Question

Is anyone good at Algbera/ Algebra topics?

Answer 1

Very good - what can I help you with Jessica?

Answer 2

Who's bad @ them?

Answer 3

Um...me. I'm not that good at it. Thank you, Chaise. I'll post it here...

Answer 4

Better than geometry ;)

Answer 5

I'll do my best to answer

Answer 6

...

Answer 7

What does the directions exactly state?

Answer 8

Saifoo, go away you make me feel stupid.
The question is: Find the perimeter of the figure when x=1.7

Answer 9

Just because your a genius and all....no offense, Saifoo...

Answer 10

The perimtre is:
p = x + 2x + 2x
Altogether we have 5x.

P = 5x
If x = 1.7
P = 5 x 1.7
P = 8.5

the perimetre when x = 1.7 is 8.6

Answer 11

Oooops. That should say 8.5
I hope I helped.

Answer 12

Um...how did you get 5? Is it because you added like terms, Chaise?

Answer 13

You just plug in 1.7 to x to each:
1.7(2) + 1.7(2) + 1.7

Answer 14

Yes, so the sides are two times as long as the base, and there is two sides.

There is 2x along each side, there is two sides. There is also a base, which is x. If you add altogether you get 5x.

Perimetre of the triangle = 5x
The restrictions on the equation say x = 1.7
Perimetre = 5x
Perimetre = 5x1.7
Perimetre = 8.5

Does this make sense?

Answer 15

Oh, um...yeah. It does make sense. I just got a little confused. Is there a equation for the triangle or is it 8.5 still yet?

Answer 16

There is an equation for a triangle, but it isn't used here. Do you want me to give you a similar question?

Answer 17

.......yes,please.

Answer 18

An equalatral triangle has a perimetre of 12cm. Find the length of one side of the triangle?

Answer 19

12/3 then?
