Can a triangle be formed with side lengths 15, 7, and 6? Explain.

Mathematics

Answer:

<h3>No.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides would be unbalanced. To get the sides of a triangle, you have to add up the first two sides. The two sides combined usually have to be less than or equal to 15 to be considered "balanced". 22 is greater than 15, so that would leave you with an unbalanced triangle, sometimes considered degenerate. A degenerate triangle is a flat triangle that almost looks like a line. The triangle's vertices all lie on the same line, which makes it look very flat. That's why degenerate triangles are rarely considered "balanced" in regards to unit measures. So, given this is an unbalanced triangle, the answer to your question would be no.

Hope this helps!

Which graph represents the given equation?
Alchen [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry of quadratic ax²+bx+c is x=-b/(2a). For the given equation, the axis of symmetry is ...

  x = -4/(2(3/2)) = -4/3

The only graph with its vertex at x=-4/3 is graph A.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can also make the correct choice by evaluating the equation at a couple of different values of x. Convenient ones are x= -1, or 0, or +1. The value at x=0 is the y-intercept, (0, -2), which seems to be a point on all of the graphs. The value at x=1 is 3/2+4-2 = 3.5, which looks like it is only seen on graph A.

Please answer this question!I don’t understand it-Question number 2
Tasya [4]

Answer: The greatest depth of the Southern Ocean is 7.24

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if you add all the greatest depths up, you get 33.23

(33.23 + x)/5 = 8.094

Multiply each side by 5

33.23 + x = 40.47

Subtract 33.23 from each side

x = 7.24

You can check this by adding all the numbers up and dividing them by 5

40.47/5 = 8.094

There are 75 people in a room. Of these people, 2/5 are from Germany. If 4/9 of the people who are not from Germany are from Fra
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

25 people are not from Germany or France.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You first want find out what is the number of people from Germany.

So you would find...

2/5 of 75

or

2/5*75= 30 people from Germany

2. Next you want to to find out the number of people from France.

So you would do the following...

75-30=45 (Subtract the number of people from Germany from 75 so you can get the total number of people from France and other countries)

4/9 of 45 to find the number of people from France.

4/9 *45= 20

3. Lastly you need to find the people who are from neither of the countries listed above.

Add 30+20= 50

Then subtract that number from 75.

75-50= 25 people who are from neither France or Germany.

Voila! This is your answer. Hope this helps! :)
