Answer:
A) Quantity x minus 5 over quantity x plus 1, where x≠-1 and x≠-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying the numerator first:
x² + 4x - 45 using the quadratic formula you get;
(x - 5)(x + 9)
Then simplifying the denominator x² + 10x + 9 using a quadratic formula you get;
(x + 1)(x + 9)
Dividing the numerator and denominator now gives;
Cancelling (x + 9) throughout leaves you with;
The only restrictions here is if x = 1 and 9 which will give an undefined answer.
Answer:
CU = 117
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
substituting in values to the ratios
=
( cross- multiply )
24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )
36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )
36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )
x = 4
CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
