Answer:
the shortest side is 855 miles long.
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b + c = 3078 miles
a = b - 71
c = b + 371
=>
(b-71) + b + (b+371) = 3078
3b + 300 = 3078
3b = 2778
b = 926 miles
a = 926 - 71 = 855 miles
c = 926 + 371 = 1297 miles
Answer:
A) -4
B) 4 units apart
C) no values of x
Step-by-step explanation:
1) slope of m: (3-2)/(10-8) = ½
m(x) = ½x + c
2 = ½(8) + c
c = -2
m(x) = ½x - 2
m(16) = 6
h(4) = (4-2)²/2 = 4/2 = 2
h(4)-m(16) = 2-6 = -4
B) y-intercept of:
*h(x) = ½(0-2)² = 2
*m(x) = -2
from the equation found before
2 - (-2) = 4 units apart
C) m(x) = (x-4)/2
m(x) > h(x)
(x-4)/2 > ½(x-2)²
x-4 > x²-4x+4
x²-5x+8 < 0
(x - 2.5)² + 1.75 < 0
Never negative
