Answer: 2 < x < 7</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
We'll use the hinge theorem here. This says (more or less) that the larger an angle is, the side opposite of that will be longer.
Imagine that the segments with the single tickmarks represent a door swinging open/shut. The more open a door is, the further the distance it is from the handle to the frame. In terms of these triangles, the segment 25 is larger than 5x-10 because the angle 90 (opposite the 25) is larger than the angle 85 degrees (opposite the 5x-10)
In symbols we say
5x - 10 < 25
We also say 5x - 10 > 0 or 0 < 5x - 10 to ensure that the segment of length 5x-10 is not 0 or negative.
Put the two inequalities together and we get 0 < 5x - 10 < 25
------------
Solve for x
0 < 5x - 10 < 25
0+10 < 5x - 10 < 25 + 10 .... adding 10 to all sides
10 < 5x < 35
10/5 < 5x/5 < 35/5 ... dividing all sides by 5
2 < x < 7
We have x between 2 and 7, and not equal to either endpoint.
The correct answer will be B
Find the area for each shape.
For the triangle face you would do 4 times 6 divided by 2. Then times it by 2 because there are two triangle faces.
For the rectangle face do 5 times 12, then times 3 because there are 3 triangle faces.
Finally add both numbers together to get the surface area.
-1F, 0F, 3F, 5F, 6F Think of this as a normal number line -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3
hope this helped
