If a bag of pumpkin seeds must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted, each bags must weigh between (400-2.1) grams and (400+2.1) grams. This means that if a bag weighs less than 397.9 grams (x<397.9) or more than 402.1 grams (x>402.1) it will be rejected. Therefore, 397.9>x>402.1 is the range of rejected bags.

Answer:

x397.9 \ grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of rejected bags is found by summing and subtracting the 400 grams to 2.1 grams, because the second one represent the acceptable margin.

So, we have:

(400-2.1) \ grams

However, this interval represents the accepted range. The rejected range would be the opposite. Therefore, the asked range is:

x397.9 \ grams

You have 52 inches of yellow ribbon and 64 inches of red ribbon. You want to cut the ribbon into pieces of equal length with no
Tju [1.3M]
The greatest length is the gcf of 52 and 64.

52 = 2 x 2 x 13
64 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

gcf = 2 x 2 = 4

Therefore, the greatest length of the pieces that can be made = 4 inches

Write a SIMPLIFIED inequality for x that would give a rectangle with a length of 4 meters and a width of x+7 meters an area of m
Rashid [163]

Answer:

128 > 4*(x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 4 meters

Width = x + 7 meters

Area = 128 m²

Mathematically, the area of a rectangle is given by the formula;

Area of rectangle = length * width

Substituting into the formula, we have;

128 > 4*(x + 7)

128 > 4x + 28

128 - 28 > 4x

100 > 4x

Dividing both sides by 4, we have;

25 > x

Indicate the method you would use
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

correct choice is 1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

Two given triangles have two pairs of congruent sides: one pair of length 7 units and second pair of length 8 units. The third side is common, i.e the lengths of third sides are equal too.

Use SSS theorem that states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

Thus, given triangles are congruent by SSS theorem.
