The equation can be modeled as

X + X + (X+4) = 61

X is used for all because they are all the same number and can be given the same variable

The third is given plus four so we can use a common variable

3x + 4 = 61

3x = 57 (subtracted four)

x = 19 (divided by three)

Solving for third side so x + 4

The third side is 23 inches

Answer:

↓↓↓↓↓

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides. x is in this case the length of the rectangle while y is the width of the rectangle. The area is measurement of the surface of a shape.

Help me with this!!
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so we see the two line of the same length of 14, which tells us that the lengths of 5x  and 7x-8  have to be the same length.  so we know we can set them equal to each other.  Often times that's the key to math problems , finding where you can set things equal.

5x = 7x-8  ( subtract 5x from both sides and then add 8 to both sides )

8 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

4 = x

nice this looks right too  , both sides add to 20  :)

Indicate the general rule for the arithmetic sequence with a3 = -12 and a8 = -37
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The general rule is a_n = -2 - 5(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and this difference is called common difference.

The general rule of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

a_{n} = a_1 + (n-1)d

In which a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

We can also find the nth term as a function of a term m, using:

a_n = a_m + (n-m)d

a3 = -12 and a8 = -37

First we find the common difference. So

a_n = a_m + (n-m)d

a_8 = a_3 + (8-3)d

-37 = -12 + 5d

5d = -25

d = -\frac{25}{5}

d = -5

So

a_n = a_1 - 5(n-1)

Finding the first term:

a_n = a_1 - 5(n-1)

Since a_3 = -12

a_n = a_1 - 5(n-1)

a_3 = a_1 - 5(3-1)

a_1 = a_3 + 10 = -12 + 10 = -2

So the general rule is:

a_n = a_1 - 5(n-1)

a_n = -2 - 5(n-1)
