The most efficient way of finding the answer to this question is first reducing 10-24-26 and comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

First, reduce 10-24-26 by dividing it by the GCF (greatest common factor). 

10-24-26 divided by its GCF, 2, is:  5-12-13

Now comparing it with the first 5 combinations for right-angled triangles:

1)   3-4-5
2)  5-12-13
3)  7-24-25
4)  8-15-17
5)  20-21-29

As you can see, number 2 is the same as our reduced example. Therefore, we know that 10-24-26 is a right triangle. 

Hope this helps!

Answer: 
The system is composed of these two inequalities combined
y <= -x+4
y >= (1/3)x

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

The solid line has the boundary equation y = -x+4
This line goes through (0,4) and (4,0). Using the slope formula, we find that m = -1. Plugging m = -1 and (x,y) = (0,4) into y = mx+b leads to y = -x+4

The shading is below the solid line so we change the equal sign to a "less than or equal to" sign, which leads us to y <= -x+4

That takes care of the first inequality. We must use "or equal to" as part of the inequality to ensure the boundary is solid

------------

The second inequality is y > (1/3)x as the boundary line is y = (1/3)x. This line goes through (0,0) and (3,1). The slope is 1/3 and y intercept is 0

The boundary is a dashed line. This means we don't have "or equal to" as part of the inequality

What are the truck ID’s of trucks that have carried small shipments. Small shipments are defined as those that weigh less than 8
Ivanshal [37]

Table for the question is attached in the picture below :

Answer:

SELECT distinct(TRUCK_ID), WEIGHT from SHIPMENT where WEIGHT < 800 ;

Step-by-step explanation:

The Structured query language (SQL) defined above, returns only the TRUCK_ID and Weight column from the shipment table as they are the only two columns listed after the select keyword. The condition is added using the WHERE keyword on the weight table, this filters the result returned to include only rows where the weight value is less than 800. The distinct keyword used alongside the TRUCK_ID column ensures that a certian TRUCK_ID value isn't returned more than once (Hence, it is used to avoid duplicates).
