Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x + 8
f(x) = 10
10 = x + 8
minus 8 from the both sides
10 - 8 = x
2 = x
x = 2
Answer: the correct answer is 11 hours, 21 seconds and 3738 fractions of a second.
Step-by-step explanation:
An American gallon has 3.78541 liters.
3,600 gallons are 13,627.46 liters since 3,600 gallons * 3.78541 liters per gallon= 13,627.46 liters
We will need 681.3738 minutes to fill the pool since 13,627.46 liters divided by 20 liters per minute = 681.3738 minutes
681.3738 minutes is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds since 11*60 minutes + 21.3738 minutes = 660 minutes + 21.3738 seconds = 681.3738 or 681.3738 divided by 60 minutes ( 1 hour ) is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds.
Answer:
x-intercept = 2
y-intercept = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
x-intercept: 6x = 12; x = 2
y-intercept: 2y = 12; y = 6
Answer:
By the triangle side length theorem, the sum of the two shorter sides has to be equal to or larger than the third side. Thus, we can write the following inequation.
a
+
b
≥
c
, where a and b are the shorter sides and c the longest.
11, 9 and 15 satisfies this inequality while 11, 9 and 20 doesn't.
Justification:
The reason for this rule is simple; it's because if the longest side is longer than the sum of the two shorter sides, this means that the shorter sides aren't long enough to connect with the longest side, thus rendering the shape a collection of lines and disqualifying the possibility of having a triangle, which was our objective.
