Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>

Let y and z be two of the side lengths of a triangle. The length of the third side x cannot be any number. It must satisfy all the following restrictions:

x + y > z

x + z > y

y + z > x

Combining the above inequalities, and provided y>z, the third size must satisfy:

y - z < x < y + z

The two side lengths given in the triangle of the figure are y=8.5, z=8.0, thus the possible values of x lie in the interval

8.5 - 8.0 < x < 8.5 + 8.0

0.5 < x < 15.5

One scientific team determened that the avrage thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 millimeters

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

As we can see the average for the thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 mm and if we want to round this number to the nearest tenth we just need to see the second decimal place and round to one decimal place.

This second decimal place for this number is 1 and this number is $\leq 5$ so then if we round to the nesrest tenth we will get:

$0.3 mm$

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following info in order to complete the qeustion:

Round the thickness of the shell to the nearest tenth.

0.3

0.5

0.92

This second decimal place for this number is 1 and this number is $\leq 5$ so then if we round to the nesrest tenth we will get:

$0.3 mm$

Answer:

equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse operations are used to solve simple algebraic equations to more difficult equations that involve exponents, logarithms, and trigonometry. Mathematically, inverse operations are opposite operations. Addition is the opposite of subtraction; division is the opposite of multiplication, and so on.

What is the ordered pair for -x-4y=-10

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Maybe I’m wrong but I tried... I added 4y to both sides and added -10 + 4y and got -6y and I bring down the -X and divided it by both sides and divided it to the -6y and my answer is -6y
