The sets of numbers which could represent the three sides of a triangle is {6,14,17}. Option A is the correct option.

<h3>What is triangle inequality theorem?</h3>

Triangle inequality theorem of a triangle says that the sum of the two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side.

Suppose a, b and c are the three sides of a triangle. Thus, according to this theorem,

(a+b) > c\\(b+c) > a\\(c+a) > b

The sides of first option are, 6,14,and 17.

6+14 > 17\\20 > 17

This set satisfy the triangle inequality theorem. All the other options do not follow, to satisfy this theorem.

Thus, the sets of numbers which could represent the three sides of a triangle is {6,14,17}. Option A is the correct option.

It is given 5 and h + 1 are the roots of the quadratic equation x² + (k - 1)x - 5 = 0,where h and k are constant.Find the value
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Hello,

<u>k=-3 and h=-2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

5\ is\ a \ root \of \ x^2+(k-1)*x-5=0\\\\5^2+(k-1)*5-5=0\\\\5*(k-1)+20=0\\\\k-1=\dfrac{-20}{5} \\\\k=-4+1\\\\\boxed{k=-3}\\

h+1 is thus a root of x²+(-3-1)*x-5=0

x²-4x-5=0

x²+x-5x-5=0

x(x+1)-5(x+1)=0

(x+1)(x-5)=0

h+1=-1

<u>h=-2</u>

Adult tickets to a play cost $2.25 each and student tickets cost $1.25 each. Suppose there are twice as many student tickets sol
Ganezh [65]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 300 adult tickets
  • 600 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We can group tickets into a group that has 2 student tickets and 1 adult ticket for a price of 2($1.25) +2.25) = $4.75. The number of these groups sold is ...

  $1425/4.75 = 300

300 adult tickets and 600 student tickets were sold.

The magnitude and direction of two forces acting on an object are 100100 ​pounds, S7878degrees°​E, and 5050 ​pounds, N5353degree
amm1812

Answer:

  138.06 lb N86.1°E

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways you can work this. One of the most straightforward is to resolve each vector into its north and east components, add those, and then covert the result back to magnitude and direction.

A diagram can help immensely.

We note that S78°E is the same as E12°S. Since we're used to seeing the coordinate system with the +x axis aligned with east, it can be convenient to think of the first force as 100 lb at -12°.

The angle of the second force is N53°E, which can be expressed as E37°N. Then in x-y coordinates, this force is 50 lb at +37°.

The components of the sum are the sum of the components:

  R = F1 +F2 = (100cos(-12°) +50cos(37°), 100sin(-12°) +50sin(37°))

  = (137.747, 9.300)

The the magnitude of the resultant is computed using the Pythagorean theorem:

  ||R|| = √(137.747² +9.300²) ≈ 138.06

and the angle is computed using the arctangent function. Here, our diagram tells us the angle is in the first quadrant, so is positive (relative to +x, or East).

  ∠R = arctan(9.300/137.747) ≈ 3.9°

__

We want to express the answer in terms similar to the way the given forces are expressed, so we want the angle relative to north. The resultant is then described by ...

  R = 138.06 lb at N86.1°E

Write the following as an equation. Amy is 16 yrs older than Peter, whose age is 'x' yrs. 6 yrs ago, her age was twice Peter's a
azamat
Amy's current age is 16 years greater than Peter's age, so Amy's current age is equal to x + 16.

6 years ago, Amy's age was equal to twice that of Peter's age at that point, so her age was 2(x - 6).

As currently her age is x + 16 then 6 years ago her age was x + 16 - 6, which is x + 10.

As 6 years ago her age was equal to 2(x - 6) and x  + 10, we can see that x + 10 = 2(x - 6).
