Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side. Note: This rule must be satisfied for all 3 conditions of the sides

Try A (2,4,7)

2+4<7 so it is wrong

Try B (2,4,2)

2+4>2

2+2 = 4 wrong

Try D (2,4,6)

2+4 = 6 wrong

Try C (2,4,5)

2+4>5

4+5>2

5+2>4

yay it works

Answer: (C) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequality states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. Therefore, if x is the third side, then 2+4>x, and x+2>4.

Therefore, x<6 and x>2, meaning that 2<x<6. The only choice that satisfies this is 5.

Which quantity is proportional to 18⁄3? Check all that are true. 90⁄16 36⁄6 72⁄12 6⁄1 36⁄12
NikAS [45]

Answer:

36/6, 72/12, and 6/1

Step-by-step explanation:

18/3=6, so we just need to find the fractions that simplify into 6 (we reduce fractions by dividing the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor, in this case the number must be whole, so we are just going to divide the numerator by the denominator). 90/16=5.625, it does not equal 6, so it is not proportional to 18/3, this is also true for 36/12=3. 36/6=6 so it is proportional, so is 72/12=6 and, obviously 6/1=6 so it, too, is proportional to 18/3.

Which function has a vertex at the origin?
Crank

Answer:

B) f(x)=x(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the function which has vertex at the origin.

Solution:

For a function to have its vertex at origin the function must pass through point (0,0) which means f(0)=0.

We will find f(0) for each of the given functions and check if it has vertex at origin.

To find f(0) we will plugin x=0 in the function.

A) f(x)=x+4

f(0)=0+4=4

Vertex is  not at the origin.

B) f(x)=x(x-4)

f(0)=0(0-4)=0  [Any number times zero is = zero]

Vertex is at the origin.

C) f(x)=(x-4)(x+4)

f(0)=(0-4)(0+4)=(-4)(4)=-16

Vertex is  not at the origin.

D) f(x)=2

f(0)=2

Vertex is  not at the origin.
