Question

Answer  A triangle has sides with lengths that are consecutive on integers the perimeter of the triangle is 141 cm sketch the triangle and label the links of the sides using the variable find the length of the largest side 

Answer 1

are the sides consecutive integers or consecutive odd integers ??

if consecutive integers...

x+x+1+x+2=141

3x+3=141

3x=138

x=46 cm, x+1=47 cm, x+2=48 cm

if consecutive odd integers...

x+x+2+x+4=141

3x+6=141

3x=135

x=45 cm, x+2=47 cm, x+4=49 cm
