In order to form a triangle, the third side must be at least greater than the difference of the other two sides
4 - 3 = 1 So the third side must be greater than 1 foot and the third side must be less than the sum of the other two sides
4 + 3 = 7 So, the third side must be less than 7
1 < third side < 7
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
2+2=4
4(x + 7) = 38
Since there is no operation sign between the 4 and parenthesis, it makes it an automatic multiplication problem.
You would use distributive property to multiply each which should leave your equation looking like this afterwards:
4x + 28 = 38
(4 times x and 4 times 7)
You would then solve it like a two step equation,
1. +28 - 28 = 0
2. 38 - 28 = 10
4x = 10
10 divided by 4 = 2.5
x = 2.5
We can recheck our work by substituting in the value of x.
4(2.5 + 7) = 38
10 + 28 = 38
When we substituted in the value, it gave us the correct inequality.
Therefore,
x = 2.5
He lost 8, so he is at -8, he then gains 15 so add 15 to -8"-8 + 15 = 7
He gains 7 so now add 7 to the total: 7+ 7 = 14
He then loses 4, so now subtract 4 from the total: 14 - 4 = 10
Answer: He gained 10 yards.
5. million 6. Ten thousand
