Given at you have an equilateral triangle, all sides have the same length.
Therefore,
First side 2x-7 = Second side x+y-9 = Third side y+5
Let us look at the second and third sides for now:
x+y-9 = y+5
x = y+5 - (y-9)
x = y-y+5+9
x = 14
Then we look at equating the first and third sides:
2x-7 = y+5
y = 2x-7-5
Substitute x =14 in the equation above:
y = 2(14)-7-5
= 28-7-5
= 21-5
= 16
The length of the third side is:
y+5 = 16 +5 = 21
Given that the length of each sides are the same in an equilateral triangle, all sides have the length 21cm.
Answer:
X-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the unknown number with a variable then introduce the minus sign
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
16x-80+18=4x+22
16x-62=4x+22
12x-62=22
12x=84
x=7
Answer:
A = 58
B = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
A + B = 180 Supplementary angles
B = 2A - 24 Given
Substitute for B in the first equation
A + 2A - 24 = 180
3A - 24 = 180 Add 24 to both sides
3A = 180 + 24 Combine the right
3A = 204 Divide both sides by 3
A = 204/3
A = 68
B = 2A - 24
B = 2*68 - 24
B = 136 - 24
B = 112
(x-3)(x-7)=0
x=3,7
hope this helps!
