The triangle inequality tells us that the sum of the two shorter sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.

Here, 21 cm is one of the shorter sides, and x cm must be the length of the other shorter side.

So using the triangle inequality, 
21+x > 2x
or x<21 cm
To the nearest 0.1 cm, the greatest possible length of the longest side (2x) is 2*21-0.1 cm = 41.9 cm < 2x=42 cm.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so there is

3, 0-4                  4, 5-9                2, 10-14             1, 15-19       1, 20-24

so you can get rid of the last one saying it has more than 1 number between 20-24.

The 3rd one has to short of numbers for 0-4.

the second one has way to many 0-4's when there should be 3 of them.

therefore your answer is The firstone.

-104=-8(k+8) <br><br> K = ?<br> Solution please if can?
maksim [4K]

Let's solve this question by step by step.

Layout equation.

−104=−8(k+8)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−104=−8(k+8)

−104=(−8)(k)+(−8)(8)(Distribute)

−104=−8k+−64

−104=−8k−64

Step 2: Flip the equation.

−8k−64=−104

Step 3: Add 64 to both sides.

−8k−64+64=−104+64

−8k=−40

Step 4: Divide both sides by -8.

-8k/-8=-40/-8

The answer for this problem is k=5.
