The triangle inequality tells us that the sum of the two shorter sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side.

Here, 21 cm is one of the shorter sides, and x cm must be the length of the other shorter side.

So using the triangle inequality, 
21+x > 2x
or x<21 cm
To the nearest 0.1 cm, the greatest possible length of the longest side (2x) is 2*21-0.1 cm = 41.9 cm < 2x=42 cm.

Arial says that, for any pair of linear relations, if the coefficients of the y-terms are equal and the coefficients of the x-te
wel

Answer:

<h3>a. Give an example for which Arial's claim is true.</h3>

If linear relations have equal coefficient about the independent variable, then those linear relations are parallel. For example, y=3x+4 and y=3x-5.

Notice that the coefficient of the dependent variable must be also equal, otherwise it would change the slope of the expression and they wouldn't be parallel.

<h3>b. Give an example for which Arial's claim is false. </h3>

The statement is not false.

<h3>c. Suggest an improvement to Arial's claim.</h3>

An improvemente would be that the constant term no need to be equal too, between linear relations, because they can be at "differecent heights", sort of speak.
