Answer:

Sonji's wire measurements will be chosen

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided:

Don's wire measurements = 3 inches, 5 inches, and 12 inches

Margo's wire measurements = 6 inches, 8 inches, and 14 inches

Sonji's wire measurements = 12 inches, 8 inches, and 17 inches

Liam's wire measurements = 16 inches, 8 inches, and 27 inches.

Find:

The measure utilized to form a triangle

Computation:

Within a triangle, the combined lengths of the two shorter sides must exceed that of the longest side

a + b > c

Thus,[ [TAG_40]]

Don's wires = 3 inches + 5 inches < 12 inches

Margo's wires = 6 inches + 8 inches = 14 inches

Sonji's wires = 12 inches + 8 inches > 17 inches

Liam's wires = 16 inches + 8 inches < 27 inches.

Therefore,

Sonji's wire measurements will be selected

You can upgrade lighting at your factory to LED bulbs that cost $6.95 each and last an average of 5 years. It costs $3 in labor
Inessa [11169]
Each LED bulb, along with installation labor, is priced at
.. $6.95 +$3 = $9.95

For 100 bulbs over a span of 10 years, that equals (100*10) = 1000 bulb·years. At $9.95 per bulb, 5 bulb·years are obtained, and thus the projected total cost for 1000 bulb·years is
.. (1000 b·y)*($9.95/(5 b·y)) = $1990

In summary, for a decade, the installation and changes of 200 bulbs in 100 lamps amount to $1990. Therefore, the yearly cost is...
.. $1990/(10 yr) = $199/yr

The function f(x) is given by the set of ordered pairs. {(1,0), (–10,2), (0,6), (3,17), (–2,–1)} Which equation is true?
Leona [11195]
The linear equation can be expressed as y = -6x + 6. First, identify the slope, calculated with the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) which is equal to -6. Then, this value is substituted into the slope-intercept form y = mx + b. Finally, by inputting a coordinate, you can find the b value, resulting in the equation y = -6x + 6.

Tim has an after-school delivery service that he
lawyer [11277]
Tim operates a delivery service for local retailers, charging $1.25 for deliveries within 1.5 miles, $1.70 for distances from 1.5 miles to less than 1.75 miles, $2.15 for distances from 1.75 miles to less than 2 miles, and so on. If he increases his prices by 10%, how much will he charge for a 3 1/8 mile delivery? The cost for moving an extra 1/4 mile (between 1.75 miles and 1.5 miles) is $0.45 (calculated as $1.70 - $1.25). So, with a 10% hike, this charge becomes 1.1 × $0.45 = $0.495. Here would be Tim's adjusted rates: $1.25 for 1.5 miles, $1.745 for 1.5 to 1.75 miles, $2.24 for 1.75 to 2 miles, $2.735 for 2 to 2.25 miles, $3.23 for 2.25 to 2.5 miles, $3.725 for 2.5 to 2.75 miles, $4.22 for 2.75 to 3 miles, and $4.715 for 3 miles to 3.25 miles. Therefore, delivering a package 3 1/8 miles would cost $4.715.

Zina [11216]
1.) Les composés carbonés sont fondamentaux pour tous les éléments organiques, constituant les bases de tous les organismes vivants.

2.) La forme allotropique du carbone en diamant est la substance la plus dure connue.

3.) Le carbone peut établir des liaisons covalentes avec d'autres atomes de carbone, formant ainsi des chaînes continues, des branches et des boucles.
