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.

Addy bought a new shirt and she had a 20% off coupon . The coupon took $8.25 off of the price of her shirt. What did she pay wit
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Addy had 20% off coupon.

           The coupon took $8.25 off of the shirt price.

Lets assume the original cost of shirt be "x".

We know Addy had 20% off coupon, which help to reduce the price of shirt by $8.25.

∴ We can form an equation to know the original price of shirt.

⇒\frac{20}{100} \times x= \$ 8.25

⇒\frac{1}{5} \times x= \$ 8.25

Multiplying both side by 5

⇒x= 8.25\times 5

∴ x= \$ 41.25

Hence, The original cost price of shirt was $41.25.

Next, finding the price paid by Addy for her new shirt by reducing coupon discount from the cost of shirt.

Price paid by Addy for her new shirt= \$ 41.25- \$ 8.25= \$ 33

Hence, Addy paid $33 for her new shirt.

When making a guess and retesting this information, a theory or ___________ may be formed which explains why something has occur
podryga [215]
Model <span>

When making a guess and retesting this information, a theory or <u>model</u> may be formed which explains why something has occurred or what it may look like. Models are a representation of a certain situations that has occurred. These models can provide and amplify a clearer perception and comprehension of how and what processes are involved in an occurred phenomenon. And by that said, it can change and be modified depending on which factor catalyzed the alterations. </span>

Barbara’s orange weighs 5 ounces. She ate 1/3 of the orange. How many ounces of the orange did Barbara eat?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

1.67 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is take 5 and multiply that by 1/3 to get what 1/3 of 5 is. By doing that you get 5/3 which simplifies to 1.6667 repeating but you can round to 1.67 and thats your answer.

How to solve this ? I am not sure pls if you know the answer answer it I really neeed it for marks
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

L.S = R.S ⇒ Proved down

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some rules in trigonometry

  1. sin²α + cos²α = 1
  2. sin2α = 2 sin α cosα
  3. cscα = 1/sinα

To solve the question let us find the simplest form of the right side and the left side, then show that they are equal

∵ L.S = csc2α + 1

→ By using the 3rd rule above

∴ L.S = \frac{1}{sin2\alpha} + 1

→ Change 1 to \frac{sin2\alpha}{sin2\alpha}

∴ L.S = \frac{1}{sin2\alpha} + \frac{sin2\alpha}{sin2\alpha}

→ The denominators are equal, then add the numerators

∴ L.S = \frac{1+sin2\alpha}{sin2\alpha}

∵ R. S = \frac{(sin\alpha+cos\alpha)^{2} }{sin2\alpha}

∵ (sinα + cosα)² = sin²α + 2 sinα cosα + cos²α

∴ (sinα + cosα)² = sin²α + cos²α + 2 sinα cosα

→ By using the 1st rule above, equate sin²α + cos²α by 1

∴ (sinα + cosα)² = 1 + 2 sinα cosα

→ By using the 2nd rule above, equate 2 sinα cosα by sin2α

∴ (sinα + cosα)² = 1 + sin2α

→ Substitute it in the R.S above

∴ R. S = \frac{1+sin2\alpha}{sin2\alpha}

∵ L.S = R.S

∴ csc 2α + 1 = \frac{(sin\alpha+cos\alpha)^{2} }{sin2\alpha}
