Answer:
The smallest possible value for x is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u>Triangle Inequality Theorem</u>. states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side
so
The value of x must be greater than 
so
If x must be a whole number
therefore
The smallest possible value for x is
Answer:
The answer is 68 :D
Step-by-step explanation:
(Just read the whole comment ;P)
The correct answer is 7.2
We can subtract 2 from 4, which is 2.
They're both in the same decimal place, so that is why they are affecting each-other.
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac, where a, b and c come from the form of the quadratic equation as ax^2 + bx + c
Discriminant = (4)^2 - 4(1)(5)
= 16 - 20
= -4
-4 < 0, therefor there are no roots
(If the discriminant = 0, then there is one root
If the discriminant > 0, there are two roots, and if it is a perfect square (eg. 4, 9, 16, etc.) then there are two rational roots
If the discriminant < 0, there are no roots)
