i tried 5z-1+z+6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
probably wrong steps. :/
hero (hero):
If ux is the bisector of v, then UX = XW
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I know 46 is NOT my answer cuz thats how i got it wrong the frst time. o: So im left with A,C,D.

oh so you mean, 3z-4=z+6 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
z=5
hero (hero):
You have everything you need to find the perimeter now.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait, how?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do i plug in 5 with the other part of the problem?

5(5)-1=4
hero (hero):
You plug 5 back into the expressions to find their values.
hero (hero):
5(5) - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3(5)-4=15-4=11
OpenStudy (anonymous):
24+11=35

Yes, but you're not done of course
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no? o:
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what else?
hero (hero):
The perimeter is the distance around the figure. That means the length of every outer segment is included.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you lost me..

i know you add up all the sides to get the perimeter.
hero (hero):
Yes. Have you done that yet?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i thought i did..
hero (hero):
You added every outer side of the triangle?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
...im confused...

i thought we did that.
hero (hero):
Perimeter of UVW = UV + VW + UW
hero (hero):
What's the length of UV?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
uv+5z-1+3z-4+z+6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk what uv is, theres no number.

lol what the...
hero (hero):
You shouldn't do it that way. Find the numerical length of each segment.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont function well when im lacking sleep. D: ...use words that i can understand. lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No doctor language.
hero (hero):
UW = 3z - 4 + z + 6 = `4z + 2` = 4(5) + 2 = `22`

UV = VW = 24
hero (hero):
UW + UV + VW = 24 + 24 + 22 = 48 + 22 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
70=70
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks i got my answer! :) woo.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you should srsly get paid for this. (x
