Answer:

16 mugs

Step-by-step explanation:

Total clay bought = 45 lbs

Clay used for sculpture = 15.8 lbs

Clay left over = 17.68 lbs

Clay used for each mug = 0.72 lbs

Number of mug = x

Total clay bought = Clay used for sculpture + Clay left over + (Clay used for each mug * Number of mug)

45 = 15.8 + 17.68 + (0.72 * x)

45 = 33.48 + 0.72x

45 - 33.48 = 0.72x

11.52 = 0.72x

x = 11.52/0.72

x = 16

Number of mug = x = 16 mugs

Finds the height of a triangle with a base of 35 ft and an area of 262.5 ft2
ddd [48]

The answer to this is that the height is equal to 15 feet. This is because to find the area of a triangle the equation is A=1/2bh. So what you have to do is do the opposite. Input the numbers into the equation 262.5= 1/2(35)h. Then multply 1/2 by 35 to get 17.5h. Next you divide each side by 17.5 and you get 15.

Determine if the side lengths could form a triangle. Use an inequality to prove your answer.
podryga [215]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) no

  b) yes

  c) maybe (no)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two versions of the triangle inequality. One requires ...

  a + b > c

for any triple of side measures a, b, c.

The other allows ...

  a + b ≥ c

which admits "triangles" that have zero height and look like line segments.

Most questions asking "do these lengths form a triangle" are concerned with the "greater than" case, and disallow the "or equal to" case.

__

a)

  16+21=37\ngtr39\qquad\text{not a triangle}

b)

  27+34=61>58\qquad\text{could be a triangle}

c)

  9+29=38\ge38\qquad\text{could be a triangle if "equal to" is allowed}

If f(x) = x2 and g(x) = x + 6, find g(f(0)).
Pachacha [2.7K]
Hi friend,

f(x) = x²
g(x) = x+6

f(0) = 0² =0

g ( f(0) ) = f(0) +6
= 0+6 = 6

Hope this helps you!
