Answer:

Side A = 25 in

Side B = 14 in

Side C = 17 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = 56 in

Side B = x

Side A = 2x - 3

Side C = 1/2x + 10

Perimeter of a triangle = side A + Side B + side C

56 = (2x -3) + x + (1/2x + 10)

56 = 2x - 3 + x + 1/2x + 10

56 + 3 - 10 = 2x + x + 1/2x

49 = 3 1/2x

Note: 3 1/2x = 3.5x

49 = 3.5x

x = 49/3.5

x = 14 in

Side B = x = 14 in

Side A = 2x - 3

= 2(14) - 3

= 28 - 3

= 25 in

Side C = 1/2x + 10

= 1/2(14) + 10

= 7 + 10

= 17 in

Please answer this multiple choice question CORRECTLY for 30 points and brainliest!!
JulijaS [17]

Solve the inequality for x:

5x - 3 ≤ 7x +7

Subtract 7x from each side:

-2x -3 ≤ 7

Add 3 to each side:

-2x ≤ 10

Divide both sides by -2, also when dividing  both sides of an inequality you flip the direction of the inequality sign:

x ≥ -5

The dot will be on -5, because the inequality includes equal to, the dot is solid and is greater than, the arrow will point to the right.

The correct answer is D.

Pie

Average speed = \frac{Total Distance}{Total Time}

Ishan's Speed uphill = 10mph

Time taken = 18 minutes = 18/60 = 3/10 hours

Now distance = rate × time

Distance traveled by Ishaan up hill = 10 × 3/10 = 3 miles

Now returning back home

Distance = 3 miles

Rate = 30 mph

So time taken = distance/ rate = 3/30= 1/10 hours = 1/10 ×60 = 6 minutes.

Now total distance traveled = 3 + 3 = 6 miles

Total time taken = 18 + 6 = 24 minutes = 24/60 = 2/5 hours

Average speed

= \frac{6}{0.4}

= 15 mph

Ishaan's average speed for the entire trip from home to the gift store and back is 15mph

What is the 399,713 rounded to the place value of the third underlined digit of 399
maksim [4K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

400,000.

Explanation:

The third digit in 399 is 9. To round to this place value, we inspect the digit behind it. If the digit is 5 or greater, we round up; if it is less than 5, we round down.

The digit behind 9 is 7. Since it is greater than 5, we round up. This would ordinarily put the number up 1; however, doing that makes the 9 a 10, which in turn makes the next number 10, and the next number 4. This gives us 400,000.
