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.

A college student Earned $6500 during summer vacation working as a waiter. The student invested Part of the money at 10% and the

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The amount invested at 10% rate is $ 2200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total amount earn by student = $6500

The total interest received at the end of year = $607

Let the amount invested at 10% rate = $x

So, The amount invested at 9% rate = ($6500 - $x)

Let the time for which money invested = 1 year

<u>Now from Simple Interest method :</u>

SI = $\frac{principal\times Rate\times Time}{100}$

Or, SI_1 + SI_2 = $\frac{x\times 10\times 1}{100}$ + $\frac{(6500-x)l\times 9\times 1}{100}$

Or, SI_1 + SI_2 = $(\frac{10x}{100})+\frac{(6500-x)\times 9}{100}$

Or, $607 × 100 = 10x + (6500-x) × 9

Or, $60700 = 10x- 9x + 58500

Or, $60700 - $58500 = x

Or , 2200 = x

∴ x = 2200

So, The amount invested at 10% rate = $x = $ 2200

Hence The amount invested at 10% rate is $ 2200 Answer

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (4, 2) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y= x/3−1

Alex_Xolod [135]

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal. Therefore, the line we are looking for has a -3 slope.
y= -3x+b

Now, we can substitute in the point given to find the intercept.
2= -3(4)+b
2= -12+b
b=14

Finally, put in everything we've found to finish the equation.
y= -3x+14
