The triangle cannot be made.

Solution:

Given sides of a triangle are 8 ft, 20 ft and 8 ft.

<u>To determine if the triangle can be made:</u>

Let us first define the triangle inequality theorem.

Triangle inequality theorem:

The sum of the lengths of the any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

Using this theorem, we can determine if the triangle can be made or not.

8 ft + 20 ft = 28 ft > 8 ft

20 ft + 8 ft = 28 ft > 8 ft

8 ft + 8 ft = 16 ft < 20 ft  

Here the sum of the two sides is less than 20 ft.

This is not satisfy the triangle inequality theorem.

Therefore, the triangle cannot be made.

1+4=5; 2+5=12; 3+6=21; 8+11=?
dybincka [34]
The pattern:
So it goes, 1, 2, 3, as the first number in each equation right.
Then it goes 4,5,6 as the second number in each equation.
<span>In other words, the first number + 3 = the second number
</span>
The sum or 3rd number is a zig zag pattern from the first and second numbers as shown below.
1 2 3 4 5 6   <span>7  </span>8   9 
4 <span>5 </span>6 7 8 9 10 11 <span>12
</span>
1 * 5 = 5, 2 * 6 = 12, 3 * 7 = 21 .... 8 * 12 = 96

<span>So the answer of </span><span>8+11=96</span>

The sum of two numbers is 21. Three times the larger is equal to four times the smaller.
MatroZZZ [7]
Answer x = 12 and y = 9
Step by step
First identify the equations
The sum of two numbers is 21
x + y = 21
Change to y intercept for ease of math
y = 21 - x ( call this equation a)
Three times the larger is equal to four times the smaller
3x = 4y (call this equation b)
Now substitute the value of y = 21 -x into equation b
3x = 4(21-x)
Distribute
3x = 84 - 4x
Now we want to isolate x by adding 4x to each side
3x + 4x = 84 -4x + 4x
Combine like terms
7x = 84
Now solve for x by dividing both sides by 7
x = 12

Now to find y
Using equation a from above
y = 21 - x
Substitute our x value of 12 into equation
y = 21 - 12
solve for y
y = 9
Now check your work
x = 12 and y = 9
The sum of two numbers is 21
12 + 9 = 21

Three times the larger (x) is equal to four times the smaller (y)
3x12 = 4x9
36 = 36

seven people are seated in a row. They all got up and sit down again in random order. What is the probability that the two origi
inna [77]

Answer:

P(A&B) = 0.4

Explanation:

Because it is a random process and there are no special constraints the probability for everybody is the same, the probability of choosing a particular site is 1/7, the person originally seated in chair number seven has 5/7 chance of not seating in chair number six and seven, the same goes for the person originally seated in chair number six; Because we want the probability of the two events happening, we want the probability of the intersection of the two events, and because the selection of a chair change the probability for the others (Dependents events) the probability P(A&B) = P(A) * P(B/A) where P(A) is 5/7 and the probability of choosing the right chair after the event A is 4/7, therefore, P(A&B) = 4/7*5/7 = 0.4.

If the events were independent the probability would be 0.51.
