3 connecting lines are shown. Line D F is horizontal. Line D E is about half the length of line D F. Line F E is about one-third

of the length of line D F.
Which inequality explains why these three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle?

ED + EF < DF
ED + EF > DF
EF + FD < DE

The inequality that explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is ED + EF < DF

<h3>Inequalities </h3>

From the question, we are to determine which of the given inequalities explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle

From the given information,

Line DE is about half the length of line DF

That is,

ED = 1/2 DF

Also,

Line FE is about one-third of the length of line DF

That is,

EF = 1/3 DF

Then, we can write that

ED + EF = 1/2DF + 1/3DF

ED + EF = 5/6 DF

Since,

5/6 DF < DF

Then,

ED + EF < DF

Hence, the inequality that explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is ED + EF < DF

Why is it important to consider scale when graphing inequalities?
tigry1 [53]
<span>If two numbers on a graph differ by 1, without scale, the amount of inequality could vary infinitely. If the scale is 2, a difference of 1 is half the scale amount, but if the scale is 1000, the difference may be negligible. It is the scale that shows the degree to which the entries differ.</span>

A tank is full of water. Find the work (in ft-lb) required to pump the water out of the spout. Use the fact that water weighs 62
Leno4ka [110]

The Work required to pump water out of the spout  would be equal to 464,062.5 π

<h3>How can we calculate the work done?</h3>

Given data :

3 ft, 4 ft, 5 ft A right triangular prism tank with a spout is given.

weight of water = 62.5 Ib/ft³

inner radius ( r ) = 3 x 2 =6 ft

Outer radius ( R ) = 3 x 4 = 12 ft

Height ( h ) = 3 x 5 = 15 ft

To determine the work required to pump water out of the spout

y = Vertical distance

dv = cross-section volume

dw = weight

The radius of the tank

Radius = ( r - R ) y/h + R

Radius = ( 6 - 12 ) y/15 + 12

So, Radius = 12 - 0.4y

dv ( cross section volume )

\pi r^2\\\\\pi (12 - 0.4y)^2dy\\

Weight of cross-section ( dw ) = 62.5 ( 12.5 - 0.4y )² π dy

The work done to pump water out of the spout will be

Work done =  ∫¹⁵₀ 62.5 ( 12.5 - 0.4y )² π dy

∴ Work done ( W ) = 464,062.5

Hence we can conclude that the Work required to pump water out of the spout  would be 464,062.5 π
