Answer:
6.68, 13.37, 14.95
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the legs is twice as long as the other.
b = 2a
The perimeter is 35.
35 = a + b + c
The triangle is a right triangle.
c² = a² + b²
Three equations, three variables. Start by plugging the first equation into the second and solving for c.
35 = a + 2a + c
c = 35 − 3a
Now plug this and the first equation into the Pythagorean theorem:
(35 − 3a)² = a² + (2a)²
1225 − 210a + 9a² = a² + 4a²
1225 − 210a + 4a² = 0
Solve with quadratic formula:
a = [ -(-210) ± √((-210)² − 4(4)(1225)) ] / 2(4)
a = (210 ± √24500) / 8
a ≈ 6.68 or 45.82
Since the perimeter is 35, a = 6.68. Therefore, the other sides are:
b ≈ 13.37
c ≈ 14.95
Answer:
Your answer would be:
57.75 or 57 3/4
(I will show how many of each length of twine that is on the graph)
Point 2 1/4:
2
Point 2 3/4:
4
Point 3:
1
Point 3 1/2:
2
Point 3 3/4:
3
Point 4:
1
Point 4 1/4:
4
We can show how much length in total Stevie used with the following equation:
(2 1/4 x 2) + (2 3/4 x 4) + ( 3 x 1 ) + ( 3 1/2 x 2 ) + (3 3/4 x 3 ) + (4 x 1 ) + (4 1/4 x 4)
Each smaller equation in paraphrases shows how much of each length of twine at each point with x's on the number line. Altogether it would equal 57.75 or 57 3/4.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
75x + -300 = 25x + 200
Reorder the terms:
-300 + 75x = 25x + 200
Reorder the terms:
-300 + 75x = 200 + 25x
Solving
-300 + 75x = 200 + 25x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-25x' to each side of the equation.
-300 + 75x + -25x = 200 + 25x + -25x
Combine like terms: 75x + -25x = 50x
-300 + 50x = 200 + 25x + -25x
Combine like terms: 25x + -25x = 0
-300 + 50x = 200 + 0
-300 + 50x = 200
Add '300' to each side of the equation.
-300 + 300 + 50x = 200 + 300
Combine like terms: -300 + 300 = 0
0 + 50x = 200 + 300
50x = 200 + 300
Combine like terms: 200 + 300 = 500
50x = 500
Divide each side by '50'.
x = 10
Simplifying
x = 10
