Answer:

  • shortest: 11 inches
  • longest: 39 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two side lengths for a triangle, the triangle inequality tells you the third side must have a length between the difference and the sum of the given sides.

__

<h3>A. minimum length</h3>

The difference of the given sides 25 and 15 is ...

  25 -15 = 10

The smallest integer greater than 10 is 11.

The third side must be at least 11 inches long.

__

<h3>B. maximum length</h3>

The sum of the given sides is ...

  25 +15 = 40

The largest integer smaller than 40 is 39.

The third side must be at most 39 inches long.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Formally, the triangle inequality tells you that sides a, b, c must satisfy ...

  a +b > c  and  b +c > a  and  c +a > b

When we're considering the length of third side (c), there are 3 cases to consider. 1) c is shortest; 2) c is between the other lengths; 3) c is longest. Without loss of generality, we can assume a > b.

1) c is shortest:

  • a+b>c is always true.
  • b+c>a ⇒ c>a-b (the positive difference)
  • c+a>b ⇒ c>b-a (the negative difference)

conclusion: c > a-b

2) a > c > b:

  • a+b>c is always true.
  • b+c>a ⇒ c>a-b (the positive difference)
  • c+a>b ⇒ c>b-a (the negative difference)

conclusion: c > a-b

3) c is longest:

  • a+b>c (the sum)
  • b+c>a ⇒ c>a-b (the difference will be less than the sum)
  • c+a>b ⇒ c>b-a (the negative difference will be less than the sum)

conclusion: a -b < c < a+b . . . . . . for a>b

A elevation starting at 11,049 feet. After 6 hours the elevation is 7,569 feet. What's the rate of change in feet per hour.
bezimeni [28]
The change is 580 feet per hour.

11049 - 7569 is 3480.

Then 3480 ÷ 6 is 580.

Use the information frompart a to write an equation representing the number of colories burned each minute while bowling. Let m
Fofino [41]

Answer:

To find the number of calories burned:

Find the Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) value of the task.

Calculate the number of calories burned per minute. (MET x body weight in kg x 3.5) / 200.

Multiply the calories burned per minute by the number of minutes of activity.

Now, as per the question, weight is 125 pounds (lb), we will convert the weight in kilogram (kg) which is 1 lb = 0.453 kg, it means 125 lb = 56.7

Now we have to find the MET,

A metabolic equivalent (MET) value is a measurement of the energy cost of a specific physical activity for a specific period of time.

For example. A MET of 1 would be roughly equivalent to a person's energy expenditure from sitting still in a room temperature and not actively digesting food.

As per the Calorie guide value of MET for bowling is 3.9

Now the overall formula is

Calorie Burn (x) = ((MET * body weight in kg * 3.5) / 200) * (Number of minutes) m

x = ((3.9*56.7*3.5)/200) * m

Finally, x = 3.87 m represents the number of calorie burned (x) while bowling m minutes.
