Answer:
C 24
D 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the choices offered:
5 and 7 will not form a triangle* with any of the other lengths
7 and 12 will not form a triangle with any of the other (longer) lengths
7 and 24 will form a triangle with the other possibilities, 25 and 29. (needs further consideration)
7 and 25 will not form a right triangle with 29, because a right triangle cannot have 3 odd-length sides.
__
<em>Further consideration</em>
7^2 +24^2 = 49 +576 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . checking Pythagorean theorem
The side measures 7, 24, 25 will form a right triangle.
_____
* A triangle can be formed from three segments only if the sum of the shortest two exceeds the length of the longest one.

Answer:
x = 25; both labeled angles are 65º
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x, recall that the angles formed by two parallel lines on the same line are equal if they correspond to each other.
In the figure given above, we have two parallel line given. The angle formed by each parallel line is corresponding to the other. Therefore, both angles formed are equal.
Thus,
(3x - 10)° = (x + 40)°
Solve for x
3x - 10 = x + 40
Subtract x from both sides
3x - 10 - x = x + 40 - x
3x - x - 10 = x - x + 40
2x - 10 = 40
Add 10 to both sides
2x - 10 + 10 = 40 + 10
2x = 50
Divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 50/2
x = 25
*Plug in the value of x to find the measure of each labelled angles:
(3x - 10)° = 3(25) - 10 = 75 - 10 = 65°
(x + 40)° = 25 + 40 = 65°
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, they have opposite slopes.
The first line is y = 2x + 3. Its slope is 2. A line perpendicular to this one will have a slope of -1/2.
Plug this value (-1/2) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.
y = -1/2x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (1, 2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
2 = -1/2(1) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (1)
2 = -1/2 + b
Now, add 1/2 to both sides to isolate b.
5/2 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = -1/2x + 5/2
This equation is perpendicular to your given equation (y = 2x + 3) and contains point (1, 2)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to determine the equation of the boundary line.
The line has y-intercept of c=7 and slope .
The slope is given by y=mx+c.
We substitute the slope and intercept to get:
.
Since the lower half plane is shaded, with the boundary being a dashed line, the required inequality is
