Answer is C. 8, 3, 6

To answer this, you must know the Triangle Inequality Theorem.

The two shortest sides when added together, must be greater than the longest side.

A. 2 + 4= 6 which can't work since it equals the longest side of 6

B. 4 +2=6 The sum would be less than 8, which doesn't work

C. 6 +3 = 9 the sum is greater than 8, which makes it a triangle

D. 3 +8 = 11 11 is less than 12

Divide 28 cans of soda into two groups so the ratio is 3 to 4

kaheart [24]

First, you add the two ratio numbers to figure out what to divide your 28 cans of soda by.

3=4=7
Next, you divide this amount into your total amount of cans of soda.

28/7=4.

This means that for each one in the ratio, there is 4 cans. So you multiply both numbers in the ratio by 4.

3*4 = 12
4*4=16

So, your final answer is 12:16, or 12 cans of soda in one group, and 16 cans of soda in the other.

Answer:

slope = $-\frac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula given in the question to solve for the slope. The $m$ is the variable representing the slope. The $x_1$ and $y_1$ values are x and y values of one point. The $x_2$ and $y_2$ are x and y values of another point.
