Answer:

x= 17cm

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

sides of a triangle:

x, x-5, 3x

perimeter= 80cm

perimeter of a triangle= side + side + side

80 = x + (x-5) + (3x)

80 = x + x + 3x -5 ------------->(rearranging the like terms together)

80 = 5x - 5

80+5 = 5x

85 = 5x

85/5 = x

17cm = x

Point m is the midpoint of ab¯¯¯¯¯ . am=3x+3, and ab=8x−6. what is the length of am¯¯¯¯¯¯ ?
LuckyWell [14K]
As given m is a midpoint of ab. So am is half of ab.

So we can write

am =  \frac{ab}{2}

As given am = 3x+3 , ab = 8x - 6.

So 3x+3 = \frac{8x - 6}{2}

3x+3 =  \frac{2(4x - 3)}{2}

3x+3 = 4x - 3

3+3 = 4x - 3x


6 = x

So x = 6.

So length of am = 3x+3 = 3*6 + 3 = 21
