Answer:

The length of the longest side are all real numbers greater than 39 inches and less than 51 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an obtuse triangle

c^{2} >a^{2}+b^{2}

where

c is  the length of the longest side

a and b are the two shorter sides

Convert the dimensions in inches

1\ ft=12\ in

3\ ft=3*12=36\ in

substitute the values

c^{2} >15^{2}+36^{2}

c^{2} >1,521

c >39 in

Applying the triangle inequality Theorem

1) 15+36 >c

c

2)  c+15 >36

c>21 in

therefore

The length of the longest side belong to the interval (39,51)

All real numbers greater than 39 inches and less than 51 inches

From the set {2, 17, 19}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true.
frutty [35]

54x = 864

A. x = 17 → 54(17) = 918 ≠ 864

B. x = 2 → 54(2) = 108 ≠ 864

C. x = 19 → 54(19) = 1,026 ≠ 864

<h3>Answer: D. none of these</h3>

Solution

54x = 864     <em>divide both sides by 54</em>

x = 16
