A triangle has one side length of 12 inches and another of 8 inches. Describe all possible lengths of the third side.

Mathematics

jasenka [17]2 years ago

Answer:

The possible lengths of the third side is all real numbers greater than 4 inches and less than 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

<u>The Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

Let

x -----> the possible lengths of the third side

Applying the Inequality Theorem

1) 12+8 > x

20 > x

Rewrite

x < 20 in

2) 8+x > 12

x> 12-8

x > 4 in

therefore

4 in < x < 20 in

The possible lengths of the third side is all real numbers greater than 4 inches and less than 20 inches

What value should be added to the expression to create a perfect square? x^2 - 20x
boyakko [2]
To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation

-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 = <span> <span> <span> 3.1622776602 </span> </span> </span>
x1 = <span> <span> <span> 13.1622776602 </span>
and don't forget that square root of 10 also equals  </span></span><span><span><span> -3.1622776602 </span> </span> </span>

When does the​ t-distribution approach the standard normal​ distribution? Choose the correct answer below. A. When the standard
const2013 [10]

Answer:

E. When the sample size​ increases, because the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means better estimates the population standard deviation for larger sample sizes.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • T distribution is similar to the normal distribution and is seen when the estimates of the variance are based on the degree of freedom and has a relatively more score in its tail and has a greater change of extreme values.
