Lenox wants to make an equilateral triangle with a perimeter of 3x+ 9. is this possible? why or why not?

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to separate 54 into 6 individual tiers then you need to divide if you want to separate 54 into 6 individual tiers then you need to divide 6 and 54.

if you divide 9 by 6 you will get 54.
