Answer:

Sample Response: No, constructing the triangle is impossible. The triangle inequality rule specifies that the sum of any two sides has to be greater than the remaining side. 6 + 4 amounts to 10, which is less than 11.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Pythagorean Inequality Theorem, the sum of the two shorter sides must exceed the length of the third side.

4+6=10  

11 is still greater than 10.

Hence, constructing such a triangle is not feasible.

<span>A table representing a function is provided below.
x    1    2    3    4    5
y    1   16  64 256 1,024

According to the data in the table, from x = 2, the value of y can be represented as
y=4^x
which is equivalent to
4^2=16 \\ 4^3=64 \\ 4^4=256 \\ 4^5=1,024
This indicates an exponential function.

Thus, the </span><span>most accurate description of the function's graph is: "The graph initially appears flat but ascends sharply."</span>
