Answer:

Less than 21 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the multiplier.

We have been given that the lengths of the sides of a triangle are in the ratio 5:6:7. The perimeter of all sides of the triangle would be 5x+6x+7x.

We have been given that the perimeter is less than 54 cm.

We can set this information in an inequality as:

5x+6x+7x

18x

\frac{18x}{18}

x

Since the length of longest side is 7x, so:

7x

7x

7x

Therefore, the length of the longest side will be less than 21 cm.

Answer:

length of the longest side is  less than 21

Step-by-step explanation:

5n+6n+7n=18n

18n<54

n<54/18

n<3

7*3=21( longest side. )

(1 point) Rework problem 15 in section 2 of Chapter 5 of your textbook about the growing suburb and the declining city using the
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

320000 + 5000x

The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

624000 - 14000x

The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:

320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x

14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000

19000x = 304000

x = 304000 / 19000

x = 16

In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

Sand falls onto a conical pile at the rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. The radius of the pile is always equal to one half it al
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Either one of these.

Step-by-step explanation:

volumepile=1/3 (PI r^2)h

but r=h/2, so

volume=1/12 PI h^3

dv/dt=10 ft^3/min

but dv/dt=1/12 PI 3h^2 dh/dt

solve for dh/dt

This assumes you mean by "altitude" the height. If you mean altitude as slant height, you have to adjust the fromula

_______________________________________________

given: r = h/2

V = (1/3)π r^2 h

= (1/3)π (h/2)^2 (h)

= (1/12) π h^3

dV/dt = (1/4)π h^2 dh/dt

for the given data ...

10 = (1/4)π(25)dh/dt

dh/dt = 10(4)/((25π) = 1.6/π feet/min
