What is the range of possible sizes for side x? the other two sides are 8.0 and 8.5

0.5 < x < 16.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two sides of triangle: 8.0 units and 8.5 units

Measure of third side = x

According to the triangle's inequality,

If x is the third side, then

x < 8+8.5   [Using (i)]

i.e. x< 16.5  

Also, x > 8.5-8   [Using (ii)]

i.e. x> 0.5

Hence, Range of possible sizes for side x would be 0.5 < x < 16.5.

y = 0.77(x)
