8cm and 9 cm because the sum of the two sides must be greater than 13.

5+8=13
6+7=13
7+2=9
8+9=17

Answer:

8 cm and 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The sum of the lengths of two sides of a triangle must <em>always be greater</em> than the length of the third side.

5 cm and 8 cm ⇒ 5+8=13; not greater than 13

6 cm and 7 cm ⇒ 6+7=13; not greater than 13

7 cm and 2 cm ⇒ 7+2=9; not greater than 13

8 cm and 9 cm ⇒ 8+9=17; greater than 13

Therefore, the last set of two sides is possible for the lengths of the the other two sides of this triangle.

I hope this helps!

DaniilM [7]

Algebra

The equation that represents the relationship between , and the number of days he has been reading , d is p = 40 + (12 × d)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom has read the first 40 pages of a book.

He plans to read another 12 pages each day

Since the total number of pages is p

And the Number of days required to read the book is d

if Tom read 12 pages per day, then in d days he would read 12 × d pages

h/e has already read 40 pages of the book

Then total pages of the book

p = 40 + (12 × d)

Hence, The equation that represents the relationship between , and the number of days he has been reading , d is p = 40 + (12 × d)
