Definition of additive inverse.- If two numbers are added together and the sum is zero, they are the additive inverse of each other.
<span>......................................... IF A + B = 0 , they are the additive inverse of each other.
</span>
<span>Multiplicative Inverse.- If two numbers are multiplied together and the product is one. They are the multiplicative inverse of each other, also called reciprocal. </span>
<span>......................................... A.B = 1 , they are the multiplicative inverse of each other.
</span>
<span>Example of: </span>
<span>Additive inverses :................ 5 + ( - 5 ) = 0 </span>
<span>Multiplicative inverses...........5 x 1/5 = 1 </span>
<span>Let the number of chairs in a row be x, then the total number of chairs is 9x + 3 = 7x + 19. i.e. 9x + 3 = 7x + 19; 9x - 7x = 19 - 3; 2x = 16 x = 16/2 = 8. Thus there are 8 chairs in each row. Therefore, the total number of chairs is given by 9(8) + 3 = 72 + 3 = 75.I hope that my answer is helpful! Let me know if you need something more :)</span>
Ok, so remember
the legnth of the longest side must be LESS THAN the sum of the measures of the other 2 sides
if no longest side (becasue it has 2 longest sides or 3 equal sides), then it can form a triangle
so the longest side is 36
36 must be less than the sum of 15 and 20
36<15+20
36<35
false
therfor it cannot form a triangle
try it yourself, you cannot connect them that way
The answer is zero point four three
You could also write this answer as 0.43
