Answer: she begin with 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beggining she had A books.

She sold half of that, so now she has A/2 books.

She bought 9, so now she has A/2 + 9 books,

And we know that A/2 + 9 = 11 books

So A/2 = 11 - 9 = 3

A = 2*3 = 6

So she started with 6 books

Answer:

She began with 4 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original number of Jessi Comic books be x

When She sold half of the comic books, she has ( x - x/2) = x/2 left

When she bought 9 more, she has 11 in total. That is, x/2 + 9 = 11

x/2 = 11 - 9

x/2 = 2

x = 2 * 2

x = 4

She began with 4 books

Two sides of a triangle are 12cm and 8cm. Complete the inequality to show the possible lengths for the third side. If the third
Nookie1986 [14]

The inequalities that represents the third side of the triangle is  x ≥ 4 or x ≤ 20

How to find the third side of a triangle?

The triangle inequality theorem states that that the sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than or equal to the third side.

Therefore, the two sides of the triangle are 12 cm and 8 cm.

A triangle with sides a, b and x follows the principle below;

a + b ≥ x.

Therefore,

let

x = third sides

12 + 8 ≥ x

20 ≥ x

x + 8 ≥ 12

x ≥ 4

x + 12 ≥ 8

Therefore, the third third should be greater than or equals to 4 or less than or equals to 20

x ≥ 4 or x ≤ 20
