Two sides of a triangle measure 3 inches and 6 inches what is the possible measure of the third side

Mathematics
1 answer:
IRINA_888 [86]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4-8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Using triangle inequality (let a, b, c be the side lengths of a triangle. a+b>c, and vice versa). The least length of the third side is 4 because 3+4>6. This is not possible for 3 because 3+3 is not greater than 6. The greatest is 8 because 3+6>8. It cannot be 9 because 3+6 is not greater than 9.

What is the value of hin the figure below? In this diagram, ABAD ~ ACBD.
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

  F.  8

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the long side to the short side is the same in similar triangles. The long side of triangle BAD is AD, which has length 20-4 = 16.

  BD/DE = AD/BD

  h/4 = 16/h

  h^2 = 64 . . . . . . . multiply by 4h

  h = 8 . . . . . . . . . . take the square root (matches selection F)

_____

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>

BD = √(AD·DC) is called the "geometric mean" of the segments AD and DC. This geometry has some other geometric mean relationships as well:

BC = √(AC·DC)

BA = √(AC·AD)

Nick's Printing Press promptly sold 5-cent pencils and 10-cent pens to the public. It sold 1000 writing utensils and took $74.50
galben [10]

Answer:

  • 490 pens
  • 510 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of pens Nick sold. Then the revenue is ...

  0.10p +0.05(1000 -p) = 74.50

  0.05p = 24.50 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 50

  p = 490 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 20

The number of pencils sold is then ...

  pencils = 1000 -490 = 510

Nick's Printing Press sold 490 pens and 510 pencils.

A car costs$cents when new. It was sold for four fifths of its cost price. How much money was lost on the car.
REY [17]

The question is incomplete as the cost price isn't given. However, taking the cost price as x :

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

A car costs$cents when new. It was sold for four fifths of its cost price. How much money was lost on the car.

Let :

Cost price when new = x

Cost price when sold = 4/5 * cost price when new

Cost when sold = 4/5 of x = 4x/5

Amount of money lost on the car = (Cost price of car when new - Cost of car when sold)

Hence,

Amount of money lost on the car = (x - 4x/5)

x - 4x/5 = (5x - 4x) / 5 = x / 5

To obtain the exact price, kindly input the omitted cost when new for x.
