Why is it not possible to form a right triangle with the lengths 2, 4 and 7?

Answer:

It is not possible to form *any* triangle from the lengths 2, 4, and 7. The two short sides don't add to a length at least as long as the long side.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test. Hope this helps!

Would 1/5 be greater than 1/3 but less than 2/3
makvit [3.9K]
1/5 = 3/15
1/3 = 5/15
2/3 = 10/15
So no :)

Reason why:
You want to find the common denominator between all three fractions, so all fractions are the same proportions. So in this case, if you multiply 5*3 you get 15, making it the common denominator. Then since you multiplied the 5 in 1/5 by 3 to get 15, and you have to multiply the 3 in 1/3 and 2/3 by 5 to get 15, then you multiply the numerator by the same number.

Sorry I am terrible at explaining things. Hope this helped though!

last month , he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550 . This month , he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532. How much does a
Kazeer [188]
Hello there, my fellow human being!
So, the chicken costs $8 and the duck costs $5, here's why.

Let's say x is the cost of a chicken while y is the cost of a duck.
We can make two linear equations using the information above.
Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y= 550
This month, he sold 44 chicken and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532

50x/10 + 30y/10 = 440/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4

5x + 3y = 44
11x + 9y = 133

So, now that we have our answer simplified, we have to use elimination to solve this system of equations. But, first we need to make sure that at least one of our variables is able to be canceled out.
Let's multiply this equation by -3.
(5x + 3y = 44) * -3.

-15x-9y=-165.

11x + 9y = 133
-15x - 9y = -165
______________
-4x/4 = -32/4
x = 8
11x + 9y = 133
11(8) + 9y = 133
88 + 9y = 133
-88 -88

9y/9 = 45/9
y = 5.
