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

The length of a rectangle is 5 centimeters less then twice it's width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 26 cm. What are the dim
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangle are length = 7cm and width = 6cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for the dimensions, you will need to set up two equations in order to solve for the missing variable.  Given the information that the length is 5 cm less then twice it's width, using 'L' for length and 'w' for width we get the following equation:  L = 2w - 5.  Perimeter is the sum of all the sides, or in the case of a rectangle P = 2w + 2L.  We can then use our expression for 'L' in our perimeter formula:  26 = 2w + 2(2w - 5).  First, using the distributive property we get: 26 = 2w + 4w - 10.  Next, we combine like terms:  26 = 6w - 10.  Then, we use inverse operations to isolate the variable:  26 + 10 = 6w - 10 + 10 to get 36 = 6w, divide both sides by 6 to get w = 6.  Lastly, plug in the value of 'w' to 'L':  L = 2(6) - 5 or L = 7.
