Answer:
D. Rectangle
Step-by-step explanation:
If you cut the pyramid with a plane parallel to the base, a square is obtained. If the plane is perpendicular to the base, you can obtain two different figures; if the plane passes through the vertex, a triangle is obtained, but if it doesn't pass through the vertex, a trapezoid is obtained.
To factor both numerator and denominator in this rational expression we are going to substitute

with

; so

and

. This way we can rewrite the expression as follows:

Now we have two much easier to factor expressions of the form

. For the numerator we need to find two numbers whose product is

(30) and its sum

(-11); those numbers are -5 and -6.

and

.
Similarly, for the denominator those numbers are -2 and -5.

and

. Now we can factor both numerator and denominator:

Notice that we have

in both numerator and denominator, so we can cancel those out:

But remember than

, so lets replace that to get back to our original variable:

Last but not least, the denominator of rational expression can't be zero, so the only restriction in the variable is


Answer:
128 sq. ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
The outer sides of the walkway will have a length of 20 feet and the breadth will be 16 feet
The area of the pool along with the walkway will be 20 × 16 = 320 square feet.
Area of the pool without the walkway will be 16 × 12 = 192 square feet.
Therefore area of the walkway will be
352 - 216 = 128 square feet.
Answer:
60 oz of water to add
45 oz of 35% salt solution should be used
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amt no. ounces in the first solution
and 105 - x = amt no. of ounces in the second solution
Ist solution contains 0% salt
2nd solution contains .35(105 - x) salt
.15(105= amt of salt in mix
So.
amt of salt in 1st solution + amt of salt in 2nd solution = amt of salt in the mix
0 + .35(105 - x) = .15(105)
Let's get rid of the fractions by multipying thru the equation by 100
35(105 - x) = 15(105)
3675 - 35x = 1575
-35x = -2100
x = 60 oz of water to add
105 - 60 = 45 oz of 35% salt solution should be used
Run is the horizontal change between points. Run in slope means the change in "x" .
