Stick 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]L = 1.05m[/tex] --- Shelf length

Missing information from the question are:

[tex]Stick\ 1 = 1.4m[/tex]

[tex]Stick\ 2 = 1.041m[/tex]

[tex]Stick\ 3 = 1.14m[/tex]

[tex]Stick\ 4 = 1.104m[/tex]

Required

Which stick best fits the shelf?

The following observations are to be noted:

  • The length of stick 1 of 1.4m is greater than the length of the shelf
  • The length of stick 3 of 1.14m is greater than the length of the shelf
  • The length of stick 4 of 1.104m is greater than the length of the shelf

  • Only stick 2 (of length 1.041m) has a smaller length when compared to the length of the shelf.

Hence, Justin should choose stick 2
