Answer:

C 24

D 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the choices offered:

5 and 7 will not form a triangle* with any of the other lengths

7 and 12 will not form a triangle with any of the other (longer) lengths

7 and 24 will form a triangle with the other possibilities, 25 and 29. (needs further consideration)

7 and 25 will not form a right triangle with 29, because a right triangle cannot have 3 odd-length sides.

Further consideration

7^2 +24^2 = 49 +576 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . checking Pythagorean theorem

The side measures 7, 24, 25 will form a right triangle.

_____

* A triangle can be formed from three segments only if the sum of the shortest two exceeds the length of the longest one.

What is the difference of the polynomials? (–2x3y2 + 4x2y3 – 3xy4) – (6x4y – 5x2y3 – y5)

ANEK [815]

For the answer to the question above, I'll provide my solutions to my answers for the problem below.

(–2x3y2 + 4x2y3 – 3xy4) – (6x4y – 5x2y3 – y5)

(−2x3)(y2)+4x2y3+−3xy4+−1(6x4y)+−1(−5x2y3)+−1(−y5)

(−2x3)(y2)+4x2y3+−3xy4+−6x4y+5x2y3+y5

−2x3y2+4x2y3+−3xy4+−6x4y+5x2y3+y5

−2x3y2+4x2y3+−3xy4+−6x4y+5x2y3+y5

(−6x4y)+(−2x3y2)+(4x2y3+5x2y3)+(−3xy4)+(y5)

−6x4y+−2x3y2+9x2y3+−3xy4+y5
So the answer is,
= −6x4y−2x3y2+9x2y3−3xy4+y5

I hope this helps

How to evaluate the expression

jasenka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$4^{5}$ can be expressed as $2^{(2)(5)}$ = $2^{10}$

Similarly $4^{8}$ can be expressed as $2^{(2)(8)}$ = $2^{16}$

Numerator becomes:

$2^{10}$ · $-2^{9}$ = $-2^{19}$

Denominator becomes:

$2^{16}$ · $-2^{3}$ = $-2^{19}$

Since numerator = Denominator,

Answer = 1

A bouncy ball is dropped such that the height of its first bounce is 5.5 feet and each successive bounce is 64% of the previous

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

0.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be convenient to let a spreadsheet compute the values for you. Here, we have written an explicit formula for the height of the n-th bounce:

h = 5.5×0.64^(n-1)

We have written the formula this way because we are given the height of the first bounce, not the starting height. Each bounce multiplies the height by a factor of 0.64. Then the 7th bounce will have a height of ...

h = 5.5×0.64^6 ≈ 0.378 ≈ 0.4 . . . . feet
