All of these sets meet the requirements of the triangle inequality. The sum of any two numbers in the set is greater than the third one. (You really only need to check that the sum of the smallest two is greater than the largest.)
It can help to resolve the numbers that are only indicated as to value.
√13 ≈ 3.606
2√10 ≈ 6.325
_____
Your comparisons can be ...
2 + 3 = 5 > 3.606 . . . is a triangle
5 + 5 = 10 > 6.325 . . . . . . is a triangle
5 + 12 = 17 > 15 . . . . . . . . is a triangle
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 1) + 8 = 24
Subtract 8 from each side
4(x + 1) + 8-8 = 24-8
4(x + 1) = 16
Divide by 4
4(x+1)/4 = 16/4
x+1 = 4
Subtract 1
x+1-1 = 4-1
x=3
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12 = ?
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12
(x)^2 - 6 - x
Multiply ↪1 (-6) = -6
1 + -6 = -5 , right?
-3 + 2 = -1, right?
After we have pulled out the like terms we have to add/subtract! x(x) - 3
Search for the common denominator
2(x) - 3
You can add up 4 for your terms
x + 2 (x - 3)
Make sure you solve this↪ 2 = 0
x + 2 = ?
x + 2 = 0
We have found the first; x = -2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since, this one has a single variable, I'll make the step easier and quicker
Solve this part ↪ x-3 = 0
If we had the number 3 to your sides we would have found the outcome of the next x
So, the second x is 3
So, therefore your answer would have to be x =-2 ; x = 3 (most likely option C.)
