Answer:

a triangle with the side measurements of 2, 3, and 5 inches

a triangle with the side measurements of 7, 8, and 16 inches

a triangle with the side measurements of 4, 4, and 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon shape with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as isosceles triangle, scalene triangle, equilateral triangle and right angle triangle.

The triangle inequality theorem states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side.

For a triangle with the side measurements of 3, 4, and 6 inches:

3 + 4 > 6. This can be a triangle

For a triangle with the side measurements of 2, 3, and 5 inches:

2 + 3 is not greater than 5, hence it cannot be a triangle

For a triangle with the side measurements of 3, 3, and 4 inches:

3 + 3 > 4. This can be a triangle

For a triangle with the side measurements of 5, 5, and 5 inches

5 + 5 > 5. This can be a triangle

For a triangle with the side measurements of 4, 4, and 8 inches:

4 + 4 is not greater than 8, hence it cannot be a triangle

For a triangle with the side measurements of 7, 8, and 16 inches:

7 + 8 is not greater than 16, hence it cannot be a triangle

Solve the following equation by completing the square. 3x^2-3x-5=13
mr Goodwill [35]

we'll start off by grouping some

\bf 3x^2-3x-5=13\implies (3x^2-3x)-5=13\implies 3(x^2-x)-5=13 \\\\\\ 3(x^2-x)=18\implies (x^2-x)=\cfrac{18}{3}\implies (x^2-x)=6\implies (x^2-x+~?^2)=6

so we have a missing guy at the end in order to get the a perfect square trinomial from that group, hmmm, what is it anyway?

well, let's recall that a perfect square trinomial is

\bf \qquad \textit{perfect square trinomial} \\\\ (a\pm b)^2\implies a^2\pm \stackrel{\stackrel{\text{\small 2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small a}^2}\cdot \sqrt{\textit{\small b}^2}}{\downarrow }}{2ab} + b^2

so we know that the middle term in the trinomial, is really 2 times the other two without the exponent, well, in our case, the middle term is just "x", well is really -x, but we'll add the minus later, we only use the positive coefficient and variable, so we'll use "x" to find the last term.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{2(x)(?)}=\stackrel{\textit{middle term}}{x}\implies ?=\cfrac{x}{2x}\implies ?=\cfrac{1}{2}

so, there's our fellow, however, let's recall that all we're doing is borrowing from our very good friend Mr Zero, 0, so if we add (1/2)², we also have to subtract (1/2)²

\bf \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)=6\implies \left( x^2 -x +\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2 \right)-\left[ \cfrac{1}{2} \right]^2=6 \\\\\\ \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=6+\cfrac{1}{4}\implies \left(x-\cfrac{1}{2} \right)^2=\cfrac{25}{4}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\cfrac{25}{4}} \\\\\\ x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies x-\cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{5}{2}+\cfrac{1}{2}\implies x=\cfrac{6}{2}\implies \boxed{x=3}

Use the graph for problems 14 and 15<br><br>​
Charra [1.4K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14.  C

  15.  C

Step-by-step explanation:

14. The function is entirely in quadrants I and II, so the leading coefficient is positive. This eliminates choices A and B.

The horizontal asymptote is 0, not -1, eliminating choice D.

The curve is best described by the equation of choice C.

__

15. The domain and range of an unadulterated exponential function are ...

  domain: all real numbers; range: y > 0 . . . . matches choice C
