CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME?
The three sides of a triangle are n, 3n+2, and 2n+10. If the perimeter of the triangle is 48m, what is the length of each side?

Respuesta :

I believe to the my mathematical formula that the answer should be 6.3 due to the fact that 48/2 is 24

Answer:

the sides are 6, 20, and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

n + 3n + 2 + 2n + 10 = 48

combine like terms:

6n + 12 = 48

subtract 12 from each side of th equation:

6n = 36

divide both sides by 6:

n = 6

the sides are 6, 20, and 22
