For the difference to be positive, when both the minuend and the subtrahend are positive, the former must be greater than the latter.

Therefore

minuend = 2 ⇒ subtrahend = 1 ← 1 number

minuend = 3 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2 ← 2 numbers

minuend = 4 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3 ← 3 numbers

minuend = 5 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3,4 ← 4 numbers

minuend = 6 ⇒ subtrahend = 1,2,3,4,5 ← 5 numbers

1+2+3+4+5=<u>15</u>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12.

the formula for the volume of a cone is V=1/3hπr²

549.5 = 1/3(21)(3.14)(x)^2

549.5 = 7(3.14)(x)^2

549.5 = 21.98(x)^2

549.5 = 21.98(x)^2

divide by 21.98 on both sides

25 = (x)^2

sqrt 25 = sqrt x^2

5 = x

13.

the formula for the volume of a sphere is V=4/3πr^3

v=4/3(3.14)9^3

v=4/3(3.14)729

v=(4.186)729

v=3052.08

14.

the formula for the volume of a sphere is V=4/3πr^3

523=4/3(3.14)r^3

523=4/3(3.14)r^3

523=(4.186)r^3

divide by 4.186 on both sides

124.92=r^3

cube root on both sides

4.998=r

round

5=r

Which of the following are among the five basic postulates of euclidean geometry
docker41 [41]

Answer : The Euclidean geometry is a mathematical system that is attributed to Alexandrian Greek mathematician Euclid. He described mostly about the Elements in geometry. The method consisted of assuming a small set of intuitively appealing axioms, and deducing many other propositions from these.

The five basic postulates of euclidean geometry are as follows;

  1. A straight line may be drawn between any two points.
  2. A piece of straight line may be extended indefinitely.
  3. A circle may be drawn with any given radius and an arbitrary center.
  4. All right angles are equal.
  5. If a straight line crossing two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, the two straight lines, if extended indefinitely, meet on that side on which are the angles less than the two right angles.
