Answer:

The sides are

6

inches,

8

inches and

10

inches

Explanation:

I'd suggest that the question should read 'The perimeter of a triangle is 24 inches. The longest side is 4 inches longer than the shortest side, and the shortest side is three-fourths the length of the middle side. How do you find the length of each side of the triangle?'

In this case the question can be answered. If

x

is the length of the middle side, then the shortest side is 3/4x and the longest side is 3/4x+4

x+3/4x+3/4x+4=24

10/4x=20

x=8

Then the shortest side is 6and the longest side is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x)=x-3, which inequality can be used to find the domain of f(x)?
Scrat [10]

Given that,

f(x) = \sqrt{x-3}

To find,

The domain of f(x).

Solution,

We have, f(x) = \sqrt{x-3}

To find domain,

The term under the square root must be positive or null as follows :

x-3\ge 0

Adding 3 both sides

x-3+3\ge 0+3\\\\x\ge 3

So, the domain is x-3>0 .

BabaBlast [244]

(by 0 i mean the "theta" sign)

cot0 x sec0 = csc0

(cos0/sin0) x (1/cos0) = 1/sin0

1/sin0 = 1/sin

x = 8
8 students in the smaller group 
4 + 2(8) = 20 students in the larger group
