Answer:
The correct option is:
The student should have switched the direction of the inequality sign to get –5> x for a final answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The students has made a mistake in the 3rd step.
We know that when we multiply or divide any negative number on both sides of the inequality, the sign of inequality reverse its direction.
In step 3 the student divided 25 by -5 but did not switch direction of the inequality sign.
Therefore the correct option is: The student should have switched the direction of the inequality sign to get –5> x for a final answer....
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are to show by Pythagoras that the square will fit inside the circle without touching the edge of the circle , this means that we must find the value of the length of the diagonal of the square using Pythagoras.
For the square to fit in without touching the edge of the circle , this means that the diagonal of the square must be less than the diameter of the circle.
Length of the square is 5cm.
Recall Pythagoras theorem: it states that
the square on the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is equal in area to the sum of the squares on the other two sides
= +
= 25 + 25
= 50
Take the square root of both sides , that is
D =
D = X , since 50 = 25 x 2
D = 5
D ≈ 7.07
Answer:
3 < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3 < 5
We can write this inequality, because three is less than five, and < means less than.
