Begin solving like you normally would. Add 2.25 to both sides and subtract 9x from both sides to try getting all x values on one side. However, you will find that after subtracting 9x from both sides, all x values go away, and you end with -2.25=1.6. This is not true (-2.25 is not 1.6), so the answer is no solution. There is no value of x which satisfies that equation.
Whole
so think of it as a interger
8*a=32
32:8=a
4=a
4+26=b
30=b
Answer:
Therefore, the possible lengths (in whole inches) for the third side is
9 inches < x < 45 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
For the above question, we have a rule, the sum of the length of any two sides of the triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.
Hence:
She has two sides of length 18 inches and 27 inches
Let the third side = x
Hence:
a) 18 + 27 > x
45 > x
b) 18 + x > 27
x > 27 - 18
x > 9
Therefore, the possible lengths (in whole inches) for the third side is
9 inches < x < 45 inches
