The perimeter of a triangle is 133 inches. If one side of the triangle is five more than the shortest side, and the longest side

is 14 more than the shortest side, find the lengths of the three sides?

133=x + (x+5) + (x+14)

133 = 3x+19

3x=114

x= 114/3 =38

5+38 =43

38+14 =52

check: 38 +43 +52 = 133

3 sides are : 38, 43 & 52

Calculate a vector c in the same direction of the vector a and that has the same length as the vector b

Viktor [21]

For any scalar $t>0$ , $t\vec a$ is a vector pointing in the same direction as $a$ .

To force this vector to have the same length as another vector $\vec b$ , first normalize $t\vec a$ by dividing it by its norm,

$\dfrac{t\vec a}{\|t\vec a\|}=\dfrac{t\vec a}{t\|\vec a\|}=\dfrac{\vec a}{\|\vec a\|}$

then multiply this vector by the norm of $\vec b$ , so that

$\vec c=\dfrac{\|\vec b\|}{\|\vec a\|}\vec a$

To confirm that $\vec c$ has the same length as $\vec b$ :

$\|\vec c\|=\left\|\dfrac{\|\vec b\|}{\|\vec a\|}\vec a\right\|=\dfrac{\|\vec b\|}{\|\vec a\|}\|\vec a\|=\|\vec b\|$

Crystal earns $5.50 per hours mowing lawns. Write a rule to describe how the amout of money m earned is a function of the number

ra1l [238]

She earns $5.50 for every hour so:
$m = 5.5h$
3 hours and 45 minutes is 3.75 hours.
$m = 5.5(3.75)$
$m = 20.625$
After rounding, she earns $20.63.

Find the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of the parallelogram with the vertices W(−2, 5), X(2, 5), Y(4, 0),

emmasim [6.3K]

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of the parallelogram is: (1, 2.5).

<h3>What are Diagonals of a Parallelogram?</h3>

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, therefore, the coordinates of their intersection can be determined using the midpoint formula, which is: $M(\frac{x_2 + x_1}{2}, \frac{y_2 + y_1}{2})$ .

A diagonal is XZ.

X(2, 5) = (x1, y1)

Z(0, 0) = (x2, y2)

Plug in the values

$M(\frac{0 + 2}{2}, \frac{0 + 5}{2})$

= (1, 2.5).

A. Roc= 14a/d (he can harvest 14 acres per day) so to get 120 acres of wheat he would have to harvest wheat for a little over 5 and a half days

a vet weighs two puppies the small puppy weighs 4 1/2 pounds the large puppy weighs 4 2/3 times as much as the small puppy how m

Llana [10]

The large puppy weighs 20.97 Pounds. This is because 2/3 of a hundred is 66. You would do 4.5 Times 4.66. This equals 20.97. It can be rounded to 21. Hope this helps!
