can julia cute a triangular path for a quilt that has side lengths of 1 1/2 inches, 2 inches, and 4 inches? explain.

1 answer:

4 0

One of the triangle inequalities state that the sum of any 2 sides must be larger than the third side. More importantly, the sum of the smaller two side must be longer than the largest side. So your smaller 2 sides are 1.5 and 2......which has a sum of 3.5. Your third side is 4. So the sum of the 2 sides is NOT greater than the third side.....so these cannot be the sides of a triangle. Hope this helped.

What is the common ratio of 2, 10/3, 50/9

mojhsa [17]

The common ratio of 2, 10/3, 50/9 is $\frac{10}{6}$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, series of elements are $2, \frac{10}{3}, \frac{50}{9}$

We have to find the common ratio of the above given series.

We know that, common ratio of an G.P is division of any number in that series with the previous number of the series.

So, now take $\frac{10}{3}$ and 2

$\text { Then, common ratio }=\frac{\frac{10}{3}}{2}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Common ratio }=\frac{10}{3} \times \frac{1}{2}} \\\\ {\text { Common ratio }=\frac{10}{3 \times 2}=\frac{10}{6}}\end{array}$
