Answer:

  x > 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

All of these three triangle inequalities must be satisfied:

  AB +BC > AC

  BC +CA > BA

  CA +AB > CB

___

Taking these one at a time, we have ...

  AB +BC > AC

  3x +4 + 2x +5 > 4x

  x +9 > 0 . . . . . subtract 4x

  x > -9

__

  BC +CA > BA

  2x +5 + 4x > 3x +4

  3x > -1 . . . . . . subtract 3x+5

  x > -1/3 . . . . . divide by 3

__

  CA + AB > CB

  4x + 3x +4 > 2x +5

  5x > 1 . . . . . . subtract 2x+4

  x > 1/5

___

The only values of x that satisfy all of these inequalities are those such that ...

  x > 1/5
