Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
Answer:
48 or 47
Step-by-step explanation:
858/18 = 47.6
(-4,0) (-3,3) (-1,0) (0,-3) (1,-5) (3,0)
So, domain numbers are -4, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3
Range are 0, 3, -3,-5,
Just take the ordered pairs and the Xs is the domain and the Ys are the range
Answer:
B) 5 5/8in x 9in is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
First add the bottom numbers together (9+6+9) which gives you 24. Then multiply both sides by 3/8 (15 x 3/8= 5 <u>5/8</u>) and (24 x 3/8= <u>9</u>) making your answer 5 5/8 x 9
The area of the deck is :
A ( deck ) = 8 * 27.63 = 221.04 ft²
The area of the sheet of wood:
A ( sheet ) = 4 * 8 = 32 ft²
221.04 : 32 = 6.9 ≈ 7 ( we need a whole number )
Answer: He should buy 7 sheets of wood to cover the surface of the deck.
