Answer:
2,4 and 7 do not form a triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
To form a triangle, knowing the 3 sides, then
The sum of any 2 sides must be greater than the third side
Consider 2, 4, 7
2 + 4 = 6 < 7
2 + 7 = 9 > 4
4 + 7 = 11 > 2
Since 2 + 4 < 7
Then these 3 sides would not form a triangle
The denominator. Say for instance, you have 4/12 and 1/6. They are equivalent.
Step 1: plug in 5 and 2 for your X and Y
Step 2: multiply 8*X or in this case 8*5 and you will get 40
Step 3: multiply 3*Y or in this case 3*2 and you will get 6
Step 4: subtract 40-6 and you will get 34
