Which possibly forms a triangle

1 answer:

svp [43]3 years ago

Answer:

C. 17, 12, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater then the length of the third side. If you can show any two segments, the sum of whose lengths is less than the length of the third segment, that cannot form a triangle.

In choices A, B, and D, there is at least one sum of the lengths of two segments that is less then the length of the third segment. That shows that choices A, B, and D cannot form triangles.

A. 8 + 7 = 15 < 16 No

B. 9 + 7 = 16 = 16 No

D. 11 + 5 = 16 < 17 No

C.

17 + 12 = 29 > 7

12 + 7 = 19 > 17

17 + 7 = 24 > 12

Yes

What is the equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3

andreyandreev [35.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3 is $y+6=\frac{1}{3}(x+2)$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that line passes through (-2, -6) and has slope of 1/3

We have to find the equation of the line

The point slope form is given as

$y-b=m(x-a)$

where m is the slope of the line and a, b are the x, y coordinates of the given point through which the line passes.

Here in this question, m = 1/3 and a = -2 and b = -6

By substituting in point slope form we get,

$y - (-6) = \frac{1}{3}(x - (-2))\\\\y + 6 = \frac{1}{3}(x + 2)$

Hence the equation of a line, in point slope form that passes through (-2, -6) and has a slope of 1/3 is $y+6=\frac{1}{3}(x+2)$

Put the equation in standard form with a positive x coefficient. 2y+5=-4(x+2)

umka21 [38]

The standard form of equation is: 4x+2y = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

the standard form of a linear equation in two variables is given by:

$ax+by = c$

Given equation is:

$2y+5=-4(x+2)$

Distributing -4 into the round bracket

$2y+5 = -4x-8$

Adding 4x on both sides

$4x+2y+5 = -4x-8+4x\\4x+2y+5 = -8$

subtracting 5 from both sides

$4x+2y+5-5 = -8-5\\4x+2y = -13$

The standard form of equation is: 4x+2y = -13
