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
279/34 = 8.20588235294
But if you would like to round it up it would be 8.2 or 8.21 depending on what you'd like to round it up to.
Let me know if this is what you mean. If not, I will fix it! :)
To get the answer, you divide the length of the board by the size of the pieces wanted, so the equation you get is
9/1.5 = 6
So you can get six 1.5in shelves from a 9ft board
When trying to determine the distance between two points, one would use the distance formula.
The distance formula is attached above and all you need to do is plug in the points in order to get the distance.
For example, if you were to plug them in, you would get:
√(0+4)^2 + (0+2)^2
