Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a triangle the 2 smaller sides must join together to become greater than or equal to the biggest side.

8+7=15

Therefore,

side lengths 8, 7, and 15 do create a triangle.

Hope this helps

Answer:

No, this can cannot create a triangle because to create a triangle you need two sides greater than one of the side and since 8+7=15 and 15 cannot be equal to 15 and it had to be more than 15 or so.

Possible ways to create triangle

a+b>c

a+c>b

b+c>a

Hi.

To formally answer your question:

D. y = 0.75x + 11

We can prove this by substituting x with 1 (the initial measurement)

y = 0.75(1) + 11 = 11.75

Find the distance from point A to the given line: A(-1, 7), y=3x How do I solve this?

kipiarov [429]

he formula of a distance between a point (a, b)

and a line Ax + By + C = 0:

$d=\dfrac{|Aa+Bb+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}$

We have the point A(-1, 7) → a = -1, b = 7

and the line y = 3x → 3x - y = 0 → A = 3, B = -1, C = 0.

Substitute:

$d=\dfrac{|(3)(-1)+(-1)(7)+0|}{\sqrt{3^2+(-1)^2}}=\dfrac{|-3-7|}{\sqrt{9+1}}=\dfrac{|-10|}{\sqrt{10}}=\dfrac{10\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{10}\cdot\sqrt{10}}\\\\=\dfrac{10\sqrt{10}}{10}=\sqrt{10}$

<h3>Answer: d = √10</h3>
