ASSUMPTION:

Let the shortest length be x.

ANSWER:

Perimeter of Δ = Sum of all sides.

x + 2x - 5 + x + 6 = 29

4x + 1 = 29

4x = 29 - 1

4x = 28

x = 7.

Then, Other sides are

  • 1st sides = 2 × 7 - 5 = 9
  • 2nd sides = 7 + 6 = 13

Hence, The sides of triangle are 7, 9 & 13.

Answer:

  • 7, 9, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the triangle be a, b and c.

<u>We have:</u>

  • P = a + b + c = 29
  • a = 2b - 5
  • c = b + 6

<u>Substitute values and solve for b:</u>

  • 2b - 5 + b + b + 6 = 29
  • 4b + 1 = 29
  • 4b = 28
  • b = 7

<u>Find a and c:</u>

  • a = 2*7 - 5 = 14 - 5 = 9
  • c = 7 + 6 = 13

<u>The sides are:</u> 7, 9, 13

The population of rabbits on an island is growing exponentially. In the year 1990, the population of rabbits was 1200, and by 19
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

2023 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model consists of the following expression:

y = A \cdot r^{t}

Where:

A - Initial population.

r - Increase rate.

t - Time

y - Current population.

The initial population and increase rate are, respectively:

1200 = A \cdot r^{0}

A = 1200

1700 = 1200 \cdot r^{4}

r^{4} = \frac{1700}{1200}

r^{4} = \frac{17}{12}

r = \sqrt[4]{\frac{17}{12} }

r \approx 1.091

The exponential model that predicts the population of rabbits is:

y = 1200\cdot 1.091^{t}

Lastly, the expected population for the year 1996 is:

y = 1200\cdot 1.091^{6}

y\approx 2023.624\,rabbits

3.8+(-4.8+(-6.2))=(3.8+(-4.8))+(-6.2)
katrin [286]

-6.2 plus -4.8 is -11. add the 3.8 to get -7.2

-4.8 plus 3.8 is -1

-1 plus -6.2 is -7.2

-7.2=-7.2
