Full question:

The longest side of an obtuse triangle measures 20 cm. The two shorter sides measure x cm and 3x cm. Rounded to the nearest tenth, what is the greatest possible value of x?

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: an obtuse triangle is a triangles in which one of the interior angles is more than 90 degrees. Sum of angles in triangle =180 degrees

The longest side of a triangle here is the hypotenuse. To find the unknown side of a triangle, we use the Pythagorean theorem. We already know the hypotenuse hence:

20= √(x²+3x²)

20=4x

x=20/4=5

x= 5

A certain cylindrical tank holds 20,000 gallons of water which can be drained from the bottom of the tank in 20 minutes the volu
zalisa [80]
Given that the volume of water remaining in the tank after t minutes is given by the function

V(t)=20,000\left(1- \frac{t}{20} \right)^2

where V is in gallons, 0 ≤ t ≤ 20 is in minutes, and t = 0 represents the instant the tank starts draining.

The rate at which water is draining four and a half minutes after it begins is given by

\left.
 \frac{dV}{dt} \right|_{t=4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{9}{2} 
}=\left[40,000\left(1- \frac{t}{20} \right)\left(- \frac{1}{20} 
\right)\right]_{t= \frac{9}{2} } \\  \\ =\left[-2,000\left(1- 
\frac{t}{20} \right)\right]_{t= \frac{9}{2} }=-2,000\left(1- 
\frac{4.5}{20} \right) \\  \\ =-2,000(1-0.225)=-2,000(0.775)=-1,550\, 
gallons\ per\ minute

Therefore, the water is draining at a rate of 1,550 gallons per minute four ans a half minutes after it begins.

Answer option E is the correct answer.
