Use the pythagorean theorem to explain whether or not 7, 8, and 14 could be the side lengths of a right triangle. show all calculations necessary to support your explanation.

 NOT a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides must equal the square of the larger side.

7² + 8² = 14²

49 + 64 = 196

    113    = 196     FALSE!

These side lengths do not form a right triangle.

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
