Answer:

No. The sum of 2 and 4 is less than 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first, to create a triangle, the sum of two smallest sides have to be greater than the longest side, which is 2+4 = 6, and 6 is smaller than 7.

So, no, 2, 4, and 7 cannot create a triangle, to be exact a right triangle.

Hope this helps!!

A pilot traveling 175 miles per hour encounters a head wind of 35 knots. If there are 1.15 knots per mph, what will her true spe

KonstantinChe [14]

Since one knot is 1.15 mph.
We multiply 35 time 1.15, which equals 40.25 mph.
Then we subtract. 175 - 4.25 = 134.75
Round, and you'll get 135mph
Therefore, your answer is 135mph
