Answer:

  • C. x > 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the triangle inequality theorem, any side length is less than the sum of the other two:</u>

  • x < 2x + 1 + x + 4 ⇒ x < 3x + 5 ⇒ 2x > - 5 ⇒ x > - 2.5
  • 2x + 1 < x + x + 4 ⇒ 2x + 1 < 2x + 4 ⇒ 1 < 4, any value of x
  • x + 4 < x + 2x + 1 ⇒ x + 4 < 3x + 1 ⇒ 2x > 3 ⇒ x > 3/2

<u>Common solution of the three inequalities above is:</u>

  • x > 3/2

Correct choice is C

Y−3=2(x+1) solve this
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Y-3 = 2(x+1)

open the brackets

Y = 2x+5..... this is the answer when solving for Y

if were solving for x:

Y-3 = 2x+5

Y-8 = 2x

\frac{y}{2} -4 = x

The probability that a professional baseball player will get a hit is 1/3. Calculate the exact probability that he will get at l
Evgesh-ka [11]
It is given here that there is 1/3 probability of professional baseball player will get a hit. Hence if  at least three hits are gained out of 5 attempts, the calculation goes:  5C3* (1/3)^3*(2/3)^2 + 5C4* (1/3)^4*(2/3)^1 +5C5 *<span>(1/3)^5*(2/3)^0 equal to 0.21. </span>

The area of a rectangular gymnasium is (5x+5x) square feet. If it is 5x feet wide, what is the length, in feet?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L x W      gym area is (5x + 5x) ft²      if   W = 5x      Find the L

Area = L x W       divide both sides by W

Area/W  = (L x W) / W

Area/W  =  L  =  Area/W

    L = Area/W

       =  (5x + 5x) / (5x)

       =  5x( 1 + 1) / 5x

       =  5x(2) / 5x                      the 5x's cancel each other  5x/5x = 1

       =   2 ft          I got 2.  I suspect the 12 was a typo and should have been 2
