Here is an example you can learn from.

#1:   Is it possible to form a triangle with the given side lengths? If not, explain why not. 1. 5 cm, 7 cm, 10 cm SOLUTION:   The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. Yes; 5 + 7 > 10, 5 + 10 > 7, and 7 + 10 > 5 ANSWER:   Yes; 5 + 7 > 10, 5 + 10 > 7, and 7 + 10 > 5

2. 3 in., 4 in., 8 in. SOLUTION:   No; . The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. ANSWER: 3+4*8

3. 6 m, 14 m, 10 m SOLUTION:   Yes; 6 + 14 > 10, 6 + 10 > 14, and 10 + 14 > 6 .  The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. ANSWER:   Yes; 6 + 14 > 10, 6 + 10 > 14, and 10 + 14 > 6 

4. MULTIPLE CHOICE If the measures of two sides of a triangle are 5 yards and 9 yards, what is the least possible measure of the third side if the measure is an integer? A 4 yd B 5 yd C 6 yd D 14 yd SOLUTION:   Let x represents the length of the third side. Next, set up and solve each of the three triangle inequalities. 5 + 9 > x, 5 + x > 9, and 9 + x > 5 That is, 14 > x, x > 4, and x > –4. Notice that x > –4 is always true for any whole number measure for x. Combining the two remaining inequalities, the range of values that fit both inequalities is x > 4 and x < 14, which can be written as 4 < x < 14. So, the least possible measure of the third side could be 5 yd.  The correct option is B. ANSWER:   B

What is the solution to the system of equations? -2x + y = -5 3x – 2y = 12 A) (3, 1) B) (6, 3) C) (-2, -9) D) (-2, -1)
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) (-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this system of equations, start by multiplying the entire first equation by 2. Then add the two equations together. This will get the y's to cancel and allow you to solve for x.

-4x + 2y = -10

3x - 2y = 12

---------------------

-x = 2

x = -2

Now that we have the value for x, we can find y by plugging the x value into either equation.

-2x + y = -5

-2(2) + y = -5

-4 + y = -5

y = -1

In JKL, k=4.1 cm,j=3.8 cm and angle J=Q3^ Find all possible values of angle K , to the nearest inch of a degree .
spayn [35]

Answer:

74.0°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle JKL, k = 4.1 cm, j = 3.8 cm and ∠J=63°. Find all possible values of angle K, to the  nearest 10th of a degree

Solution:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are right angled triangle, scalene triangle, equilateral triangle and isosceles triangle.

Given a triangle with angles A, B, C and the corresponding sides opposite to the angles as a, b, c. Sine rule states that for the triangle, the following holds:

\frac{a}{sin(A)}=\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}

In triangle JKL, k=4.1 cm, j=3.8 cm and angle J=63°.

Using sine rule, we can find ∠K:

\frac{k}{sin(K)}=\frac{j}{sin(J)}   \\\\\frac{4.1}{sin(K)}=\frac{3.8}{sin(63)}  \\\\sin(K)=\frac{4.1*sin(63)}{3.8}\\\\sin(K)=0.9613\\\\K=sin^{-1} (0.9613)\\\\K=74.0^o  \\

Suppose you have a 6-face unfair dice with numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6 on each of its faces. If the probability distribution of throwing
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select which of the options is correct.

The correct option is the option D

Since the die is unfair, we expect that the probability of each of the numbers turning up

will not be equal.

However, we should also expect that if we add the chances of all the numbers occurring together, then the total probability should be equal to 1. But this does not work in this case;

In this case, adding all the probabilities together, we have;

1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/2

= 5(1/12) + 1/2 = 5/12 + 1/2 = 11/12

11/12 is not equal to 1 and thus the probability distribution cannot be correct

If it takes four men three hours to dig two holes, how long does it take one man to dig three holes?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

it will take one man 18 hours to dig the three holes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can set up a simple relation as follows:

4 men dig two holes in 3hours

4 men will dig 1 hole in x hours.

2 holes => 3 hours

1 hole => x hours

x = (1 X 3)/2 = 1.5 hours

Therefore, 4 men will dig 1 hole in 1.5 hours.

From this, we can find how long it will take 1 man to dig 1 hole

if 4men dig a hole in 1.5 hours

1 man will dig 1 hole in x hours

4 X 1.5 = 6 hours

1 man will dig 1 hole in 6 hours

finally, if 1 man digs a hole in 6 hours, it will take the man 6 hours X 3 to dig 3 holes = 18hours

it will take one man 18 hours to dig the three holes
