To answer this, we let x some factor that would agree or make the ratio given true. We calculate as follows:

<span>2:3:4
2x:3x:4x

2x = 12
x = 6 

Therefore, the length of the longest side would be 4x = 4(6) = 24 cm, third option.</span>

Answer:

Option 3rd is correct that is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the shortest  side of the triangle which is 12 centimeters.

We have been given the ratio of the three sides of the triangle

let the unknown side of the triangle be x

So, according to the ratio given we will have sides as:

2x : 3x :4x

since, shortest side is 12

So, 2x=12

x=6

Now, we have to find the longest side which is 4x

So, the required side is: 4 x 6 =24 centimeters

Therefore, option 3rd is correct.

The graph below shows the solution to which system of inequalities?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider option D. y\leq \frac{3x}{4}+10\,,\,y\leq \frac{-x}{2}-3

Take point (0,0)

On putting this point in inequation y\leq \frac{3x}{4}+10 , we get

0\leq 10 which is true . So, solution is region towards the origin i,e region below the line y= \frac{3x}{4}+10 including the line itself .

On putting (0,0) in inequation y\leq \frac{-x}{2}-3 , we get 0\leq -3 which is false , so solution is region away from the origin i.e region below line y= \frac{-x}{2}-3 including the line itself .

So, common solution to both the inequations is the shaded part in the given figure .

In other words, we can say that the graph shown in the given figure represents system of equations: y\leq \frac{3x}{4}+10\,,\,y\leq \frac{-x}{2}-3

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1/3 is the simplified form for given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

=\sqrt[-3]{27}

By simplifying:

Radical sign will be removed as follows:

= 27^{-1/3}

For removing the "-" sign from power, base will be inverted:

= (1/27) ^ {1/3}

27 can also be written as 3 * 3 * 3 = 3^3

So,

= (1/3^3)^{1/3}

= 1^{1/3} / 3^{3* 1/3}

By simplifying we get:

= 1/3

i hope it will help you!
