The given statement is a false statement because -12 is not equal to -15 and also -15 is less than -12 which are correct answers would be Options (A) and (D).

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are not equal.

The given statement as:

⇒ -12 ≤ -15

Since -12 and -15 are not equal and -15 is smaller than -12, the preceding statement is incorrect.

So the following statements are correct:

It is a false statement because -12 is not equal to -15.

It is a false statement because -15 is less than -12.

Hence, the given statement is a false statement because -12 is not equal to -15 and also -15 is less than -12 which are correct answers would be Options (A) and (D).

Which of the following inequalities would be graphed with an open circle?
icang [17]

3(x - 2) < 18 and h + 6 > -3h + 12 would be graphed with an open circle.

Open circle is a term used for numbers that are less than (<) or greater than (>). On the other hand, Closed circle is used for numbers that are less than or equal to (≤ ) and greater than or equal to (≥).

Here, we are given four inequalities, let us check them one by one-

A. h + 6 > -3h + 12

⇒ 4h > 6

or h > 3/2

Here, we see that there is no equality sign, this means that 3/2 won't be included and hence h + 6 > -3h + 12 would be an open circle inequality.

B. 7 ≥ d/3

⇒ d ≤ 21

Here, we can clearly see the equality sign which means that 21 will be included. Hence, 7 ≥ d/3 would not be graphed with an open circle.

C. 3(x - 2) < 18

x - 2 < 6

x < 8

Here, we see that there is no equality sign, this means that 8 won't be included and hence 3(x - 2) < 18 would be graphed with an open circle.

D. 2y ≤ 14

y ≤ 7

Here, we can clearly see the equality sign which means that 7 will be included. Hence, 2y ≤ 14 would not be graphed with an open circle.

Thus, 3(x - 2) < 18 and h + 6 > -3h + 12 would be graphed with an open circle.

If AC=5cm, BC=12cm, and m AC= 40 degrees what is the radius of the circumscribed circle
melamori03 [73]
Let's assume they meant C=40 degrees.  With an angle like that they're asking for approximation; we'll oblige.

The circumradius is the product of the triangle sides divided by four times the area.

Here we have remaining side given by the Law of Cosines.

AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2 - 2\ AC \ BC \cos C

AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2  - 2 AC \ AB \cos C = 5^2 + 12^2 - 2(5)(12) \cos 40^\circ

AB = \sqrt{  169 - 120 \cos 40 ^\circ}  \approx 8.77921789

The area is \frac 1 2\ AC \ BC \sin C = \frac 1 2 (5)(12) \sin 40^\circ \approx 19.283628



The circumradius is  r \approx \dfrac{(5)(12)(8.77921789 )}{ 4 (19.283628) }  = 6.829019329

A student has a 2% salt water solution and a 7% salt water solution. To best imitate salt water at a local beach, he needs 1 lit
FromTheMoon [43]

Let

x-------> the amount of 2\% solution

y--------> the amount of 7\% solution

we know that

2\%=0.02\\7\%=0.07\\3.5\%=0.035

so

x+y=1

y=1-x -------> equation A

0.02x+0.07y=0.035 -------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

0.02x+0.07(1-x)=0.035

0.02x+0.07-0.07x=0.035

0.05x=0.035

x=0.7\ liters

find the value of y

y=1-x

y=1-0.7=0.3\ liters

therefore

The student need 0.7\ liters of 2\% solution and 0.3\ liters of 7\% solution

<u>the answer is</u>

A) The percent values were written incorrectly in the equation

B) The amount of 7% solution should be written as 1 – x, not x – 1.
