Answer:

The answer to your question a)   Perimeter = 12x² - 6                                                                             b)  Perimeter = 21 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

side 1 = 4x² - 3

side 2 = 4x² - 2

side 3 = 4x² - 1

Process

1.- Calculate the perimeter of a triangle

   Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3

-Substitution

   Perimeter = (4x² - 3) + (4x² - 2) + (4x² - 1)

-Simplification

   Perimeter = 4x² - 3 + 4x² - 2 + 4x² - 1

   Perimeter = 12x² - 6

2.- Find the perimeter when x = 1.5

   Perimeter = 12(1.5)² - 6

-Simplification

   Perimeter = 12(2.25) - 6

   Perimeter = 27 - 6

-Result

   Perimeter = 21 in

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the perimeter of a triangle is expressed as

Perimeter = a + b + c

Where a, b and c are the lengths of each side of the triangle.

The side lengths of the triangular straw are 4x² - 3 inches, 4x² -2 inches, and 4x² - 1 inches. The expression for the perimeter is

4x² - 3 + 4x² -2 + 4x² - 1

= 4x² + 4x² + 4x² - 3 - 2 - 1

= 12x² - 6

When x = 1.5, then

Perimeter = 12(1.5)² - 6

Perimeter = 21 inches

Rama09 [41]
<span>This is a simple subtraction question. To find the answer, you simple need to subtract 15 from 104. This equals 89, so there were 89 4th graders at school that day in total. In the instance you're unsure that a subtraction equation is right, you can also add your answers back together to double check, so 89 + 15 = 104.</span>

Rounded 6,289,002 to the nearest 1,000,000
kotegsom [21]
<span>6,289,002 rounded to the nearest 1,000,000 is 6,000,000. This is because the number in the hundred thousands column, the one to the right of the first digit, is less than five, so it gets rounded down.</span>

Which of the following statements must be true about this diagram? Check all that apply.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Options (D), (E) and (F) are the correct options.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

1). Angle 4 is the exterior angle of the given triangle having interior angles 1, 2 and 3.

Therefore, by the property of exterior angle,

∠4 = ∠1 + ∠2

2). Since ∠4 = ∠1 + ∠2,

Therefore, ∠4 will be greater than ∠1

 Similarly, ∠4 will be greater than ∠2

Therefore, Options (D), (E) and (F) are the correct options.
