Answer:

least number is 7 and greatest number is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has two sides measuring 8.5 cm and 15 cm

a=8.5, b= 15cm

To form a triangle , the sides should satisfy the following conditions

a+b>c  and a+c>b

a+b>c

Plug in the values

8.5+15>c

23.5>c

c

a+c>b

Plug in the values

8.5+c>15

subtract 8.5 from both sides

c>6.5

So c lies between 6.5  and 23.5

least number is 7 and greatest number is 23

Which of the following is an extraneous solution of startroot 4 x 41 endroot = x 5? x = –8 x = –2 x = 2 x = 8
Gnom [1K]

The extraneous solution of startroot 4 x 41 endroot = x 5 will be A. -8.

<h3>What is an extraneous solution?</h3>

It should be noted that an extraneous solution simply means a root of a transformed equation which isn't part of the original equation.

✓4x + 41 = x + 5

Square both sides

4x + 41 = x² + 10x + 25

x² + 6x - 16

x(x + 8) - 2(x + 8) = 0

x + 8 = 0

x= 0 + 8 = 8

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

5x + 32 < 50

Step-by-step explanation:

On a particular airline, bags checked in must weigh less than 50 pounds. Betty packed 32 pounds of clothes and five gifts that weigh the same amount.

If each gift weighs w pounds, then the weight of five gifts will be 5w pounds and an additional 32 pounds of clothes will make it total (32 + 5w) pounds.  

Now, this total weight has to be less than 50 pounds.

Therefore, the inequality equation that can be used to find the possible weight of each gift, w is
