Answer:
C. Obtuse
Step-by-step explanation:
The "form factor" I use for this is ...
a^2 + b^2 - c^2 = 6^2 + 8^2 - 11^2 = 36 +64 -121 = -21
The value is negative, indicating an OBTUSE triangle.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
In this expression, 'a' and 'b' are the two shortest sides (in no particular order) and 'c' is the longest side. The interpretation is ...
negative — obtuse
zero — right
positive — acute
__
If you're familiar with Pythagorean triples, you know that the 3-4-5 right triangle triple can be doubled to give 6-8-10. The long side of 11 is longer than the hypotenuse for the right triangle, so would correspond to a largest angle greater than 90°. The 6-8-11 triangle would be OBTUSE.
Answer:
The population can be greater than 6,100 but less than 6,300, and thus, we cannot determine if the population of Farmersville will be greater than 6,300 in 2012.
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequality for the population of Farmsville:
The inequality for the population of Farmsville in x years after 2010 is given by:
Will the population of Farmersville be greater than 6,300 in 2012?
2012 is 2012-2010 = 2 years after 2010, so we have to find y(2).
The population can be greater than 6,100 but less than 6,300, and thus, we cannot determine if the population of Farmersville will be greater than 6,300 in 2012.
