OK, a triangle first of all needs to have a certain condition satisfied. The length of one side of a triangle can not equal the length of 2 sides combined. So in a triangle a + b = c, a + b can not be less than c (a + b <span>≮ c</span>). Therefore, there are only a few possibilities that will work here. Let's find them:

16, 19, 43; no

16, 19, 50; no

16, 43, 50; yes

19, 43, 50; yes 

Since only 2 out of 4 form triangles, there is a 50% chance you'll pick the right segments to form a triangle.

Is 1 x7 positive or negative
padilas [110]

Not sure if I quite understand your question. But ill assume that you're asking if 1 times 7 is positive. Or if 1x7 is positive.

1 times 7 equals 7 so it is a positive integer.

1x7 can be positive or negative depending on what x equals. If x is a negative number then the whole expression is negative. If x is postive the expression is positive.
