Answer:
9:30am
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Start time= 8:20am
Folding time= 25min
Time spent on Puzzle= 45min
Total time = 25+45= 70min= 1:10 min
Therefore the time she finishes is
8:20+ 1:10= 9:30 am
Hence she finished by 9:30am
Answer:
A 20/28

Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
Answer:
The least amount is 75 dollars.
The biggest amount is 125 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function will help us determine a range of possible values since we do not know the exact amount of money.
Defining the function.
Let x be the exact amount of money in my pocket, we can define the equation
And we know that the difference between the exact amount of money with 100 dollars must be either 25 dollars more than what we estimated, or 25 dollars less than the estimation. So we can write:
We have a difference inside an absolute value, since we know the difference must be either +25 or -25.
Solving for x
Using the definition of absolute value we have
So if the inside of the absolute value is positive we have the first line of the piece-wise function, that is
Solving for x give us
If the inside of the absolute value is negative we have to use the second line of the piece-wise function definition
Solving for x give us
So the least amount of money in my pocket is 75 dollars and the biggest amount is 125 dollars.
