In the diagram below, x is a whole number. what is the smallest possible value for x?
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side

so

x+x>17\\2x>17\\x>8.5\ units

The value of x must be greater than  8.5\ units

so

If x must be a whole number

therefore

The smallest possible value for x is 9\ units

Find four consecutive numbers whose sum equals 218
Softa [21]

Answer: 53, 54, 55, and 56

Step-by-step explanation: This problem states that the sum of 4 consecutive numbers is 218 and it asks us to find the numbers.

4 consecutive numbers can be represented as followed.

X ⇒ <em>first number</em>

X + 1 ⇒ <em>second number</em>

X + 2 ⇒ <em>third number</em>

X + 3 ⇒ <em>fourth number</em>

Since the sum of our 4 consecutive numbers is 218, we can set up an equation to represent this.

X + X + 1 + X + 2 + X + 3 = 218

On the left side of the equation, we can combine our x's and our numbers.

4x + 6 = 218

      -6     -6   ← <em><u>subtract 6 from both sides of the equation</u></em>

4x = 212

÷4    ÷4   ← <u><em>divide both sides of the equation by 4</em></u>

 <u>X = 53</u>

<u />

X ⇒ <em>first number   = 53</em>

X + 1 ⇒ <em>second number   = 54</em>

X + 2 ⇒ <em>third number   = 55</em>

X + 3 ⇒ <em>fourth number   = 56</em>

<em />

<em>Therefore, our 4 consecutive numbers are </em><em>53</em><em>, </em><em>54</em><em>, </em><em>55</em><em>, and </em><em>56</em><em>.</em>

Situation:A researcher in North America discoversa fossile that contains 65% of its originalamount of C-14..-ktN=NoeNo inital am
zheka24 [161]

SOLUTION

We have been given the equation of the decay as

\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ where\text{ } \\ N_0=initial\text{ amount of C-14 at time t} \\ N=amount\text{ of C-14 at time t = 65\% of N}_0=0.65N_0 \\ k=0.0001 \\ t=time\text{ in years = ?} \end{gathered}

So we are looking for the time

Plugging the values into the equation, we have

\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ 0.65N_0=N_0e^{-0.0001t} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=\frac{0.65N_0}{N_0} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=0.65 \end{gathered}

Taking Ln of both sides, we have

\begin{gathered} ln(e^{-0.000t})=ln(0.65) \\ -0.0001t=ln(0.65) \\ t=\frac{ln(0.65)}{-0.0001} \\ t=4307.82916 \end{gathered}

Hence the answer is 4308 to the nearest year
