In an equilateral triangle, all 3 sides are equal length, and the perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 3 times the length of

one side.
If one side measures 12 + 4x, and the measure of another side is 5x + 14, what is the perimeter of the equilateral triangle?

Since all the sides are equal, let's set 12 + 4x equal to 5x + 14

12 + 4x = 5x + 14

Subtract 4x from both sides and subtract 14 from both sides.

-2 = x

Let's plug -2 in for x into one of the side measurements.

12 + 4(-2) = 12 + -8 = 4

The perimeter is equal to the measure of one side times 3

4*3 = 12

The perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 12.

Marshall left home biking at a constant rate of 20 mph. One hour later, it looked like it may rain, so his friend, Brett, set ou
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

First, we need to find how far ahead Marshall was.  Since he had been biking at 20 mph for one hour, he had gone 20 miles.

Next, we need to find how long it will take Brett to catch up to Marshall.  In order to do this, we need to find how much faster Brett is going than Marshall.  We do this by subtracting Marshall's speed from Brett's speed.

60 - 20 = 40.  So, Brett is catching up to Marshall at 40 mph.  Now, we figure out how long it will take for someone going 40 miles per hour to go 20 miles.  We find this by dividing 40 miles per hour by 20.  This is equal to 1/2 hour.  So, it will take Brett 0.5 hours to catch up to Marshall.  This is the same as A, so A is the correct answer.

We can check our answer by seeing how far Marshall and Brett will have gone.  Marshall will have been biking for 1.5 hours, so we multiply 20 * 1.5 = 30.  Marshall went 30 miles.

Brett drove for .5 hours at 60 mph, so he went 30 miles.  Since Brett and Marshall went the same distance, our answer is correct.
