Which of the following sets of numbers could represent the three sides of a triangle?

Answer:

5, 15, 19}

According to the triangle i

nequality theorem, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a ∆ must be greater than the length of the third side.

Thus, any of the given sets of numbers will represent the 3 sides of a ∆, if the following condition is satisfied:

a + b > c

b + c > a

a + c > b

Where a and b are the smaller side lengths, and c is the length of the longest side.

Let's check each set of numbers given to see if any satisfies this condition.

✍️Option 1: {6, 20, 28}

6 + 20 is not greater than 28

20 + 28 > 6

6 + 28 > 20

❌This set of numbers does not represent the sides of a ∆.

✍️Option 2: {4, 11, 15}

4 + 11 = 15

11 + 15 > 4

4 + 15 > 11

❌This set of numbers does not represent the sides of a ∆.

Option 3: {9, 19, 30}

9 + 19 is not greater than 30

19 + 30 > 9

9 + 30 > 19

❌This set of numbers does not represent the sides of a ∆

Option 4: {5, 15, 19}

5 + 15 > 19

15 + 19 > 5

5 + 19 > 15

✅This set of numbers does not represent the sides of a ∆

Only option 4, satisfied the condition stated earlier, therefore, based on the triangle inequality theorem, {5, 15, 19}, is the set of numbers that represents the 3 sides of a triangle.

HIGH POINT QUESTION
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Reflection in the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

If the point (x, y) of the shape is rotated 180° about the origin, it will be transformed into the point (-x, -y).

If the point (-x, -y) is reflected in the Y-axis, it will be transformed into the point (x, -y). This transformation is equivalent to the reflection of (x, y) in the x-axis.

Whats 27/4 in simplest form
Tanya [424]
\frac{27}{4} = \frac{24+3}{4} = \frac{24}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = 6+\frac{3}{4} = \boxed{6\frac{3}{4}}

What is the equation when y=5x+4 is reflected over the x-axis, y-axis & y=x?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

A) y=-5x-4

B) y=-5x+4

C) y=\frac{x-4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

y=5x+4

Let's write this in function notation. Thus:

y=f(x)=5x+4

A)

To flip a function over the x-axis, multiply the function by -1. Thus:

f(x)=5x+4\\-(f(x))=-(5x+4)

Simplify:

-f(x)=-5x-4

B) To flip a function over the y-axis, change the variable x to -x. Thus:

f(x)=5x+4\\f(-x)=5(-x)+4

Simplify:

f(-x)=-5x+4

C) A reflection over the line y=x is synonymous with finding the inverse of the function.

To find the inverse, switch x and f(x) and solve for f(x):

f(x)=5x+4

Switch:

x=5f^{-1}(x)+4

Subtract 4 from both sides:

x-4=5f^{-1}(x)

Divide both sides by 5:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-4}{5}

And we're done :)

Have to find volume and surface area but idk how
Setler [38]

Answer:

volume 1050 in^{3}

surface area 859 in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

volume is length times width times height (7*25*12)/2

surface area is area of all the sides added together

2(25*12)+(12*7)+ 2(\frac{7*25}{2})
