Triangle with lengths \(4 , 6 , x\)
\(6 - 4 < x < 6 + 4\)
\(2 < x < 10\)
Triangle with lengths \(7 , 6 , y\)
\(7 - 6 < y < 7 + 6\)
\(1 < y < 13\)
The highest value for \(|x - y|\) can be \(13 - 2 ≈ 11\)
Qt B > Qt A
Answer B
\(6 - 4 < x < 6 + 4\)
\(2 < x < 10\)
Triangle with lengths \(7 , 6 , y\)
\(7 - 6 < y < 7 + 6\)
\(1 < y < 13\)
The highest value for \(|x - y|\) can be \(13 - 2 ≈ 11\)
Qt B > Qt A
