Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u> states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side
In this problem
If the perimeter of triangle is equal to 36 cm
The longest side can't be equal to 18 cm
The student is incorrect
Because if the longest side is equal to 18 cm, and the perimeter is equal to 36 cm, then the sum of the other two sides is equal to 18 cm
and
Applying the triangle inequality theorem
Let
c -----> the longest side
a and b the other two sides
we have that
if c=18 cm
a+b > c
a+b > 18 cm
therefore
If the longest side is 18 cm, the sum of the other two sides must be greater than 18 cm and the perimeter will be greater than 36 cm
To find the linear equation, use the slope formula y = mx+b, where b is the value of the y-intercept and m is rise/run.
The line rises 1 unit and runs (left to right) -5 units. (you could also say the line runs -1 units and runs 5 units, they will both give the same answer). Rise/run, 1/-5 = -1/5.
The y-intercept is the y value where the line touches the y-axis. In this case, it is +1.
Plug the information into the equation. m = -1/5 and y = 1. y = -1/5x + 1
Lets write an equation for each guy's shots and score:
4A + 2B = 18
3A + 3B = 21
To solve we multiply the first equation by -3 and the second by 2:
-12A - 6B = -54
6A + 6B = 42
--------------------
-12A + 0 = -12
A = 1
to find B we substitute in the first equation:
<span>4A + 2B = 18
</span><span>4(1) + 2B = 18
</span><span>4 + 2B = 18
</span>2B = 14
B = 7
therefore there were given 7 points in an arrow in B
Answer:
a. Parallel
b. Not parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Systems which have no solutions are parallel lines. These lines do not intersect and therefore have no solution. Remember, parallel lines have the same slope. Compare the slope in each equation when in y=mx+b format to see if they are parallel.
a. y= 2x + 3 y-2x=-3 becomes y = 2x - 3
m = 2 m= 2
The slopes are the same so these are parallel lines.
b. 3x + y = 2 becomes y= -3x + 2 y = 1/3 x + 1/2
m = -3 m= 1/3
The slopes are different so this is not parallel.
Since -3 and 1/3 are the negative reciprocals of each other. These lines are actually perpendicular.
