1 yes 2 no 3 yes
Step-by-step explanation:
A sum of 17 and a difference of 1
Find the longest side of a parallelogram.
Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 ( a + b )
We know that,
Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 ( a + b )
★ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get:
⇒ 66 = 2 ( 3x + 1 + 2x - 3 )
⇒ 66 = 2 ( 5x - 2 )
⇒ 66/2 = 5x - 2
⇒ 33 = 5x - 2
⇒ 5x - 2 = 33
⇒ 5x = 33 + 2
⇒ 5x = 35
⇒ x = 35/5
⇒ x = 7 ft
Now,
One side,a = 3x + 1
★ Putting the value of x
⇒ 3 × 7 + 1
⇒ 21 + 1
⇒ 22 ft
Other side,b = 2x - 3
★ Putting the value of x
⇒ 2 × 7 - 3
⇒ 14 - 3
⇒ 11 ft
Hence,thelongestSideofgivenparallelogramis22ft(3x+1).
