Answer:

  no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying the given equation, you have ...

  -6(x -2) +3x = -3(x +3) +21 . . . . . given

  -6x +12 +3x = -3x -9 +21 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  -3x +12 = -3x +13 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

  0 = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add (3x-12) to both sides

There is no value of x that will make this true.

The equation has NO SOLUTION.

-6(x+2) + 3x = -3(x+3) + 21

-6x - 12 + 3x = -3x - 9 + 21

-3x - 12 = -3x + 12

-3x + 3x = 12 + 12

0 = 24

Sorry but this equation has no solution.
-3x + 3x = 0, x is cancelled out so we can’t find ‘x’.

How do you tell if it's possible to make a triangle out of these side lengths?<br> PLZ HELP!!!!!
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

square root of 73 is about 8.5

square root of 10 is about 3. multiply by 3, you get 9.

square root of 7 is about 2.6. multiply by 5, you get 13.

when determining if you can make a triangle, if all variants of two sides can add up to be greater than the third side, you can make the triangle. so 8.5+9 > 13; 13+9 > 8.5; 13+8.5 > 9. this means it can make a triangle and all you have to do is order the sides.

8.5 is smallest which corresponds to angle c because it's opposite. 9 goes to angle a, then finally 13 goes to angle b. thus, angles c, a, b is the order.

side note: the smallest side length will always correspond with the smallest angle.

hope this helps :)
