2 = 8x +14 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
2x = 16 . . . . . . . . . . add 2-8x
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
<h3>measure of arc KM</h3>
The expression for the measure of arc KM can be evaluated.
arc KM = 8x +14 = 8(8) +14 = 78°
<h3>
measure of arc KLM</h3>
The total of arcs of a circle is 360°, so the measure of long arc KLM will bring the total with arc KM to 360°:
arc KM +arc KLM = 360°
arc KLM = 360° -arc KM
arc KLM = 360° -78° = 282°
The measure are long arc KLM is 282°.

dogs: x
cats: 2x+10
2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21
dogs: x
dogs: 21
cats: 2x+10
cats: 52
Check answer:
cats+dogs=73
52+21=73
There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)
Taking point (0,-2) of graph one and replacing in the equation;
2x+3y=6
2(0)+3(-2)=6
-6=6
So graph isn't the required graph.
Taking point (0,2) of graph 2;
2x+3y=6
2(0)+3(2)=6
6=6
So, graph 2 is the required graph.
You have to take a better picture
