X = length of third side
The third side is unknown and can't be determined to be one fixed number. However, we can find a set of values or a range of acceptable values

If we know that
a = 6
b = 7
are the two given sides, then we can say

b-a < x < b+a
7-6 < x < 7+6
1 < x < 13

So the third side x can be between 1 and 13.
The third side cannot be equal to 1 unit or 13 units because a triangle would not form. Instead a straight line would form.

Note: This idea is using the triangle inequality theorem

The ratio of the areas of the two squares is 25 to 9. The side length of the smaller square is 30 meters. How long is the side l

Ratling [72]

Ratios of Area of the two squares = 25:9
So then let the areas be A1 = 25A and A2 = 9A, A is common element
Side of the smaller area S2 = 30 meters
Area of the smaller square A2 = 30 x 30 = 900
We have area of smaller square as 9A = 900 => A = 100
Area of the large square = 25A = 25 x 100 = 2500.
Hence S1^2 = 2500 => S1 = 50 meters which is 20 meters longer than the
side of the smaller square.

What is 6 times 3/8 in simplest form

agasfer [191]

6 times 3/8 is the same as:

6/1 * 3/8 

Now, multiply the tops and bottoms to get: 

18/8 

We can divide the top and bottom by 2, giving us: 

9/4

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Paul will have no more than $ 450 in next 8 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given on statement, we know that Paul saves all of his earnings weekly. Then, the money save is equal to the sum of initial amount ( $C_{o}$ ), measured in monetary units, and week earning ( $R$ ), measured in monetary units, multiplied by a number of weeks ( $n$ ), dimensionless:
