Here is the set up:

Side 1 is 4x.

Side 2 is 5x + 3

Side 3 is 5x + 1

The perimeter is 102.

Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3

102 = 4x + 5x + 3 + 5x + 1

102 = 14x + 4

Take it from here.

Answer:

$x = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x : 8 = 2 : x \\ \frac{x}{8} = \frac{2}{x} \\ \\ cross \: \: multiple \\ {x}^{2} = 16 \\ x = \sqrt{16} \\ x = 4$

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the equations are:

$y = 14t^2$

$y = 130t + 1200$

They will be side by side when:

$14t^2 = 130t + 1200$

$14t^2 - 130t - 1200 = 0$

It's solution is a quadratic function with coefficients a = 14, b = -130, c = -1200, hence:

$\Delta = (-130)^2 - 4(14)(-1200) = 84100$

$x_1 = \frac{130 + \sqrt{84100}}{28} = 15$

$x_2 = \frac{130 - \sqrt{84100}}{28} = -5.71$

Time is a non-negative measure, hence option B is correct.

First divide both sides by 12 so u get 5x -4.5 = 3. Now add 4.5 to both sides and u get 5x = 7.5. Now divide 7.5 by 5 and u get 1.5

Two sides of a triangle have the same length. The third side measures 3 m less than twice the common length. The perimeter of th

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

4m, 4m, and 5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information give;

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length
The third side is 3 m less than the common length
Perimeter of the rectangle is 13 m

We are required to determine the dimensions of the triangle;

Assuming the common sides are x m each
Then, the third side will be (2x-3) m
Perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of the three sides

Therefore;

(2x-3) + x + x = 13 m

4x - 3 = 13m

4x = 16 m

x = 4 m

and, 2x-3 = 5 m

Therefore, the lengths of the three sides of the triangle are 4m, 4m, and 5 m
