There are two answers:

B) 5

C) 8

==============================================

Explanation:

If we had a triangle with sides a, b and c, then we can say

b-a < c < b+a

where b is larger than 'a'. This is the triangle inequality theorem

In this case, a = 5 and b = 9 so,

b-a < c < b+a

9-5 < c < 9+5

4 < c < 14

Telling us that c is some number between 4 and 14, not including either endpoint. If c is a whole number, then c could be any value from this set: {5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13}

We see that the numbers 5 and 8 are in this set. The values 3 and 15 are not in the set.

The square of the sum of two consecutive positive even integers is greater than the sum of their squares by 48. Find the two int
koban [17]

Answer:

  • 4 and 6 or -6 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are 2x and 2x + 2.

<u>We have:</u>

  • (2x + 2x + 2)² = (2x)² + (2x + 2)² + 48
  • 4(2x + 1)² = 4x² + 4(x + 1)² + 48
  • (2x + 1)² = x² + (x + 1)² + 12
  • 4x² + 4x + 1 = x² + x² + 2x + 1 + 12
  • 2x² + 2x - 12 = 0
  • x² + x - 6 = 0
  • (x - 2)(x + 3) = 0
  • x = 2, x = -3

<u>The numbers are:</u>

  • 4 and 6 or - 6 and - 4

The perimeter of a rectangular concrete slab is 106 feet and its area is 570 square feet. What is the length of the longer
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The length of the long side of the rectangle is 38 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we test out all possible factors, we will see that 15 x 38 is the most fitting.  

Perimeter: 15 + 15 + 38 + 38 = 106 ft.

Area: 15 x 38 = 570 square ft.

38 ft. is the measurement of the long side and 15 ft. is the measurement of the smaller side.

What are the coordinates of the x-intercept(s) of the graph of y=(x-6)(x+5)
MissTica

Answer:

(-5 , 0) and (6 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the coordinates of the x-intercept(s) of the graph of y=(x-6)(x+5)

we need to solve for x the equation (x-6)(x+5) = 0

(x-6)(x+5) = 0

⇌

x - 6 = 0  or  x + 5 = 0

⇌

x = 6  or  x = -5

therefore

the coordinates are :

(-5 , 0) and (6 , 0)
