Answer: Increase in number or size, at a constantly growing rate. It is one possible result of a reinforcing feedback loop that makes a population or system grow (escalate) by increasingly higher amounts.
Answer: Yes the sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes the sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.
Let us assume that the two numbers are a and b and ab is the number.
a + b > a
b > a – a
b > 0
This therefore implies that b > 0.
This may however not be true when the value of b is zero(0) or a negative number.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The bottom of a river makes a V-shape that can be modeled with the absolute value function, d(h) = ⅕ ⎜h − 240⎟ − 48, where d is the depth of the river bottom (in feet) and h is the horizontal distance to the left-hand shore (in feet). A ship risks running aground if the bottom of its keel (its lowest point under the water) reaches down to the river bottom. Suppose you are the harbormaster and you want to place buoys where the river bottom is 20 feet below the surface. Complete the absolute value equation to find the horizontal distance from the left shore at which the buoys should be placed
Answer:
To solve the problem, the depth of the water would be equated to the position of the river bottom.

We can find the value of x through a proportion. Since these two triangles are similar, their sides are in proportion.
4 is to 12 as 5 is to x
Remember to say 12, not 8! 8 is only part of the whole side. We can also simplify 4 is to 12 to 1 is to 3.
1/3 = 5/x
Cross multiply
x = 15
Hope this helps!
If the two lengths of the triangle are 2x+6 and x-1
(2x+5)+(x-1)=3x+4
(10x+2)-(3x+4)= 7x-2
