Answer:
d < 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for d by subtracting 8 from both sides. This isolates d:
d + 8 < 35
-8 -8
------- -------
d < 27
5 and 6 is the square root of 28

AB + BC = AC
AB = 2(x + 1)
BC = 3x + 1
AC = 4(x + 2)
Substitute and Solve
AB + BC = AC
2(x + 1) + 3x + 1 = 4(x + 2) Remove the brackets on the left
2x + 2 + 3x + 1 = 4(x + 2) Collect the like terms on the left
5x + 3 = 4(x + 2) Remove the brackets on the right.
5x + 3 = 4x + 8 Subtract 4x from both sides.
5x - 4x + 3 = 8
x + 3 = 8 Subtract 3 from both sides
x =8 - 3
x = 5
Answers
AB=2(5 + 1) = 2 * 6 = 12
BC = 3x + 1 = 3*5 + 1 = 15 + 1 = 16
AC = 4(5 + 2) = 4*7 = 28
The difference between the masses is
4.55·10¹³ kg -1.78·10¹² kg
= 4.55·10¹³ kg - 0.178·10¹³ kg
= (4.55 -0.178)·10¹³ kg
= 4.372·10¹³ kg
Rounded to the appropriate precision, the mass of the Antarctic iceberg exceeds that of the Rock of Gibraltar by ...
