The lengths of three sides of a triangle are (x + 6) inches, (2x - 2) inches, and (2x+ 6) inches. The perimeter of the triangle is 85 inches. What is the length of the shortest side of the triangle?

21 inches answer F

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6+2x-2+2x+6=85

5x+10=85

5x=75

x=15

shortest is x+6

15+6

21.

Hope this helps plz hit the crown :D

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36
