Please, group your sets of numbers, using { } notation or at least semicolons ( ; ). Thanks.
Looking at what I think is your first set: { sqrt(4), sqrt(5), sqrt(16) }
Square each of these and then subst. the results into the Pythagorean Theorem:
{ 4, 5, 16 } Do 4 and 5 when added together result in 16? NO.
Therefore, { sqrt(4), sqrt(5), sqrt(16) } does not produce a right triangle.
Your turn. Pick out the next 3 numbers and test them using the Pyth. Thm.
Distribute the negative:
6x-3-8x-11
Combine like terms:
-2x-14
Simplify by factoring:
-2(x+7)
Answer:
4/5 is fully reduced
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 2(-2) - 3
-4 - 3
-7
b. 2(7) - 3
14 - 3
11
2(-4) - 3
-8 - 3
- 11
