Answer:
The smallest side is 7inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the shorter side be y.
The medium side is 4 more than the short side i.e
Meduim side = 4 + y
The longest side is 5 times the length of the shortest side i.e
Logest side = 5y.
Perimeter of the triangle = 53 inches
But the perimeter of a triangle is the Sum of all sides i.e
P = small + medium + large
53 = y + (4+y) + 5y
53 = y + 4 + y + 5y
Collect like terms
53 — 4 = 7y
49 = 7y
Divide both side by 7
y = 49/7
y = 7inches
Therefore the smallest side is 7inches
1. The best answer is A since a solution is where 2 lines intersect. Whether or not they intersect the x or y axis is completely irrelevant (so is whether they intersect the origin).
2. y=-x+5
-x+5=1/2x+2
-x+3=1/2x
3=3/2x
2=x
y=-(2)+5
y=3
Answer: (2,3)
3. It seems like the lines are completely on top of each other (coinciding) so there are infinitely many solutions.
