Answer:
C 24
D 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the choices offered:
5 and 7 will not form a triangle* with any of the other lengths
7 and 12 will not form a triangle with any of the other (longer) lengths
7 and 24 will form a triangle with the other possibilities, 25 and 29. (needs further consideration)
7 and 25 will not form a right triangle with 29, because a right triangle cannot have 3 odd-length sides.
__
<em>Further consideration</em>
7^2 +24^2 = 49 +576 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . checking Pythagorean theorem
The side measures 7, 24, 25 will form a right triangle.
_____
* A triangle can be formed from three segments only if the sum of the shortest two exceeds the length of the longest one.
Answer:
y=7-(8/5)x
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for y we need to get Y on one side of the equation all by itself. To start we can move the 8x to the side with the 35 by subtracting 8x on both sides which gets us to 5y=35-8x then we just need to get the 5 detached from the y and we will have solved for Y. To do this we can divide by 5 on both sides to cancel out the 5 with the Y which leaves us with y=7-(8/5)x
I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!
