Answer:

6 ft < L₃ < 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question given above, we must bear in mind that:

The sum of the length of two sides of any triangle is always greater than the 3rd length i.e

L₁ + L₂ > L₃

With the above information in mind, we can obtain the answer to the question given above as follow:

Length 1 (L₁) = 12 feet

Length 2 (L₂) = 18 feet

Length 3 (L₃) =..?

Case 1:

L₁ + L₂ > L₃

12 + 18 > L₃

30 > L₃

L₃ < 30 feet

Case 2:

L₁ + L₃ > L₂

12 + L₃ > 18

Collect like terms

L₃ > 18 – 12

L₃ > 6 feet

Thus,

6 feet < L₃

Combining case 1 and 2,we obtained:

6 ft < L₃ < 30 ft

Therefore, the possible Lenght of the 3rd side is : 6 ft < L₃ < 30 ft

Answer these questions please: You don't need to plot the point just answer B &amp; C. Also every single coordinate plane is lik
Nady [450]

Step-by-step explanation:

When moving left, subtract from the x-coordinate and when moving right, add in the x-coordinate. When moving down, subtract from the y-coordinate and when moving up, add in the y-coordinate.

1) Given point = (0, 0). 3 units right and 4 units down means (0+3, 0-4) = (3, -4).

2) Given point = (5, 2). 4 units left and 2 units down means (5-4, 2-2) = (1, 0).

3) Given point = (-6, -1). 8 units right and 5 units up means (-6+8, -1+5) = (2, 4).

4) In Quadrant II, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive. So taking R = (-6,6). 2 units right and 6 units down means (-6+2, 6-6) = (-4, 0).

5) In Quadrant IV, the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative. So taking R = (6,-6). 7 units left and 4 units up means (6-7, -6+4) = (-1, -2).

Is there's a multiple of 1/6 between 3/6 and 4/6?
irina [24]
Lets find that out writing equations and solving them, a multiple of 1/6 is something like this (1/6)x, so we have
(1/6)x > 3/6
and
<span>(1/6)y < 4/6
</span>lets solve both equations:
<span>(1/6)x > 3/6
</span>x > 6(3/6)
x > 3

<span>(1/6)y < 4/6
</span>y < 6(4/6)
y < 4

So the number must be between 3 and 4, which is obvious, lets try with 3.5 then, that is 3 5/10 or 35/10 = 7/2 in fractional form, and lets try it out:
(1/6)(7/2) = 7/12
finally we compare with the original fractions:
1/6 < 7/12
2/12 < 7/12
So, it comply with being greater than 1/6, now lets compare with 4/6
7/12 < 4/6
<span>7/12 < 8/12
</span>therefore is also smaller than 4/6 and hence 7/12 is a multiple of 1/6 between 3/6 and 4/6

Which of the following multiplication problems would result in a negative product?
Alex_Xolod [135]
(-3)(-4)(4) = 48
(-3)(-4)(-4) = -48
(3)(4)(-4) = -48
(3)(-4)(-4) = 48

That means answers B and C will give you a negative answer!
