Answer:

17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse triangle is the triangle in which one of the side is the longest. It contains an obtuse angle and the longest side is the side that is opposite to the vertex of the obtuse angle.

Let the three sides of the obtuse triangle be a, b and c respectively with c as the longest side. Let a = 9 inches and b = 14 inches.

Now we know that for an obtuse triangle,

$c^2 > a^2 +b^2$

$c^2 > (9)^2 +(14)^2$

$c^2 > 81 +196$

$c^2 > 277$

c > 16.64

Therefore the smallest possible whole number is 17 inches.

Your tutor asks you to record the time you spend using IT during the week. You have recorded this time below: Day Time Monday 0.
NikAS [45]

Let us convert all figures into decimals so that we can compare them easily.

Monday    0.3

Tuesday   15% = 0.15

Wednesday   1/6 = 0.1666

Thursday   0.2

Friday   1/8 = 0.125

Clearly, I spent the least amount of time on Friday using IT and the time is 0.125 or 1/8.

. A high school currently has a 30% dropout rate. They’ve been tasked to decrease that rate by 20%. Find the equivalent percenta
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent percentage point drop = 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage point change is the difference between the final and initial values.

The percentage change is the difference between the final and initial values

divided by the initial value

It is required to decrease the dropout rate from 30% to 20%

The point change = 20 - 30 = -10 (-ve change ⇒ decrease)

The percentage change = \frac{10}{30}*100 = 33.33_%%

So, the equivalent percentage point drop = <u>10%</u>

And the percentage change = <u>33.33%</u>

Write a power that has a value greater than 340 and less 345
valina [46]

For this case we must write a power between (340,345)

We chose 343.

We divide the number until we get an exact division:

\frac {343} {2} = 171.5\\\frac {343} {3} = 114.3\\\frac {343} {4} = 85.75\\\frac {343} {5} = 68.6\\\frac {343} {6} = 57.17\\\frac {343} {7} = 49\\

So we have:

7 ^ n = 343\\n = 3

So, the power is:

7 ^ 3 = 7 * 7 * 7 = 49 * 3 = 343

ANswer:

7 ^ 3 = 7 * 7 * 7 = 49 * 3 = 343
