The sides of a triangle are 1, x, and x2. what are possible values of x?
Whitepunk [10]
The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².

The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.

Consider 3 cases
Case (a):  x < 1,
      Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
      We require that x² + x ≥ 1
      Solve x² + x - 1 = 
      x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
      Reject the negative length.
     Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.

Case (b): x = 1
   This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
    The sides are 1, 1 and 1.

Case (c): x>1
  In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
  We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
  Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
  x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
  Reject the negative answr.
 The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.

Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.

Convert 1/15 to a decimal. Enter the decimal using an ellipsis, and then enter the decimal using an overbar. Write the repeating
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The decimal form of \frac{1}{15} = 0.0666... = 0.0\overline{666}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We proceed to find the decimal form of \frac{1}{15}, whose description is found below:

1) Multiplying the numerator by 100 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.06, Remainder: 10

2) Multiplying the remainder by the 10 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.066, Remainder: 10

3) Multiplying the remainder by the 10 and dividing it by 15:

Partial result: 0.0666, Remainder: 10

Since the decimal number is a infinite and periodical, we conclude that decimal form of \frac{1}{15} = 0.0666... = 0.0\overline{666}.

The sum of two numbers is 2. Their difference is -16. What is the first number?
Helen [10]

Answer: The first number is 4

Explanation: Since the sum of the two numbers is ten, x + y = 10

Also, since the difference of the two numbers is two, then x - y = 2

Since x - y = 2, another way to write that is x = y + 2 and since x is exactly the same as y + 2, we can plug in "y + 2" in place of x in the first equation (x + y = 10) to get (y + 2) + y = 10. Then we solve this equation by combining like-terms.

2y + 2 = 10

2y = 8

y = 4

Since x = y + 2, x = 4 + 2 or x = 6

I hope this helped you!
