If (x-24)0.25 = 4, distribute 0.25 within the parenthesis.
0.25x - 6 = 4
0.25x = 10
Divide both sides by 0.25
x = 40
Move the 14 over and get
5x = 2
divide by 5
x = 2/5
Answer:
That is false.
The sum of any two sides in a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.
We can see that: 7+9 = 16, and 16 is not greater than 18.
So, this is not a triangle.
