A triangle has two side lenths of 1 and 16 what is the largest possible whole-number length of the third side?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of two sides of the triangle = 1 and 16 ;

The largest possible whole-number length of the third side would be ;

Recall from triangle inequality theorem; the length of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side. Therefore. The largest possible whole number value the third side could have is:

Assume the third side is the largest :

Then, the third side must be less than the sum of the other two sides ;

Third side < (16 + 1)

Third side < 17

Therefore, the closest whole number lesser than the sum of the other two sides is (17 - 1) = 16

Help me please I need the answer ASAP
ozzi

a

10.95x + 2.50, but for eight books so 10.95 x 8 + 2.50 = 90.10

b

12.50x + 4.50, but for six books so 12.50 x 6 + 4.50 = 79.50

c

To do this, we can set them both equal to each other and if x is a whole number of books, then they do pay the same amount. If x is a decimal, then they don't pay the same amount.

10.95x + 2.50 = 12.50x + 4.50

2.50 - 4.50 = 12.50x - 10.95x

-2 = 1.55x

This can never be a whole number, so therefore members and non-members can never pay the same amount for an order of x books.

An advertising campaign is canceled before launch with probability 0.10, in which case the marketing company is fired with proba
Feliz [49]

Answer:

0.2231 (22.31%)

Step-by-step explanation:

defining the event F = the marketing company is fired, then the probability of being fired is:

P(F)= probability that the advertising campaign is cancelled before lunch * probability that marking department is fired given that the advertising campaign was cancelled before lunch + probability that the advertising campaign is launched but cancelled early  * probability that marking department is fired given that the advertising campaign is launched but cancelled early        ....   (for all the 4 posible scenarios where the marketing department is fired)

thus

P(F) =0.10 * 0.74 + 0.18 * 0.43 + 0.43 * 0.16 + 0.29*0.01 = 0.2231 (22.31%)

then the probability that the marketing department is fired is  0.2231 (22.31%)

I really need help<br> Solve for x

\huge\underline{\overline{\mid{\bold{\red{ANSWER}}\mid}}}

1. Both are corresponding angles, hence they both are equal, so,

44x + 2 = 45x \\  =  > 2 = 45x - 44x \\  =  > 2 = x \\  =  > x = 2

Ans. C) 2

2. They both are in interior corressponding, hence their sum is equal to 180°, so,

10x + 6 + 104 = 180 \\  =  > 10x + 110 = 180 \\  =  > 10x = 180 - 110 \\  =  > 10x = 70 \\  =  > x =  \frac{70}{10}  \\  =  > x = 7

Ans. D) 7

3. They both are in interior corressponding, hence their sum is equal to 180°, so,

x + 75 + x + 125 = 180 \\  =  > 2x + 200 = 180 \\  =  > 2x = 180 - 200 \\  =  > 2 x =  - 20 \\  =  > x =  \frac{ - 20}{2}  \\  =  >  x =  - 10

Ans. A) -10

4. Both are corresponding angles, hence they both are equal, so,

12x + 3 = 11x + 9 \\  =  > 12x - 11x = 9 - 3 \\  =  > x = 6

Ans. A) 6
