Answer:

It is not possible to form *any* triangle from the lengths 2, 4, and 7. The two short sides don't add to a length at least as long as the long side.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test. Hope this helps!

What is C=24x+80 R=44x breakeven point

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

For this case we have the following equations:
$C = 24x + 80

 R = 44x$
The break even point occur when C = R:
We have then:
$24x + 80 = 44x
$
Clearing x we have:
$44x - 24x = 80

 20x = 80

 x = 80/20

 x = 4$
Then, substituting in any of the equations we have:
$C = 24 (4) +80

 C = 96 + 80

 C = 176$
The break even point is:
(4, 176)
Answer:
The break even point is:
(4, 176)

Follow the directions to solve the system of equations by elimination. 8x + 7y = 39 4x – 14y = –68 Multiply the first equation t

g100num [7]

Answer:

x=0.5 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+7y=39...eqn(1)×-14

4x-14y=-68...eqn(2)×7

we now have,

-112x-98y=-546

-(28x-98y=-476)

-140x÷-140 =-70÷-140

x=0.5

to solve for y, we substitute (x=0.5) into eqn (1) or eqn 2 which ever you want...

so I'm using eqn 1.

8x+7y=39

8(0.5)+7y=39

7y=39-4

7y÷7=35÷7

y=5

therefore, x=0.5, y=5

proof: substitute both x and y values to get you the same answer as the original solutions in both equations.

we have,

8(0.5)+7(5)=39

4(0.5)-14(5)=-68

Kylie has 14 polished stones. Her friend gives her 6 more stones. Write an expression to match the words

Elis [28]

An expression is like an equation, but without an equal sign.

Therefore, you could say...

14 stones + 6 stones

or just...

14 + 6

Question 1:

$7.488*10^{-8}$ ÷ $3.12*10^{2}$

= $\frac{7.488*10^{-8}}{3.12*10^{2}} = 2.4* 10^{-8-2} = 2.4* 10^{-10}$

Hence, the answer is A.

Question 2:

Mass = $2.8* 10^{-11}$ grams

New mass = $2.8 * 10^{-8}$ milligrams

Question 3:

$2.085*10^{6} = 2,085,000$

Hence, the answer is C.
