Which best describes the construction of a triangle if given the segment lengths of 10 cm, 5 cm, and 4 cm?

2 answers:

8 0

It can't be constructed.
The lengths of 4 cm and 5 cm add to 9 cm and that is one too centimeter too short to make an angle with the 3rd side.

Answer:

It is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given three segment lengths and we are asked to describe about the construction of a triangle with given lengths: 10 cm, 5 cm, and 4 cm.

We will use triangle inequality theorem to answer our given problem.

Triangle inequality theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

So let us check our given using triangle inequality theorem as:

$5+10>4$

$15>4$

Now check another side.

$5+4>10$

$9\ngtr 10$

Since the sum of our given two sides is less than third side, therefore, we can not construct a triangle with our given side lengths.

You catch an expected number of 1.51.5 fish per hour. You can catch a fish at any instant of time. Which distribution best chara

Illusion [34]

Answer:

The distribution is Poisson distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

An expected number of fish was caught per hour is 1.5

The distribution that best characterize the number of fish you catch in one hour of fishing is the Poisson distribution

This because generally the Poisson distribution is a distribution that shows the number of times a given event will occur within a defined period of time

Answer:

1. 4/12, 3/9, 2/6, 5/15

2. 4/8, 8/16, 6/12

3. 2/8, 4/16, 3/12

4. 6/8, 9/12, 4/16

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming your question is about all 4 problems shown so I'll explain how to solve all of them.

1. The question is asking you to find an equivalent fraction to 1/3. The easiest way to do this is to reduce all of the options given.

To reduce fractions, first determine if the numerator and denominator share any factors. If they do, divide both terms by the shared factors until you no longer get whole numbers.

Step 1: reduce answer choices

6/16 = 3/8 (done by dividing both terms by 2)

4/10 = 2/5 (divide both by 2)

3/8 = 3/8 (fully reduced)

2/5 = 2/5 (fully reduced)

4/12 = 1/3 (divide both by 4)

5/10 = 1/2 (divide both by 5)

1/2 = 1/2 (fully reduced)

3/9 = 1/3 (divide both by 3)

2/6 = 1/3 (divide both by 2)

5/15 = 1/3 (divide both by 5)

3/8 = 3/8 (fully reduced)

3/4 = 3/4 (fully reduced)

2. This question is solved the same way as question 1.

Step 1: reduce answer choices

2/5 = 2/5

6/9 = 2/3

4/8 = 1/2

3/9 = 1/3

8/16 = 1/2

8/10 = 4/5

7/12 = 7/12

6/12 = 1/2

3. This question is solved the same way as questions 1 and 2.

Step 1: reduce answer choices

3/8 = 3/8

2/8 = 1/4

4/9 = 4/9

2/7 = 2/7

4/16 = 1/4

10/14 = 5/7

6/9 = 2/3

3/12 = 1/4

4. This question is solved the same way as questions 1, 2, and 3.

Step 1: reduce answer choices

6/8 = 3/4

4/9 = 4/9

4/6 = 2/3

9/12 = 3/4

10/12 = 5/6

6/9 = 2/3

12/16 = 3/4

7/9 =7/9

Mario wants to make a rectangular bulletin board for his room using 0.45 m2 of cork tiles.

Nataliya [291]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

We know that,

<u>Area of rectangular bulletin = L × B</u>

L × 50 = 45
L = 45/50 = 9/10cm

<u>Hence, Length of rectangular bulletin is 0.9cm</u>.
