Answer:
A yes, B no
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle inequality states that the sum of any 2 sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side.
A Given 21, 18, 17 , then
21 + 18 = 39 > 17
21 + 17 = 38 > 18
18 + 17 = 35 > 21
Thus the triangle could exist
B Given 3, 12, 8 , then
3 + 12 = 9 > 8
3 + 8 = 11 < 12 ← fails the test
Thus the triangle does not exist
Answer:
Let's define the variables:
M = number of books that Marcus has.
x = number of books that Jessie has.
We know that:
"Marcus has one book less than three times the number of books that Jessie has."
Then the equation that represents the number of books that Marcus has is:
M = 3*x - 1.
Then if x tiles represent the number of books that Jessie has, the number of tiles for Marcus will be 3 times that, and then subtract one tile.
Answer:
I guess this is the correct answer
Answer: 16 flowers per tree, 352 flowers on 22 trees.
Step-by-step explanation:
115 flowers/ 7 trees= 16.4 flowers per tree
Since you can't have partial flowers, round down to 16 flowers per tree.
16 flowers per tree * 22 trees=352 flowers
OK. Then let's solve for ' r '. That means you have to come up with an equation that says r = everything else.
Step #1:
Write the equation you're given: <span>S = L (1 - r)
Let's divide each side by ' L ': S/L = 1 - r
Subtract 1 from each side : S/L - 1 = -r
Multiply each side by -1 : <em> 1 - S/L = r</em>
and there you have it.
