Answer:

6, 21, and 23 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of all side lengths in that triangle. We're given the perimeter as 50 inches, and the side lengths as n, 3n + 3, and 2n + 11.

  • This means that we can algebraically solve the equation n + 3n + 3 + 2n + 11 = 50

Step 1: Combine like terms.

  • (n+3n+2n) + (3+11) = 50
  • 6n + 14 = 50

Step 2: Subtract 14 from both sides.

  • 6n + 14 - 14 = 50 - 14
  • 6n = 36

Step 3: Divide both sides by 6.

  • 6n/6 = 36/6
  • n = 6

Step 4: Plug in the value of n as 6 in each side.

  • (6) + (3(6) + 3) + (2(6)+11) = 50
  • (6) + (18+3) + (12+11) = 50
  • (6) + (21) + (23) = 50  

Therefore, the side lengths are 6, 21, and 23 inches.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡

Which of the following shows the extraneous solution(s) to the logarithmic equation? log4 (x) + log4(x - 3) = log4 (-7x + 21)
Salsk061 [2.6K]
First join the log4 on the left:

log4( x*(x-3) = log4(-7x+21)

Then x = -7, works: -7*(-10)=70 = -7*(-7)+21

x=-3, 18 = 42, does not work

x=3 0=0 works,

However, when one puts x = -7 in the *original* exression, log4(-7) or log4(-10) do not exist (you know why?). So x= -7 is extraneous.

Now x=3 gives log4(0) on the left and right, which does not exist.

So, C is the answer, both are extraneous. Seem to work but indeed don't work in the *original* equation

Multiply the polynomials show steps
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

3a^{4} + 11a³ - 7a² + 18a - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>When multiplying with two brackets, you need to multiply the three terms, (a²), (4a) and (-6) from the first bracket to all the terms in the second brackets, (3a²), (-a) and (3) individually. I have put each multiplied term in a bracket so it is easier.</u>

(a² + 4a - 6) × (3a² - a + 3) =

(a² × <em>3a²</em>) + {a² × <em>(-a)</em>} + (a² × <em>3</em>) + (4a × <em>3a²</em>) + {4a × <em>(-a)</em>} + (4a × <em>3</em>) + {(-6) × <em>a²</em>) + {(-6) × <em>(-a)</em>} + {(-6) × <em>3</em>}

<u>Now we can evaluate the terms in the brackets. </u>

(a² × 3a²) + {a² × (-a)} + (a² × 3) + (4a × 3a²) + {4a × (-a)} + (4a × 3) + {(-6) × a²) + {(-6) × (-a)} + {(-6) × 3} =

3a^{4} + (-a³) + 3a² + 12a³ + (-4a²) + 12a + (-6a²) + 6a + (-18)

<u>We can open the brackets now. One plus and one minus makes a minus. </u>

3a^{4} + (-a³) + 3a² + 12a³ + (-4a²) + 12a + (-6a²) + 6a + (-18) =

3a^{4} -a³ + 3a² + 12a³ -4a² + 12a -6a² + 6a -18

<u>Evaluate like terms.</u>

3a^{4} -a³ + 3a² + 12a³ -4a² + 12a -6a² + 6a -18 = 3a^{4} + 11a³ - 7a² + 18a - 18
