The second side of a triangular deck is 5 feet longer than the shortest​ side, and the third side is 5 feet shorter than twice the length of the shortest side. If the perimeter of the deck is 56 ​feet, what are the lengths of the three​ sides?

Answers

Answer 1

The lengths of the three sides are 14 feet, 19 feet and 23 feet respectively.

How to determine the length of the sides

The formula for determining the perimeter of a triangle is expressed as;

Perimeter = a + b + c

Where; a, b and c are the length of the sides

From the information given, we have that;

y = 5 + zx = 2z - 5Perimeter = 56

56 = 2z- 5 + 5 + z + z

collect like terms

56 = 4z

Make 'z' the subject of formula

z = 56/4

z = 14

Shortest side, z = 14 feet

Second side, y = 5 + z = 19 feet

Third side, x = 2z - 5 = 2(14) - 5 = 23 feet

Hence, the values are 14 feet, 19 feet and 23 feet respectively.

Answers

The resulting triangle is 7/10 the original triangle.

How triangle dilated with scale factor?

The focuses in the direction planes are A(0, 2), B(2, 1), C(- 2, - 2). In the event that the scale factor is 2, each direction point of the first triangle is duplicated by the scale factor 2. Subsequently, the expanded triangle will be A'B'C' and the direction focuses got are A'(0, 4), B'(4, 2), C'(- 4, - 4).

According to question:

Let we have a triangle ABC,If this triangle undergoes a dilation with a scale factor of 7/10,

Then changed triangle is  A'B'C'

So, relation between them is A'B'C' = 7/10(ABC)

Thus, the resulting triangle is 9/5 multiple of triangle ABC.

write each equation in point slope form.
y+5=-6(x+7)
and y+2 =1/6(x-4)

Answers

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is,

a.) y = -6x - 47

b.) y = x/6 - 8/3

What is Equation of line ?

A straight line's general equation is y = mx + b, where m denotes the gradient and y = b denotes the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. On the y-axis, this value b is referred to as the intercept.

We know, slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b

The given equation is in point slope form,

a.) y + 5 = -6 (x + 7)

b.)  y + 2 = 1/6 (x-4)

Now, let's write each equation in slope-intercept form,

a.) y + 5 = -6 (x + 7)

y + 5 = -6x - 42

y = -6x - 42 - 5

y = -6x - 47            [which is slope-intercept form]

b.) y + 2 = 1/6 (x-4)

y + 2 = 1/6 * x - 1/6 * 4

y + 2 = x/6 - 2/3

y = x/6 - 2/3 - 2

y = x/6 - [2/3 + 2]

y = x/6 - [(2 + 6) / 3 ]

y = x/6 - 8/3            [which is slope-intercept form]

Hence, the equation of line in slope-intercept form is y = -6x - 47 and y = x/6 - 8/3

Your first step of simplifying is to distribute the "–" or "–1" in front of the second set of parentheses through that second set of parentheses.  The –1 must be distributed to every term in the second set:

a certain test is worth 135 points. how many points (rounded to the nearest point) are needed to obtain a score of 85%?

Answers

To obtain a score of 85% on a test worth 135 points, one needs to get 115 points. By using proportions, we get the required value.

How to write proportions?

A proportion is defined as an equality between two ratios.

Consider two ratios a:b and c:d. Then, the proportion we can write,

a: b = c : d

Then, the simplification we have for this proportion is

a/b = c/d or ad = bc

Calculation:

It is given that, a certain test is worth 135 points.

One to get 85% on this test, he/she needs to get X number of points.

So, we can write the proportions as

X : 135 = 85 : 100

⇒ X/135 = 85/100

⇒ X = 85/100 × 135

∴ X = 114.75 ≅ 115 points

Answers

Therefore the solution of this question is ratio length =  every 1 inch of toy car represents 1.5 feet of actual car

What is ratio?

In mathematics, a ratio shows how two numbers are multiplied together. In a bowl of fruit, for instance, the proportion of oranges to lemons is eight to six if there are eight oranges and six lemons. Lemons to oranges are divided 6:8 and oranges to all other fruits are divided 8:14 in a similar fashion.

Here,

A toy Jeep measures 12 1/2 inches.

Before calculating the ratio, let's first convert each size into the same unit of measure and decimal points:

=>12 ½ = 25/2  

=> 12.5 inches;

=> 18 ¾ = 75/4

=> 18.75 feet .

The actual length of a jeep is 18.75 feet.

The ratio can now be determined by converting feet to inches.

1 inch of a toy car equals 1.5 feet of an actual car because

=> 1 foot = 12 inches

=>  12.5 inches : 225 inches

 => 225 / 12.5

=> 18 inches

Therefore, every 1 inch of toy car represents 1.5 feet of actual car.

Let x=x=x, equals the number of answers ira correctly guesses in the last 666 questions. What is the probability that he answers fewer than 222 questions correctly in the last 666 questions?.

Answers

It is possible to calculate the probability that in the last 6 questions, there were fewer than 2 right answers, which is 53.392%.

What is Probability?

The ratio of good outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability. The number of positive results for an experiment with 'n' outcomes can be represented by the symbol x.

The probability of an event can be calculated using the following formula.

Probability(Event) = Positive Results/Total Results = x/n

In order to better grasp probability, let's look at a straightforward application.

Let's say we need to forecast if it will rain or not. Either "Yes" or "No" is the appropriate response to this query.

There is a chance that it will rain or not. Here, probability can be used. Using probability, one may forecast the results of a coin toss, a roll of the dice, or a card draw.

According to our question-

The likelihood that responses to fewer than two of the final six questions were right can be calculated using the procedure below:

There are 6 questions with a total of 4 possible answers, hence the value of p is:

The following formula provides the probability:

The following formula is used to calculate the likelihood that Ira would properly answer exactly 1 of the final 6 questions:

P(X = 1) = 0.35595

P(X = 0) = 0.17797 gives the likelihood that Ira will correctly answer 0 out of the final 6 questions.

 Accordingly, the likelihood that the last 6 questions' answers contain fewer than 2 valid responses is: P = 0.17797 + 0.35595.

P = 0.53392

P = 53.392%

Hence, the probability that in the last 6 questions, there were fewer than 2 right answers, which is 53.392%.
