Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the shortest side be x, then the longest side = 2x.

Also  x + y = 2x  + 1   where y = length of the middle side,

Simplifying:

2x - x - y = -1

x - y = -1        (A)

Also as the perimeter = 7:

x + 2x + y = 7

3x + y = 7       (B)

Adding (A) and (B):

4x + 0 = 6

x = 6/4 = 1.5

Plug x = 1.5 into equation B:

3(1.5) + y = 7

y = 7 - 4.5 = 2.5.

Answer:

So the shortest side = 1.5, middle = 2.5 and longest = 2*1.5 = 3.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

6x - 24y

Explanation:

Expand -3(10x + 4y): -30x - 12y

= \bold{-30x-12y+6\left(6x-2y\right)}

Simplify \bold{-30x-12y+6\left(6x-2y\right): \ 6x-24y}

= 6x - 24y

Find the 12th term of the sequence -15,-9,-3, 3
Reika [66]
First term (a) = -15
common difference(d)= -9-(-15)
= -9+15=6
So,
12th term(a12)= a +(n-1)d
= -15+(12-1)×6
= -15 + 11×6
= -15+66
= 51
