Answer:

6, 9, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be the shortest side. Using the information you're given, you can create an equation. 27= s + s+3 + 2s. Now just solve the equation. Subtract 3 from both sides. 24=4s. Divide by 4 on both sides. 6=s. So the shortest side is 6 feet long, so we add 3 to that for the one that is neither the shortest or the longest. That side is 9 feet long. We double s to get 12, which is the longest side.

Explain how you could convert 152 cups to gallons
sasho [114]
If there are two cups in a pint, two pints in a quart, and four quarts in a gallon that means that there are 16 cups in a gallon. then, in order to convert, all you do is divide 152/16. when you divide this out, you get 9.5 gallons

Jim is a furniture salesman. his weekly pay is $300 plus3.5% of his total sales for the week.jim sell x dollar's worth of furnit
Lesechka [4]
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: total sales for the week
 We now write the equation that models the problem.
 We have then:
 p (x) = 0.035x + 300
 Answer:
 a function, p (x), which can be used to determine his pay for the week is:
 p (x) = 0.035x + 300

How do I find what x equals
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

basically, you get x to one side and the number to another side, then simplify. For example, 3x-2=x+6. The steps are:

2x-2=6, here we brought the x to the other side by subtracting an x from each side. Since the x was positive (adding) we subtract x from each side.

2x=8, we did the same thing but added 2 to each side since -2+2=0, and now it is on the other side.

x=4, 2x means x times 2, so you would divide each side by 2.

In short, put x on one side and number on the other by doing the opposite of what something says, remove multiplication or division by doing the opposite. You must always do it on both sides, or it is not an equation.
