In this item, it is unfortunate that a figure, drawing, or illustration is not given. To be able to answer this, it is assumed that these segments are collinear. Points L, M, and N are collinear, and that L lies between MN.
The length of the whole segment MN is the sum of the length of the subsegments, LN and LM. This can be mathematically expressed,
LN + LM = MN
We are given with the lengths of the smalller segments and substituting the known values,
MN = 54 + 31
MN = 85
<em>ANSWER: MN = 85</em>
Answer:
9x-27
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-3)+5(x-3)=4x-12+5x-15=4x+5x-12-15=9x-27
Answer:
1 and 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/4 is equal to 13/4 and 1 3/4 is equal to 7/4. 13/4 - 7/4 is 6/4. 6/4 equalsn is 1 1/2.
0.5 < x < 16.5 given: Two sides of triangle: 8.0 units and 8.5 units
Measure of third side = x
According to the triangle's inequality,
Sum of any two sides > third side. (i)
Difference between the sides < third side. (ii)
If x is the third side, then
x < 8+8.5 [Using (i)]
i.e. x< 16.5
Also, x > 8.5-8 [Using (ii)]
i.e. x> 0.5
Hence, Range of possible sizes for side x would be 0.5 < x < 16.5.
