Question

c=7
b=6
a=?
Complete the inequality so that it represents the whole-number values that side a could be to create a triangle. (1 point)

__< a <__

Answer 1

Wrong

Answer 2

Wrong AGAIN

Answer 3

6 < a < 13

Answer 4

I apologize for the incorrect response.

To create a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, we have side b with a length of 6 and side c with a length of 7.

So, to find the range of possible values for side a, we can use the triangle inequality theorem:

a + 6 > 7

Subtracting 6 from both sides:

a > 1

Therefore, the complete inequality representing the whole-number values that side a could be to create a triangle is:

1 < a

Answer 5

Apologies for the mistake once again.

To form a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

In this case, we have side b with a length of 6 and side c with a length of 7.

To find the range of possible values for side a, we can use the triangle inequality theorem:

a + b > c

Substituting the given values:

a + 6 > 7

Subtracting 6 from both sides:

a > 1

So the complete inequality representing the whole-number values that side a could be to create a triangle is:

a > 1
