Adding together the shorter two sides results in 17 m. If these two sides were laid end to end, the sum of their sides (17 m) would be less than the length of the third side. Thus, NO triangle could be constructed with this set of line segments.

Answer:
$110
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a, b, and c represent the earnings of Alan, Bob, and Charles. The problem statement tells us ...
a + b + c = 480 . . . . . . the combined total of their earnings
-a + b = 40 . . . . . . . . . . Bob earned 40 more than Alan
2a - c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . Charles earned twice as much as Alan
Adding the first and third equations, we get ...
(a + b + c) + (2a - c) = (480) + (0)
3a + b = 480
Subtracting the second equation gives ...
(3a +b) - (-a +b) = (480) -(40)
4a = 440 . . . . . . . . simplify
a = 110 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of a
Alan earned $110.
_____
<em>Check</em>
Bob earned $40 more, so $150. Charles earned twice as much, so $220.
The total is then $110 +150 +220 = $480 . . . . as required
