2x + 5 - 6x + 21 = 2(3x - 5) - 4

distribute

2x+5 -6x +21 = 6x-10 -4

combine like terms

-4x +26 = 6x -14

add 4x to each side

26 = 10x -14

add 14 to each side

40 = 10x

divide by 10

4 =x

Can you form a right triangle with the three lengths given? Why or why not? 4mi, 5mi, 6mi

Vladimir [108]

A right triangle must satisfy this equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a= shortest length
b=medium length
c=the longest length

a triangle with sides 4,5,6 will satisfy not this equation because:
4^2 + 5^2 ≠ 6^2
16+25 = 41

41 ≠ 36

so the answer is C.

Hope this helps.
