KatRina [158]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cake shared=1/2

Pete share=x

Bill= twice as much as Pete

=2x

Pete's share+ Bill's share=total share

x+2x=1/2

3x=1/2

x=1/2÷3

x=1/2×1/3

=1/6

Pete's share=x=1/6

Bill's share=2x

=2(1/6)

=2/6

=1/3

Which inequality can be used to explain why these three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle?
ryzh [129]

The answer choice which explains that the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is; AC + CB < AB.

<h3>Which inequality explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle?</h3>

Since, It follows from the triangle inequalities theorem that sum of the side lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

Hence, since the sum of sides AC + CB is less than AB, it follows that the required inequality is; AC + CB < AB.

Do the following points represent a function? (0,2) (1,4) (0,4) (3,9) (5,8)​
photoshop1234 [79]
<h3>Answer: No, this isn't a function.</h3>

Why not? Focus on the two points (0,2) and (0,4)

We have the x value x = 0 show up twice. Any time x repeats itself like this, it leads to "not a function" as the result.

In other words, the input x = 0 leads to multiple outputs y = 2 and y = 4 at the same time. A function is only possible if every x input leads to exactly one y output.

If you are a visual learner, then plot all of the points on the same xy grid. Then notice how (0,2) and (0,4) fail the vertical line test to show we don't have a function.

Side note: The y values can repeat themselves in a function.
