Answer:

The three sides are 27 feet, 15 feet, 13 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let second side of a triangle be = a

Let one side be 12 feet shorter than the second side = (a - 12)

Let the third side be 2 feet shorter than the second side= (a - 12) - 2 =(a - 14)

Perimeter of triangle = Sum of length of all 3 sides

55 = a + (a - 12) + (a - 14)

55 = a + a + a - 12 - 14

55 = 3a - 26

55 + 26 = 3a

81 = 3a

a = 27

Length of one side, a - 12 = 27 - 12 = 15 feet

Length of second side, a = 27 feet

Length of third side, a - 14 = 27 - 14 = 13 feet

Veronika [31]
Question: An aquarium is on sale for $59.50. If this price represents a 15% discount from the original price, what is the original price? 

First, you multiply the sale price and the 15% discount

$59.50*.15 = [tex]$8.92 [/tex] (To change the percent to a decimal, you take out the percentage sign and divide by 100)

Now add $59.50 to $8.92

59.50+8.92=$68.43

Answer:

$68.43 (when rounded to the nearest cent)
or
$68 (when rounded to the nearest dollar)
or
$70 (when rounded to the nearest ten dollar)

Please help me with this question!!
quester [9]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 6

a2 = 10

a3 = 14

The next member of the sequence is 4 more than the current sequence. Therefore d = 4

a1 = 6

d = 4

n = 13

an = a1 + (n - 1)*d

an = 6 + (n - 1)*4

a_13 = 6 + 12*4

a_13 = 6 + 48

a_13 = 54
