It is given :Steven is cutting an 11 ft piece of lumber into three pieces to build a triangular garden . We need to find  the measure of the pieces made by Steven so that a triangle can be formed.

By Triangle Inequality Theorem we have: The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

If we look at the options Option D is fulfilling this property  that is sum of two sides is greater than the third side. The given sides in option D are 3ft, 4ft, 4ft

3+4> 4

4+4>3

4+3>4

Sum of two sides of the trian gle is always greater than the third side .

Option D : 3ft, 4ft, 4ft is the right option.

1. Kalena was asked to prove ifx(x - 1)(x + 1) = x3 - X represents a polynomial identity. She
Verdich [7]

Answer:

C. Kalena made a mistake in Step 3. The justification should state: -x²

+ x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function x(x - 1)(x + 1) = x3 - X

To justify kelena proof

We will need to show if the two equations are equal.

Starting from the RHS with function x³-x

First we will factor out the common factor which is 'x' to have;

x(x²-1)

Factorising x²-1 using the difference of two square will give;

x(x+1)(x-1)

Note that for two real number a and b, the expansion of a²-b² using difference vof two square will give;

a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b) hence;

Factorising x²-1 using the difference of two square will give;

x(x+1)(x-1)

Factorising x(x+1) gives x²+x, therefore

x(x+1)(x-1) = (x²+x)(x-1)

(x²+x)(x-1) = x³-x²+x²-x

The function x³-x²+x²-x gotten shows that kelena made a mistake in step 3, the justification should be -x²+x² not -x-x²

If I have 10 dollars and I win 6 out of 10 and lose 4 out of 10 and bet 1$ each trade, how much should there be left after 10 tr
ololo11 [35]

you will be left with 12 dollars.

<u> </u><u>Step-by-step explanation: </u>

Given:

The actual money you have = 10 dollars.

The bet amount for each trade= 1$

For each win, you get extra +1 dollar.

Step 1:

So, you won 6 trades= (6*1)= 6$

Step 2:

For each lose, you loss -1 dollar.

Step 3:

So, you lose 4 trades= (4)*(-1)= -4$

Step 4:

After 10 trades, the money you earned is= 6$ -4$= 2 dollars.

Finally, the total money left after 10 trades is= actual money + earned money                                                

= $10 + $2= 12 dollars.
