Answer:
<h2>The Possible range for x is : ]8 , 18[</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
To can draw this triangle if:
4x - (2x - 6) < 42 < 4x + (2x - 6)
solve inequality 1 :
4x - (2x - 6) < 42 ⇔ 2x + 6 < 42 ⇔ 2x < 36 ⇔ x < 18 (1)
Solve inequality 2 :
42 < 4x + (2x - 6) ⇔ 42 < 6x - 6 ⇔ 48 < 6x ⇔ 8 < x (2)
from (1) and (2) we deduce that : 8 < x < 18
6 : 2/3.....multiply by 3
18 : 2...reduce
9:1 or 9/1
Answer:
15 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
if the dog run is a rectangles then the formula for the perimeter is 2h+2l
if we plug in the numbers we know we get this:
2h+2(5)=40
2h+10=40
2h=30
h=15
To solve this problem, let us first assign variables. Let
us say that:
A = runner
B = cyclist
d = distance
v = velocity
time = t
The time in which the cyclist overtakes the runner is the
time wherein the distance of the two is the same, that is:
dA = dB
We know that the formula for calculating distance is:
d = v t
therefore,
vA tA = vB tB
Further, we know that tA = tB + 2, therefore:
vA (tB + 2) = vB tB
4 (tB + 2) = 14 tB
4 tB + 8 = 14 tB
10 tB = 8
tB = 0.8 hours = 48 min
Therefore the cyclist overtakes the runner after 0.8
hours or 48 minutes.
