Answer:
The perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of a 2D shape. To calculate the perimeter, sum the lengths of all the sides.
Therefore, perimeter of the triangle = (2x - 8) + (2x + 5) + (30 - 3x)
Collect like terms: 2x + 2x - 3x - 8 + 5 + 30
Combine like terms: x + 27
Therefore, perimeter of triangle = x + 27
We are told that the perimeter is 25:
x + 27 = 25
Subtract 27 from both sides: x = -2
If x = -2, then the side with equation 2x - 8 = (2 x -2) - 8 = -12
A length cannot be negative, therefore the perimeter cannot equal 25.
Your answer should be:
2(6h-3) = 30
Answer: the number of minutes of long distance call that one can make is lesser than or equal to 12 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of minutes of long distance call that one makes.
The first three minutes of a call cost $2.10. After that, each additional minute or portion of a minute of that call cost $0.45. This means that if x minutes of long distance call is made, the total cost would be
2.10 + 0.45(x - 3)
Therefore, the inequality to find the number of minutes one can call long distance for $6.15 is expressed as
2.10 + 0.45(x - 3) ≤ 6.15
2.10 + 0.45x - 1.35 ≤ 6.15
0.75 + 0.45x ≤ 6.15
0.45x ≤ 6.15 - 0.75
0.45x ≤ 5.4
x ≤ 5.4/0.45
x ≤ 12
