Lengths of segments

Answer:

Triangles:

10 m, 21 m, 29 m

10 m, 29 m, 37 m

Not triangles:

10 m, 14 m, 29 m

10 m, 29 m, 40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle to exist, the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than that of the third side.

Let us check each of the options.

Option 1: 10 m, 14 m, 29 m

The sum of lengths 10 m and 14 m must be greater than 29 m.

10 + 14 = 24 < 29

So, this is not a triangle.

Option 2: 10 m, 21 m, 29 m

10 + 21 = 31 > 29

21 + 29 = 50 > 10

29 + 10 = 39 > 21

Therefore, it is a triangle.

Option 3: 10 m, 29 m, 37 m

10 + 29 = 39 > 37

29 + 37 = 66 > 10

37 + 10 = 47 > 29

Therefore, it is a triangle.

Option 4: 10 m, 29 m, 40 m

10 + 29 =39 < 40

So, this is not a triangle.

Is a triangle with the given side lengths of 15cm, 17cm, and 19cm a right triangle?
Alexandra [31]
Lets see!
We need to use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to check.
So..
15^2+ 17^2 = 19^2
225+ 289= 361
Hm 225 and 289 do NOT equal 361 therefore it is NOT a right triangle.

What is the value of the discriminant, b2 − 4ac, for the quadratic equation 0 = x2 − 4x + 5, and what does it mean about the num
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
So discriminant gives us 3 possibilites connected with result of the equation b^2-4ac. If it is bigger than zero, there are 2 solutions, if answer is exactly 0, then there is one answer and if the number is lower than 0, there are no solutions.

Discriminant of your quadratic equation is (-4)^2-4*1*5=16-20=-4, so there are no solutions.

Based on its degree, what kind of polynomial is this?<br> h(x)=4x^4+2x-5
MissTica
To estimate the degree of a polynomial, you just have to take a look at the highest power in the expression. Since here, that is number 4, then it means that this polynomial is a fourth degree polynomial, or quartic polynomial, if you want to sound smart. :)

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Either try all the numbers and see which ones work or do the following.

Times both sides by 2x-5.

3=x(2x-5)=2x^2-5x

Rearrange and solve the quadratic. I will factorise.

2x^2-5x-3=0

(2x+1)(x-3)=0

so x = -1/2 or 3
