Answer:

Option B. 8 mi, 9 mi, 2 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The option A doesn't have a set of numbers which could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle. The numbers 1,9,10 mean that the longest side is exactly the sum of the others. The only possible way is they lie in the same line, no triangle is formed

Option C gives the numbers 1,9,11. It's impossible to have a side of 11 when you have the sum of the others less than 11. The maximum extension of the other sides (forming a line) won't be enough to reach the length of 11

Option D is also infeasible for the same reason as the option A. The three lines must be aligned to be connected in its extremes

Option B is the only one who can provide a set of possible lengths of a triangle since the sum of the shortest sides is greater than the third. If we open wide enough the angle between the 2 mi side and the 8 mi side, we would eventually connect the 9 mi side and form a triangle

Answer:

=8\sqrt{15}b^{\frac{7}{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{24b^3}\sqrt{40b^2}\sqrt{b^2}

=\sqrt{40}\sqrt{b^2}\sqrt{b^2}\sqrt{24b^3}

=\sqrt{40}b^2\sqrt{24b^3}

\sqrt{24b^3}

=\sqrt{24}\sqrt{b^3}

=\sqrt{24}b^{\frac{3}{2}}

=\sqrt{24}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{40}b^2

=\sqrt{2^3\cdot \:3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{40}b^2

=\sqrt{2^3}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{40}b^2

\sqrt{2^3}

=2^{3\cdot \frac{1}{2}

=2^{3\cdot \frac{1}{2}}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{40}b^2

=2^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{40}b^2

=2^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{2^3\cdot \:5}b^2

=2^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{2^3}\sqrt{5}b^2

=2^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\cdot \:2^{\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{5}b^2

=\sqrt{3}b^{\frac{3}{2}}\cdot \:2^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{5}b^2

=\sqrt{3}\cdot \:2^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{3}{2}}\sqrt{5}b^{\frac{3}{2}+2}

2^{\frac{3}{2}+\frac{3}{2}}

=2^3

=2^3\sqrt{3}\sqrt{5}b^{\frac{3}{2}+2}

b^{\frac{3}{2}+2}

=b^{\frac{7}{2}}

=2^3\sqrt{3}\sqrt{5}b^{\frac{7}{2}}

=2^3\sqrt{3\cdot \:5}b^{\frac{7}{2}}

=8\sqrt{15}b^{\frac{7}{2}}

The equation y = 35.25x + 40 gives the labor cost y of repairing a car if takes x hours to repair the car.
Lady_Fox [76]
Y = 32.25 x + 40
If it takes 6 hours to repair a car:
y = 32.25 * 6 + 40 = 193.5 + 40 = $233.50
The closest are $251.50 and $211.50.
$251.50 - $233.50 = $18
$233.50 - $211.50 = $22
$18 < $22
Answer:
The closest estimate is A ) $251.50
