Given at you have an equilateral triangle, all sides have the same length.
Therefore,
First side 2x-7 = Second side x+y-9 = Third side y+5
Let us look at the second and third sides for now:
x+y-9 = y+5
x = y+5 - (y-9)
x = y-y+5+9
x = 14
Then we look at equating the first and third sides:
2x-7 = y+5
y = 2x-7-5
Substitute x =14 in the equation above:
y = 2(14)-7-5
= 28-7-5
= 21-5
= 16
The length of the third side is:
y+5 = 16 +5 = 21
Given that the length of each sides are the same in an equilateral triangle, all sides have the length 21cm.
Answer:
OS is congruent to SQ
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8x - 6 = x + 9 : Given
7x - 6 = 9 :Subtraction property of equality
7x = 15 : Addition property of equality
x = 15/7 : Division property of equality
x = 2.143
Step-by-step explanation:
Match the properties with the steps to solving the following equation.
(8x - 6) = x + 9
8x - 6 = x + 9 : Given
8x - x - 6 = x + 9 - x
7x - 6 = 9 :Subtraction property of equality
7x - 6 + 6 = 9 + 6
7x = 15 : Addition property of equality
7x/ 7 = 15/7
x = 15/7 : Division property of equality
x = 2.143
Is that 258.177 or 258,177. because if its a decimal then you would look at the third space behind the decimal since that is hundredth thousandths and since its 7 it would round the other 7 to be an 8 so they answer would be 258.18
