Which set of three side lengths will not form a triangle? A 17, 12, 6 B 25, 38, 13 C 36, 14, 27 D 39, 44, 6

1 answer:

3 0

The two shortest sides have to add up to be bigger than the longest side.

A. 17,12,6 6+12= 18 18>17 <- this is a triangle

B. 25,13,38 25+13= 38 38=38 <- this is NOT a triangle

C. 14,27,36 14+27= 41 41>36 <- this is a triangle

D. 39,44,6= 39+6= 45 45>44 <- this is a triangle

The answer is B. 

I hope this helps!

Jamie has a bag containing purple, pink, yellow, and blue marbles. There are a total of 40 marbles in the bag. Jamie randomly se

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

1 pink marble

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jamie selected 10 times the pink marble in a total of 420 tries, we can assume that the proportion of pink marble in the total number of marbles is:

10 / 420 = 1/42

So to predict a good number of pink marbles in the total 40 marbles, we just need to multiply the 40 marbles by the proportion found above:

pink marble = 40 * (1/42) = 0.9524

As this number needs to be a whole number, a good assumption is that there is 1 pink marble in the 40 marbles.
