Answer:
0.5 < x < 16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The third side of the triangle must be longer than the difference of the other two sides:
x > (8.5 -8.0)
x > 0.5
And it must be shorter than their sum:
x < (8.5 +8.0)
x < 16.5
The third side must be in the range ...
0.5 < x < 16.5
_____
These limits are a direct consequence of the triangle inequality, which requires the sum of the two shortest sides exceed the length of the longest side.
D= # of dimes
q= # of quarters
QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64
COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2
(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q
Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15
q= 19 quarters
STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value
d + q= 64
d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides
d= 45 dimes
CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25
ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
40°
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles QRS and QTS are congruent (HL), so the marked angles are also congruent:
3x +2 = 4x -4
6 = x
Then the total angle measure of angle RST is ...
(3x +2) +(4x -4) = 7x -2 = 7(6) -2 = 40 . . . degrees
m∠RST = 40°
Answer:
18 cups of dried split peas. 16 quarts of water. 6 cups of chopped onions. 8 cups chopped celery. 16 pounds ham shank.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since that is a recipe for 8 people and 8 is a factor of 32, we can multiply the ingredient amounts by 4 (4 x 8 is 32).
2 1/4 c x 8 = 18 c.
2 qt x 8 = 16 qt.
3/4 c x 8 = 6 c.
1 c x 8 = 8 c.
2 lb x 8 = 16 lb.
