A triangle has a perimeter of 165 cm. The first side is 65 cm less than twice the second side. The third side is 10 cm less than

the second side. Find the length of each side of the triangle.
What is the length of each side of the triangle?

55 cm, 60 cm, 50 cm

45 cm, 60 cm, 60 cm

65 cm, 55 cm, 45 cm

Answer: choice a

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up your variables. For this question lets use x, y, and z.

the equations will be . .

x + y + z = 165

x = 2y - 65

z = y -10

If we now substitude the equations for x and z with the first equation we cans solve for y. Hence the equation will be  . . .

2y - 65 + y + y -10 = 165

y = 60

then substitude the equations for x and z with y.

your answer should match choice a.

The roof of a tower in a castle is shaped like a cone. The height of the roof is 30 ft, and the radius of the base is 15 ft. Wha
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The area of the roof: ≈2287.44 ft^2, the lateral area of the roof:≈1580.58 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the roof is computed by the equation of the area of a cone:
A = πr(r + \sqrt{h^{2}+r^(2) })
(r: radius, h: height, πr^2 is the area of the base of the cone, πr\sqrt{h^{2}+r^(2) } is the lateral area of the cone). So:

A = 15\pi (15 + \sqrt{30^{2} +15^{2}  } ) ≈ 2287.44 ft^2.

As I stated earlier, the lateral area of the roof can be computed:

AL=15\pi \sqrt{30^{2} +15^{2} } ≈ 1580.58 ft^2.

Solve the following equation by completing the square. 3x^2-3x-5=13
mr Goodwill [35]

we'll start off by grouping some

\bf 3x^2-3x-5=13\implies (3x^2-3x)-5=13\implies 3(x^2-x)-5=13 \\\\\\ 3(x^2-x)=18\implies (x^2-x)=\cfrac{18}{3}\implies (x^2-x)=6\implies (x^2-x+~?^2)=6

so we have a missing guy at the end in order to get the a perfect square trinomial from that group, hmmm, what is it anyway?

well, let's recall that a perfect square trinomial is

\bf \qquad \textit{perfect square trinomial} \\\\ (a\pm b)^2\implies a^2\pm \stackrel{\stackrel{\text{\small 2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small a}^2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small b}^2}}{\downarrow }}{2ab} + b^2

so we know that the middle term in the trinomial, is really 2 times the other two without the exponent, well, in our case, the middle term is just "x", well is really -x, but we'll add the minus later, we only use the positive coefficient and variable, so we'll use "x" to find the last term.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{2(x)(?)}=\stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{x}\implies ?=\cfrac{x}{2x}\implies ?=\cfrac{1}{2}

so, there's our fellow, however, let's recall that all we're doing is borrowing from our very good friend Mr Zero, 0, so if we add (1/2)², we also have to subtract (1/2)²

\bf \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)=6\implies \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2=6 \\\\\\ \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=6+\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=\cfrac{25}{4}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\cfrac{25}{4}} \\\\\\ x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{1}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies \boxed{x=3}
