6 0

Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

The integers 5 and 5 sum to 10 and have the largest possible product.

___

The two numbers will be x and (10-x). Their product is x(10-x), which describes a downward-opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=10. The maximum (vertex) of that parabola is halfway between the zeros, at x=5. Both integers have the same value: 5. Their product is 25.

If there is a requirement the integers be distinct, then 6 and 4 are the integers of choice. Their product is 24.

9.a )Explain why plane JKL is not an appropriate
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

I will attach the missing drawing with the answer.

9.b)

Plane JKM

Plane JLM

Plane KLM

Step-by-step explanation:

The drawing for this question is missing. I will attach it with the answer.

9.a) Plane JKL is not an appropriate name for the plane because all of three points lie in the same line.

Through a line pass infinite planes. The plane JKL doesn't define a unique plane. That's why plane JKL isn't an appropriate name for the plane.

9.b) We can name the plane using three points that don't lie in the same line.

Three possible names for the plane are :

Plane JKM

Plane JLM

Plane KLM
