The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 2:8:9. If the perimeter of the triangle
is 76 inches, find the length of each side.

The length of the sides are 8 , 32 , 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of sides = 2  : 8 : 9

The sides are 2x , 8x , 9x

Perimeter of triangle = 76 inches

2x+ 8x + 9x  = 76

              19x = 76

                 x = 76/19

x = 4

2x = 2*4 = 8

8x = 8 * 4 = 32

9x = 9 * 4 = 36

y = - 6

step-by-step explanation:

given the point (- 2, y) lies on the graph then it is a solution of it's equation.

substitute x = - 2 into the equation for value of y

y = 3(- 2) = 3 × - 2 = - 6

the point on the graph is (- 2, 6)

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10
