the length of sides of a triangle are 2x+(y/2),(5x/3)+y+(1/2) and (2/3)x+2y+(5/2).If the triangle is equilateral it's perimeter is. I will mark u as brainliest

Answer:
For an Equilateral triangle, all three sides are equal in length.
==> 2x + y/2 = (5x/3) + y + 1/2 = (2/3)x + 2y + (5/2)
==> (4x + y)/2 = (10x + 6y + 3)/6
(or)
12x + 3y = 10x + 6y + 3
==> 2x - 3y = 3 --------- (1)
Also,
2x + (y/2) = (2/3)x + 2y + (5/2)
==> (4x + y)/2 = (4x + 12y + 15)/6
==> 12x + 3y = 4x + 12y + 15
==> 8x - 9y = 15 ---- (2)
Multiply (1) by 3 and solve it with (2).
6x - 9y - 8x + 9y = 9 - 15
==> -2x = -6
==> x = 3
Place x = 3 in (2).
==> 8x - 9y = 15
==> 24 - 9y = 15
==> -9y = 15 - 24
==> -9y = -9
==> y = 1
Place x and y values in the any equation.
2x + y/2
==> 6 + 1/2
==> 6.5
Perimeter = Side * 3
==> 6.5 * 3
==> 19.5 cm
Hence, Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 19.5 cm
Given : The length of the sides of a triangle are 2x + y/2 , 5x/3 + y + 1/2 and 2/3 x + 2y + 5/2 . triangle is equilateral.
To find : Perimeter of Triangle
Solution:
Equilateral triangle has all sides of equal length
hence
2x + y/2 = 5x/3 + y + 1/2 = 2x/3 + 2y + 5/2
5x/3 + y + 1/2 = 2x/3 + 2y + 5/2
=> x = y + 2 Eq1
2x + y/2 = 5x/3 + y + 1/2
=> x/3 = y/2 + 1/2
=> 2x/3 = y + 1 Eq2
Eq 1 - Eq2
=> x/3 = 1
=> x = 3
Substituting in Eq 1 or Eq 2
=> y = 1
2x + y/2 = 13/2
5x/3 + y + 1/2 = 13/2
2x/3 + 2y + 5/2 = 13/2
Length of Each side = 13/2
Perimeter of triangle = 3 (13/2) = 39/2
