First, we have to get the fractions to common denominators.
4/5 = 16/20
1/4 = 5/20
5 5/20 - 3 16/20 = 1 9/20
She put 1 9/20 extra cups in.
Answer:
The measure of the shortest side is 851 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the measure of the shortest side
y ---> the measure of the middle side
z ---> the measure of the longest side
we know that
The perimeter of triangle is equal to


so
----> equation A
the shortest side measures 71 mi less than the middle side
so
----> equation B
the longest side measures 372 mi more the the middle side
so
----> equation C
substitute equation B and equation C in equation A

solve for y

Find the value of x

therefore
The measure of the shortest side is 851 miles
4 * 2 = 8
8 + 5 = 13
B, is the correct answer
49 and 100 are the answers as 100-49=51 and they are both square numbers as 100 square rooted is 10 and 49 square rooted is 7 is that a good enough answer please tell in comments
