The lengths of two sides of a triangle are shown below: Side 1: 3x2 - 4x - 1 Side 2: 4x - x2 + 5 The perimeter of the triangle is 5x3 - 2x2 + 3x - 8. Part A: What is the total length of the two sides, 1 and 2, of the triangle? (4 points) Part B: What is the length of the third side of the triangle? (4 points) Part C: Do the answers for Part A and Part B show that the polynomials are closed under addition and subtraction? Justify your answer. (2 points)

plzzzzz help

OpenStudy (gorv):

find the solution of these quadratic equations

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

|dw:1410029137542:dw|

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\[perimeter =side1+side2+side3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help me work it out

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

show ur work i will find mistakes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont k how to do it

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

part A , Add side 1 and side 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got this for A 2x^2+4

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yes its correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i got this for B -5x^3+3x-4

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

its wrong

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

look again at the perimeter formula i gave

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\[third side=perimeter-(first side +second side)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2x^3-4 this is what i got

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

nope

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

look at the third side formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x^3-2^2+3x-8 - (2x^2+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm stuck on how to solve this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this right so far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i messed up on the subtraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5x^3-2x^2+3x-8 (-2x^2+6)

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

5x^3-2x^2+3x-8 -(2x^2+4)
