Answer: 9 feet, 22 feet and 23 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest side be x.

The middle length side is 4feet greater than twice the length of the smallest​ side. This will be:

= (2 × x) + 4 = 2x + 4

The longest side is 4feet less than 3 times the length of the smallest side. This will be:

= (3 × x) - 4 = 3x - 4

Perimeter = x + 2x + 4 + 3x - 4

x + 2x + 4 + 3x - 4 = 54

Collect like terms

6x = 54

x = 54/6

x = 9

The three sides are

Smallest side = 9 feet

Middle side = 2x + 4 = 2(9) + 4 = 18+4 = 22 feet

Longest side = 3x - 4 = 3(9) - 4 = 27 - 4 = 23feet

mel-nik [20]
Games: $471; System: $157

s = cost of the system, and g = cost of the games
It is given that s+g = 628
and g=3*s

s+3*s = 628
4s = 628
s = 157

s+g = 628
157+g= 628
g= 628-157
g= 471

Answer:

m<1 = 45°  

m<2 = 76°

m<3 = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

1). Vertically opposite angles are equal

2). Sum of angles of a triangles is 180°

<u>To find the measures of given angles</u>

From the figure we get,

m<1 = 45°   [Vertically opposite angles]

By using angle sum property <2 + 59 + 45 = 180

m<2 = 180 - 104

m<2 = 76°

Also m<1 + m<3 + 55 = 180

m<3 = 180 - (m<1 + 55)

 = 180 - (45 + 55)

 = 180 - 100

m<3 = 80°

I thought of a two-digit number. The unit digit of my number is a prime number, and the tens digit is four times as big as the u
sergiy2304 [10]
<h3>Answer:  82</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

Let A be the tens digit and B be the units digit

We can write the number as AB. So if A = 9 and B = 2 for instance, then the number is AB = 92. Keep in mind I'm not multiplying A and B here.

"The unit digit is a prime" means B could be any of these values {2,3,5,7}. We only list the single digit primes. The value 1 is not prime.

Now multiply each of those items by 4

4*2 = 8

4*3 = 12

4*5 = 20

4*7 = 28

Of those results, only 4*2 = 8 leads to a single digit answer.

This must mean that A = 8 and B = 2

Therefore the number is AB = 82.

For #6;

We know that there are 46% male students and 30% of them are seniors. This means that we have to assume that 30% of the male students are seniors and that 30% of the female students are seniors. Taking 30% of 46% gives us 13.8%.

For #7;

We are looking for the possibility that we choose a junior student (22%) or a sophomore student (28%). This adds up to 50% (22%+28% = 50%). That is out answer.
