1 answer:

3 0

Positive slope- two variables are positively related; that is when x increases, so does y and when x decreases, y decreases also.

negative slope- two variables are negatively related; that is when x increases, y decreases and when x decreases, y increases.

x-intercept- the x-coordinate of a point where a line, curve, or surface intersects the x-axis.

y-intercept- the y-coordinate of a point when a line, curve, or surface intersects the y-axis.

Is it possible to make a triangle with measure of 3mm 9mm and 5mm

tatyana61 [14]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: if you mean the measure of a is 3, the measure of b is 9 and the measure of c is 5, c being the hypotenuse then the answer is no because the the sides of a and b must be less than the measure of c. If 5 wasn’t the hypotenuse then the answer would be different.

(KEEP IN MIND THAT IF 9 IS THE HYPOTENUSE THEN THE ANSWER IS YES)

Hope this helps! :)
