An equilateral triangle has a side length of 40.

Another side of the same triangle measures 3x​ + y.
The third side of the same triangle measures 4x​ - 2y.
What are the values of x and y that would keep the triangle​ equilateral?

Answer:

x=12, y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

All the sides are the same length.

3x+y = 40

4x-2y = 40

Eliminate y terms: divide second equation by 2 and add to first equation

2x-y = 20

3x+y = 40

---------------

5x = 60

x = 12

y = 40-3x = 4

Answer:

We know that all sides of the equilateral triangle is equal.

Given :---

An equilateral triangle has a side length of 40.

Another side of the same triangle measures

3x + y.

The third side of the same triangle measures

4x - 2y.

According to the above problem, the equation are

3x+y=40........(i) and 4x-2y=40.........(ii)

Divide the equation (ii) by 2, we get

2x-y=20..........(iii)

Now solving for x and y we get,

3x+y=40.......(i)

2x-y=20........(iii)

5x =60

x=60/5

x=12

Putting the value of x in equation in equation (iii) we get

24-y=20

y=24-20

y=4

The values of x and y that would keep the triangle equilateral are 12 and 4 respectively.

Hence, the value of x is 12 and y is 4.
