Answer:

21 different positive integers could be the length of the third side.

Step-by-step explanation:

By triangle inequality, the sum of two sides cannot be greater than the third.

This means that the third side is between (17-11)=6 and (17+11)=28.

How many integers are between there? You could write them out and count them!

Or!

The highest integer the third side can be is 27 and the lowest integer it can be is 7.

So 27-7+1=20+1=21.

Select the ordered pairs that represents a solution to the functions below. F(x)= - x^2 +5.F(x)=x^2+5.
svp [43]

Answer:

(0,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)  y = -x² + 5

(2) y = x² + 5

  2y =10           Added (1) and (2)

(3) y = 5           Divided each side by 2

   5 = x² + 5    Substituted (3)into (2)

   0 = x²          Subtracted 5 from each side

  x = 0           Took the square root of each side

The only ordered pair that represents a solution to both functions is (0, 5).

The graph of the second function is an upward-opening parabola (y = x²) translated up five units.

The graph of the first function is a downward-opening parabola (y = -x²) translated up five units.

The two graphs meet at their common vertex, (0, 5).

A small plane and a large plane are 6.8km from each other, at the same altitude (height). From an observation tower, the two air
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

7.9km

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)See attached for the diagram representing this situation.

(b)

In Triangle ABC

\text{Using Law of Sines}\\\dfrac{\sin A}{a}=\dfrac{\sin C}{c} \\\dfrac{\sin A}{5.2}=\dfrac{\sin 58^\circ}{6.8} \\\sin A=5.2 \times \dfrac{\sin 58^\circ}{6.8}\\A=\arcsin (5.2 \times \dfrac{\sin 58^\circ}{6.8})\\A=40.43^\circ

Next, we determine the value of Angle B.

\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180^\circ\\40.43+58+\angle B=180^\circ\\\angle B=180^\circ-(40.43+58)\\\angle B=81.57^\circ

Finally, we find b.

\text{Using Law of SInes}\\\dfrac{b}{\sin B}=\dfrac{c}{\sin C} \\\dfrac{b}{\sin 81.57^\circ}=\dfrac{6.8}{\sin 58^\circ} \\b=\dfrac{6.8}{\sin 58^\circ} \times \sin 81.57^\circ\\b=7.9km $ (to the nearest tenth of a kilometer)

The distance between the small plane and the observation tower is 7.9km.
