Answer:
b. -3
Step-by-step explanation:
9(2x+1) < 9x-18
(distribute the 9)
18x+9 <9x-18
(subtract 9 from both sides)
18x<9x-27
(subtract 9x from both sides)
9x<-27
(divide both sides by 9)
x<-3
Answer:
Case 1:


Case 2:


Case 3: Not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for illustration of each case
Required
Find AB and BC
Case 1:
Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

This gives:



Take square roots of both sides


To calculate BC, we consider ANC, where:



Collect like terms


Take square roots


So:



Case 2:
Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

This gives:


Collect like terms


Take square roots of both sides


To calculate BC, we consider ABC, where:



Collect like terms


Take square roots


Case 3:
This is not possible because in ANC
The hypotenuse AN (24) is less than AC (40)
