No nodcause it has to me in y=mx+b form. so just sub. 1 from each side
1. The "triangle inequality" states that any of the sides of the triangle, is larger than the difference of the other 2 sides (the larger minus the smaller), and it is smaller than the sum of them.
2. So the third side of this triangle must be larger than 14-8=6 (in) and smaller than 14+8=22 (in)
3. So let a denote the remaining side, then 6 < a < 22, which means a can be any number in between 6 and 22 inches.
Answer:
16. x = 3.0822, -3.0822
17. x = 1.6432, -1.6432
18. x = 1, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
16. log5[(4x²+2)/8] = 1
(4x²+2)/8 = 5¹
4x² + 2 = 40
4x² = 38
x² = 38/4
x² = 19/2
x = +/- sqrt(19/2)
x = 3.0822, -3.0822
17. log7[(2x²-4)(5)] = 1
10x² - 20 = 7¹
10x² = 27
x² = 2.7
x = +/- sqrt(2.7)
x = 1.6432, -1.6432
18. log5[(2x²+8)/2] = 1
x² + 4 = 5¹
x² = 1
x = +/-1
