Firstly, the negative sign indictaes that this is a decay. Secondly, it is decaying by 31% (or 31 per 100) per annum, or 0.31, however, I dont think any of these answers are right. certainly C and D represent growth as they are 131% and 169% (1.31 and 1.69 respectively), B represents a decrease of 4% or 0.04, and A represents a decrease of 87% or 0.87, which as you can see does not correspond to to a decrease of -0.31or -31%, are you sure you have supplied all the information in the question(such as a starting point). If you have then I would refer to teacher/tutor for further examination.

Which of the following lists of three numbers could form the side lengths of a triangle? <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A.%20
yan [13]

Answer:

B. 122, 257, 137

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequality rule states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. If A, B and C are sides of a triangle then A + B > C, A + C > B, B + C > A

Testing for the options:

1) 10, 20, 30

10 + 20 (= 30) is not greater than 30. It cannot form a triangle

2) 122, 257, 137

122 + 137 (259) is greater than 257. It can form a triangle

3) 8.6, 12.2, 2.7

8.6 + 2.7 (11.3) is not greater than 12.2. It cannot form a triangle

4) 1/2, 1/5, 1/6

1/5 + 1/6 (11//30) is not greater than 1/2. It cannot form a triangle

The table below shows the different times it takes Paula to drive to work each day depending on the rate at which she drives.
faust18 [17]
Speed = distance / time
30 = d / 2.5
30 * 2.5 = d
75 = d

40 = d / 1.875
40 * 1.875 = d
75 = d

50 = d / 1.5
50 * 1.5 = d
75 = d

60 = d / 1.25
60 * 1.25 = d
75 = d

24 = 75 / time
time = 75/24
time = 3.125 hours

I need help in this qustion.each unit costs 14p.how much do 942 units costs?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

£131.88 or 13188 pence

Step-by-step explanation:

1 unit = 14p

942 units = 942 x 14

942 units = 13188p

£1 = 100p

13188 ÷ 100 = £131.88

Hope this helps!

Law of sines: How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3? No triangles can be formed. One t
Vinvika [58]

We have been given angle A as 75 degrees and sides a = 2 and b = 3.

Using Sine rule, we can set up:

\frac{Sin(A)}{a}=\frac{Sin(B)}{b}

Upon substituting the given values of angle A, and sides a and b, we get:

\frac{Sin(75)}{2}=\frac{Sin(B)}{3}

Upon solving this equation for B, we get:

\Rightarrow 3Sin(75)=2Sin(B)\\  \Rightarrow Sin(B)=\frac{3Sin(75)}{2}\\  \Rightarrow Sin(B)=1.4488\\

Since we know that value of Sine cannot be more than 1. Hence there are no values possible for B.

Hence, the triangle is not possible. Therefore, first choice is correct.
