Answer: A) 0 triangles
============================================================
Explanation:
Adding up the two smaller sides gets us 9.6+11.6 = 21.2, but this result is not larger than the third side of 21.2
For a triangle to be possible, we need to be able to add any two sides and have the sum be larger than the third remaining side. This is the triangle inequality theorem.
I recommend you cutting out slips of paper with these side lengths and trying it out yourself. You'll find that a triangle cannot be formed. The 9.6 cm and the 11.6 cm sides will combine to form a straight line that is 21.2 cm, but a triangle won't form.
As another example of a triangle that can't be formed is a triangle with sides of 3 cm, 5 cm, and 8 cm. The 3 and 5 cm sides add to 3+5 = 8 cm, but this does not exceed the third side. The best we can do is form a straight line but that's not a triangle.
In short, zero triangles can be formed with the given side lengths of 9.6 cm, 11.6 cm, and 21.2 cm
I think it’s 5 but don’t get mad if it’s wrong
55 adult tickets. Set up 2 equations: c+a=125 and 6.1c+9.4a=944. Isolate either variable from first equation and plug into second to find that 55 adult tickets were sold and 70 children’s tickets
1st number = x
2nd number = 3x
3rd number = 2x-10
x +3x + 2x-10 =92
6x - 10 = 92
6x =102
x = 102/6
x = 17
1st number = 17
2nd number = 17*3 = 51
3rd number = 17 *2 = 34-10 = 24
17 + 51 + 24 = 92
3 numbers are 17, 51 and 24
Answer:
The answer is -x+26.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute the -3 into the parthensis and you get -3x+15. You write the whole expression again plus the -3x+15 you got from the distributing part so 8-3x+15+2x+3. You combine the like terms so the x with the x and the numbers with the numbers. From there you get the answer of -x+26. I hope this helps you!
