Answer:

No, Henry cannot form a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of two sides must be greater than the third side.

7 (first side) + 2 (second side) = 9

The sum of these two sides is not greater than the third side (9).

So, therefore, Henry cannot form a triangle.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

$a_1=-10$

$d=3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an Arithmetic Sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant, and this constant is called the common difference (d)

In this problem we have the ordered pairs

$(1,-10),(2,-7),(3,-4),(4,-1),(5,2),(6,5)$

Let

$a_1=-10\\a_2=-7\\a_3=-4\\a_4=-1\\a_5=2\\a_6=5$

Find the difference between one term and the next

$a_2-a_1=-7-(-10)=3$

$a_3-a_2=-4-(-7)=3$

$a_4-a_3=-1-(-4)=3$

$a_5-a_4=2-(-1)=3$

$a_6-a_5=5-2=3$

The difference between one term and the next is a constant

This constant is the common difference

The sequence graphed is an Arithmetic Sequence

therefore

The first term is $a_1=-10$

The common difference is equal to $d=3$

Help? 11 3/4 is the quotient of a number y and 6 1/4

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y divided by 6 1/4 = 11 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

y divided by 25/4 = 47/4

Next, multiply both sides by 25/4:

y divided by 25/4 x 25/4 = 47/4 x 25/4

The 25/4's on the left side of the equation cancel each other out, leaving you with:

y = 47/4 x 25/4

Multiply 47 x 25 and keep the same denominator:

y = 1,175/4

Divide and:

y = 293 3/4
