Question

in a triangle suppose that length of side p is to inches longer than side q. the length of side q is three times as long as side r. suppose that the perimeter of the triangle is 37 inches. find the length of each side

​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the r be x

q=3x

p=3x+2

r=x

perimeter of triangle =37inches

A. T. Q

p+q+r=37

3x+2+3x+x=37

7x+2=37

7x=35

x=35/7

x=5

Side :R=x=5

P=3x+2=15+2=17

Q=3x=3*5=15.

Glad I could help you.
