Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sum of the two smallest sides of a triangle are less than the third side, then the triangle cannot be constructed, since the sides would not be able to touch. However, since 35+120 is greater 125, this triangle can be formed. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Yes(4th choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle inequalities tell us, that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third. This checks out for all values in this triangle:

125 + 35 > 120 Check

120+25 > 125 Check

125 + 120 > 35 Check

What is 4.3(v+2.5)=8.11+4v

True [87]

Answer:

-8.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by simplifying the parenthesis through multiplication. Parenthesis is a structure which signals multiplication happening.

$4.3(v+2.5)=8.11+4v\\4.3v+10.75=8.11+4v$

We now begin combining like terms across the equal sign by performing the inverse or doing the opposite. Move first the 8.11 by subtracting it from both sides.

$4.3v+10.75-8.11=8.11-8.11+4v\\4.3v+2.64=4v$
