A triangle has two sides of length 4 and 15. What is the smallest possible whole-number length for the third side

Mathematics

Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The smallest whole number length is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of any two sides of any triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

In this case, the two smallest sides of the triangle must be greater than the third side to satisfy the statement above.

Let "x" = the length of the third side.

Our two smaller sides are "x" and "4", and their sum must be greater than 15.

x + 4 > 15

x > 15 - 4

x > 11

Small library contains 700 novels. how many ways can You check out three novels
schepotkina [342]

The first book you select can be any one of 700.

. . . For each of those ...

The second book can be any one of the other 699.

. . . For each of those ...

The third book can be any one of the remining 698.

The total number of ways to gather three books from the shelves into your hands is  (700 · 699 · 698)  =  <em>341,531,400 ways</em> .

<em>BUT ...</em>

When you bring three books to the check-out counter, Marian the Librarian doesn't know in which order you took them down off the shelves.  You could have gathered the same three books in (3 · 2 · 1) = 6 different ways.

So, even though there are 341,531,400 ways to<em> </em>gather up three books, there are only (341,531,400 / 6) = 56,921,900 different GROUPS of three books that you can choose to take home.

The volume of a sphere:
V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3
r - the radius

The diameter is twice the radius.
d=36 \ in \\&#10;r=\frac{36}{2} \ in = 18 \ in \\ \\&#10;V=\frac{4}{3} \pi \times 18^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi \times 5832=\frac{23328}{3} \pi=7776\pi \ [in^3]

The exact volume of the sphere is 7776π in³.

$0.70/$2.00 = 0.35

0.35 × 100 = 35%
