Answer:

5, 13, 10, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

hello, so for this question keep in mind the triangle inequality theorem which states- a side must be smaller than the sum of the other two sides.

go through each of the choices.

a. 5+7=12 12>9

b.2+7=9 9>9 this cant be the answer since 9 is equal to nine, not greater than,

c. 13+7=20 20>9

d.10+7=17 17>9

e.8+7=15 15>9

f.22+7=29 29>9 although 29 is greater than 9, we also have to keep in mind that the other 2 sides must also be greater than the other side. so try 7+9= 16. 16 isnt greater than 22 so it can’t be one of the answers.

hope this helped :)

Bottles of sparkling water usually cost $1.69. The grocer changed the price to 4 for $5. You bought one bottle last week for $1.

sleet_krkn [62]

Given :

Cost of single bottle, C = $1.69 .

Cost of 4 bottles, B = $5 .

You bought one bottle last week for $1.69 and one bottle this week at the 4 for $5 price.

To Find :

Did you pay more or less for the bottle this week at 4 for $5? How much more or less?

Solution :

Effective price per bottle if we purchase 4 is, E = 5/4 = $1.25 .

Regular price, R = $1.69 .

Change in price, C = $( 1.69 - 1.25 ) = $0.44 .

Therefore, we are paying $0.44 less than the actual price.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Nichol walks at a constant pace of 1.2 m/s and takes 15 minutes to get to school.

liraira [26]

Answer:

The difference between the distances they walked is 600 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the distance traveled by Nichol and Sakura with the following equation:

$d = v*t$

Where:

v: is the speed

t: is the time

The distance traveled by Nichol is:

$d_{n} = 1.2 m/s*15min*\frac{60 s}{1 min} = 1080 m$

And the distance traveled by Sakura is:

$d_{s} = 1.4 m/s*20 min*\frac{60 s}{1 min} = 1680 m$

Hence, the difference between the distances they walked is:

$d_{t} = d_{s} - d_{n} = 1680 m - 1080 m = 600 m$

Sakura traveled 600 meters more than Nichol.

Therefore, the difference between the distances they walked is 600 meters.

I hope it helps you!

How to Write 3/9 in simplest form.

White raven [17]

To write it in simplest form, you must find a common factor.

In $\frac{3}{9}$ , 3 is a factor of both 3 and 9

3÷3=1 and 9÷3=3

So $\frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3}$

$\frac{1}{3}$ is your answer in simplest form.
