How many triangles can you make from straws with the lengths 2,1,2 inches?

Mathematics
1 answer:
marysya [2.9K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

You can make one triangle with these lengths

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u> states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

Verify if the lengths satisfy the triangle inequality theorem

1) 2+1 > 2

3 > 2 ------> is true

2)2+2 > 1

4 > 1 -----> is true

so

The lengths  satisfy the triangle inequality theorem

therefore

You can make one triangle with these lengths

Use function notation to write a recursive formula to represent the sequence: 3, 6, 9, …
dlinn [17]

Answer:

f(n) = f(n - 1) + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute $ n = 1, 2, 3,.. $ to get the recursive formula.

OPTION 1: f(n) = f(n - 1) + 3

Substituting n = 1.

f(1) = f(1 - 1) + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3.

Substituting n = 2.

f(2) = f(2 - 1) + 3 = f(1) + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6.

Substituting n = 3.

f(3) = f(3 - 1) + 3 = f(2) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9.

The numbers match the given sequence. So, we say the above recursive formula represents the sequence.

OPTION 2: f(n) = f(n - 1) + 2

Substituting n = 1

f(1) = f(0) +  2 $ \ne $ 3.

So, this is eliminated.

Similarly, OPTION 3 and OPTION 4 can be eliminated as well.
