First write the equation 8 + 12 > x because according to the triangle property, the sum of any 2 sides have to be greater than the third side. This means that the difference of any two sides should be smaller than the third side.
So, the answer would be 4 < x < 20.
Answer:
≈ 397 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
Let h represent the height of the balloon above ground, then
h² + 50² = 400², that is
h² + 2500 = 160000 ( subtract 2500 from both sides )
h² = 157500 ( take the square root of both sides )
h ≈ 397 m ( to the nearest metre )
That whole thing is a right angle, which is 90 degrees. put measure 1 and 2 and equal it to 90 and solve. 5x+x-12=90. combine like terms and solve for x. 6x-12=90. 6x=90+12. 6x= 102. x=17
The price after increase would be $598.80
