2 1/2 pounds is more. Since there are 16 oz in a pound, you want to multiply 16 by 2.5, to equal 40 oz. 40>36

Suppose you are given information about a triangle according to SSS, SAS, and ASA. For which of these can you immediately use th
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

SSS and SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of cosines: The law of cosines is used for calculating one side of a triangle when the angle opposite and the other two sides are known.

If the information about a triangle according to SSS, SAS and ASA is given, then we will immediately use SSS and SAS  by using the law of cosines to find one of the remaining measures because Law of cosines is applied if we know one angle opposite and the other two sides.

Also, in ASA, we know two angles and one side, thus we cannot use Law of cosines in this, rather Law of sines can be accurately use in this case.

if you have two sides, encroaching an angle, then the Law of Cosines can be used to find a missing side, thus SAS will work fine for that, now, if you have no angles given, but you know all sides, you can use the Law of Cosines as well, by solving it for the angle, and get the angles, on which case, SSS will do... .now as far as ASA, if you have two angles and one side known, then... that's not very workable for the law of cosines

please mark me brainliest :)

F(x) = { -2x -1, x ≤ 2
Degger [83]

Answer:

Use the appropriate entry method for piecewise functions for the graphing calculator of interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Desmos, the entry looks like ...

f(x) = {x ≤ 2: -2x-1,-x+4}

_____

For a TI-84 calculator, the entry may look like ...

Y₁ = (-2X–1)(X≤2) + (-X+4)(X>2)

The symbols ≤ and > come from the TEST menu, which is the (2nd) shift of the MATH key.

Note that the function is the sum of the pieces, each piece multiplied by a test. For something like 0≤x<2, the multiplier would be a pair of tests:

... (0≤X)(X<2)

Can you help me with explanation will give brainiest
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Area of rectangular garden = lxb = 10*5

                                             = 50 sq. inch

when area increases by six times

new area = 50*6 = 300 sq inches

now,

let x be increasement in both  length and width

(5+x) (10+x) = 300

50 + 5x + 10x + x² = 300

x² + 15x - 250 = 0

x²+ 25x-10x -250 = 0

x(x+25) - 10 (x+25) = 0

( x-10) (x+25) = 0

either x + 25 =0

x = -25 length can be negative

0r x-10 = 0

x = 10

so 10 inches is increase on both side

The numerator and denominator of a fraction are in the ratio of 3 to 5. If the numerator and denominator are both increased by 2
ivolga24 [154]

Question:

The numerator and denominator of a fraction are in the ratio of 3 to 5. If the numerator and denominator are both decreased by 2, the fraction is now equal to  \frac{1}{2}.

If n = the numerator and d = the denominator, which of the following systems of equations could be used to solve the problem?

5n = 3d and n - 2 = 2d - 4

5n = 3d and 2n - 4 = d - 2

3n = 5d and 2n - 4 = d - 2

Answer:

5n = 3d and 2n – 4 = d – 2

Solution:

Let n be the numerator of the fraction and d be the denominator of the fraction.

Given the numerator and denominator of a fraction are in the ratio of 3 to 5.

This can be written as n : d = 3 : 5.

⇒ \frac{n}{d}= \frac{3}{5} – – – – (1)

Do cross multiplication, we get

⇒ 5n = 3d

When the numerator and denominator are decreased by 2, the fraction is equal to \frac{1}{2}.

⇒ \frac{n-2}{d-2}= \frac{1}{2}

Do cross multiplication, we get

⇒ 2(n –2)=1(d – 2)

⇒ 2n – 4 = d – 2

Hence, 5n = 3d and 2n – 4 = d – 2 can be used to solve the problem.
