Jeremiah is working on a model bridge. He needs to create triangular components, and he plans to use toothpicks. He finds three toothpicks of lengths 4 in., 5 in., and 1 in. Will he be able to create the triangular component with these toothpicks without modifying any of the lengths?

No

Step-by-step explanation:

According to triangle inequality theorem which state that: the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

Now let's test the given parameters if they obey this theorem

4 inches, 5 inches and 1 inch

4 + 5 = 9

9 > 1 correct

5 + 1 = 6

6 > 4 correct

4 + 1 = 5

5 not > 5 wrong

Therefore he won't be able to create the triangular component with these toothpicks without modifying any of the lengths

the graph in the attached figure

the roots are ( x-intercepts) x=-0.5,x=1,x=3

the y-intercept is the point (0,3)
