To solve for r, you would start by subtracting p from both sides.
2m - p = -q/r
Multiply everything by r.
2mr - pr = -q
Factor r out of the left side of the equation.
r(2m - p) = -q
Divide both sides by (2m - p).
r =
.
Given:
Sides of triangles in the options.
To find:
Which could NOT be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
Solution:
Condition for triangle:
Sum of two smaller sides of a triangle must be greater than the longest side.
In option A,

Sides 5 in, 5 in, 5 in are the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
In option B,

Sides 10 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm are the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
In option C,

Sides 3 in, 4 in, 5 in are the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
In option D,

Since, the sum of two smaller sides is less than the longest side, therefore the sides 8 ft, 15 ft, 5 ft are not the lengths of the sides of a triangle.
Therefore, the correct option is D.
Answer:
3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
I think that you mean "How do you estimate the square root of 12."
1. √12 is between √9 and √16, which are 3 and 4
2. We know that the square root of 12 is between 3 and 4, and we can estimate to the tenth, getting 3.4
a term will be the expression between the + or - signs
