A scalene triangle is a triangle that has 3 sides that are all different lengths.

Let these letters represent the problem:

a = 8.7

b = side 2

c = side 3

P = 54.6

To find the perimeter, we just need to add all the sides [ P = a + b + c ]

So, put what we have in the formula above.

54.6 = 8.7 + b + c

Best of Luck!

Which quadratic function has a wider graph than y=2x^2?

Trava [24]

Answer:

y = 1/2 x²

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of the first term in a quadratic, in our case here, x², will tell us how the graph stretches. This is akin to the slope within the linear graph. Similar to the slope, the smaller the coefficient value, or value of slope m, the shallower the angle.

When discussing quadratics, the larger the coefficient of our x² term, the steeper, and skinnier the graph. If we want to look for a graph that is wider than y = 2x², then we need to find a graph with a coefficient that is less than 2.

Our only option then is

y = 1/2 x²

Triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DFE. Find y.

kirza4 [7]

Angles D and A are equal (from the statement bc the name of triangle starts with A and D)

Now set an equation of the angles so
45 = 5y -10

Add 10 on both sides

55 = 5y
divide by 5

y = 11

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The value of the annuity is $326,852.3766.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the required formula to find the present value of annuity:

We can find the present value of annuity:

$PV = P + P (\frac{1-(1+r)^{-(n-1)} }{r})$
