Answer:

The sides are

6

inches,

8

inches and

10

inches

Explanation:

I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'

In this case the question can be answered. If

x

is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4

x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24

10/4x=20

x=8

Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

What is m = 2/3; (6, 1) in slope intercept form? :)
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's look at what slope-intercept form is.

y = mx + b

m is the slope, which in this case is 2/3

b is the y-intercept, which we will find later.

Now that we have identified the parts of the equation, let's plug in what we know. Use the point given for your x and y values.

y = mx + b

1 = 2/3(6) + b

Let's simplify this to find b.

[multiply] 1 = 4 + b

[subtract 4]

-3 = b

We now have our b-value, which is also our y-intercept. Plug in this value into the standard slope-intercept equation.

y = 2/3x - 3

This is your equation.

Check this by plugging in the point again.

1 = 2/3(6) - 3

[multiply] 1 = 4 - 3

[subtract]

1 = 1

This expression is true; therefore, your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

its a 30% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

If 250 is 100% then you need an increase by 75 to get to 325

250*.3 = 75

75 is 30% of 250

250 + 30% (75) = 325
