Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive means in a row
Let x be the first integer
x+1 is the second
x+2 is the third
x+3 is the 4th
The sum is 50
x+ x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 50
Combine like terms
4x+6 = 50
Subtract 6 from each side
4x+6-6 = 50-6
4x = 44
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 44/4
x = 11
The longest side of the triangle has to be less than the sum of the two other sides.
A ⇒ 7 + 8 = 15
B ⇒ 8 + 5 < 14
C ⇒ 6 + 3 < 10
D ⇒ 2 + 6 > 7
The answer is D, because the longest side length (7) is shorter than the two other side lengths (2 and 6).
If the scholarship pays 75% of her classes cost, that means that she has to pay the 25% remaining of the classes cost so if we calculate it as follow:
0.25 * $14,000 = $3,500
=================================================================
Another method to understand:
if the scolarship pays 75% of her classes that will be
0.75* $14,000 = $10,500
now she has to pay the remaining of the total cost and that will be
$14,000 - $10,500 = $3,500.
Answer:
C.) 5, 12, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides must equal the square of the longest side (Pythagoras).
a² + b² = c²
We can test each set of numbers to see which one fits.
A.) 8² + 12² = 16²
64 + 144 = 256
208 ≠ 256
B.) 6² + 7² = 8²
36 + 49 = 64
85 ≠ 64
C.) 5² + 12² = 13²
25 + 144 = 169
169 = 169
The numbers 5, 12, and 13 could represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle.
D.) 16² + 32² = 36²
256 + 1024 = 1296
1280 ≠ 1296
