A triangle has two sides of lengths 6 and 9. What value could the length of the third side be?

1 answer:

4 0

The sum of the lengths of two sides of a triangle must always be less than or equal to the third side. So, if we let the third side be x, we have:

$\begin{cases}6+x\geq9\\x+9\geq6\\6+9\geq x\end{cases} \iff \begin{cases}x\geq3\\x\geq -3\\x\leq 15\end{cases} \iff \begin{cases}x\geq3\\x\leq 15\end{cases}$

What is the answer to 5+5(x+4)≤20?

Nata [24]

$5+5\left( x+4 \right) \le 20\\ \\ 5\left\{ 1+\left( x+4 \right) \right\} \le 20\\ \\ \frac { 1 }{ 5 } \cdot 5\left\{ 1+\left( x+4 \right) \right\} \le 20\cdot \frac { 1 }{ 5 }$

$\ \\ 1+\left( x+4 \right) \le 4\\ \\ 1+x+4\le 4\\ \\ x+5\le 4\\ \\ x\le 4-5\\ \\ x\le -1$

Value of the expression will be 7

Explanation

Given value of the variables are : $p= \frac{1}{2}$ and $q=7$

Given expression: $8p+3q-18$

So, plugging the values of $p$ and $q$ into the above expression, we will get...

$8p+3q-18\\ \\ = 8(\frac{1}{2})+3(7)-18\\ \\ =4 + 21-18\\ \\ =25-18\\ \\ =7$

So, the value of the expression will be 7.

Come on now, check your book on the "product to sum" identities

$\bf cos({{ \alpha}})sin({{ \beta}})=\cfrac{1}{2}[sin({{ \alpha}}+{{ \beta}})\quad -\quad sin({{ \alpha}}-{{ \beta}})]$
