Answer:

  • No

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use triangle inequality theorem, which states</u>

<em>"The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side."</em>

<u>The sum of two sides compared to the remaining side:</u>

  • 7 + 11 = 18 = 18 - not ok
  • 7 + 18 = 25 > 11 - ok
  • 11 + 18 = 29 > 7 - ok

The sum of two sides is equal to the third side. This makes it impossible to make a triangle. Therefore the answer is no.

Julie has three boxes of pens. The diagram shows expressions for the number of pens in each box. Look at these equations.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

a = c + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

a = b + 12

b = c + 4

Solve for b in the first equation.

a = b + 12

a - 12 = b

Put b as a - 12 in the second equation and solve for a.

a - 12 = c + 4

a = c + 4 + 12

a = c + 16

Martin wants to build an additional closet in a corner of his bedroom. Because the closet will be in a corner, only two new wall
Gekata [30.6K]

The relationship between the length & the width of the closet and the length of the wall is an illustration of a linear equation.

  • <em>The equation for f(l) is: </em>f(l) = 1.5l<em>.</em>
  • <em>The desired length and width are 8m and 4m</em>

<em />

Given that:

l = 2w

Divide both sides by 2

w = 0.5l

<u>Equation of f(l)</u>

The sum of the length and the width is represented as: f(l).

So, we have:

f(l) = l + w

Substitute w = 0.5l

f(l) = l + 0.5l

f(l) = 1.5l

See attachment for the graph of f(l)

<u>The desired dimension</u>

From the question, we understand that the total length is 12m.

This means that:

f(l) = 12

So, we have:

1.5l = 12

Divide both sides by 1.5

l = 8

Recall that:

w = 0.5l

w = 0.5 \times 8

w = 4

Hence, the desired length and width are 8m and 4m, respectively.
