The expression 17n+11 represents the perimeter of a triangle. The other two sides measure 4n+5 and 5n+6. A simplified expression
frutty [35]

Answer: 8n

==========================================================

Explanation:

The two sides 4n+5 and 5n+6 have the terms 4n and 5n which add to 9n. We need 8n to add onto this so that we end up with 17n. In other words, 4n+5n+8n = 9n+8n = 17n

So that is why the answer is 8n. We don't have anything added or subtracted to it because the "+5" and "+6" in the two given expressions (4n+5 and 5n+6) add up to 5+6 = 11 which is what we want in the perimeter expression 17n+11

Side 1 = 4n+5

Side 2 = 5n+6

Side 3 = 8n

Perimeter = (side1) + (side2) + (side3)

Perimeter = (4n+5) + (5n+6) + (8n)

Perimeter = 4n+5 + 5n+6 + 8n

Perimeter = (4n+5n+8n) + (5+6)

Perimeter = 17n+11

So that confirms we have the proper expression for the third missing side.

Lisa sold $75 worth of play tickets.Adult tickets cost $4 each and children’s ticket cost $4 each.How many children’s tickets co
Helga [31]
Yes, there are many possible answers. An equation that can model your situation is:
4a+4b=75, with a being the amount of adult tickets sold, and b being the amount of children’s tickets sold.
Because both tickets cost 4 dollars, you would multiply the amount of tickets sold, by the price (in dollars) of the ticket.
So, you can find possible answers by substituting the amount of adult tickets sold. Say, 4 adults bought tickets. You could then substitute a for 4. So the equation would look like this.
4(4)+4b=75
16 + 4b = 75
4b = 75 - 16
4b = 59
Divide each side by four
B = 14.75

The reason you got a decimal number is because 75 cannot be divided by 4 evenly. So, in this context, you could say that 15 children bought tickets. One child had an issue, and Lisa gave them a 25% discount. This would explain why there are only 75 dollars worth in tickets. I hope I helped, this is my first question I have ever answered so I’m not entirely sure if this was helpful or not. Hope you figure this out!
