Answer:

E. 13 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

As two machine Y and Z at constant rate is in 3/2 .So if a machine Y is working 3/2 then the rate of other machine Z is 2/3 time take. Y take 9 minutes.So, 9 = (2/3) the time

so T = 9 * 3 / 2

T = 13.5

So option E is true.

Aaron is at a spot in his book where the page numbers of the two facing pages have a product of 1980 what are the two page numbe
Alona [7]
Basically you know that they are 2 consecutive numbers whose product is 1980. 
<span>n*(n+1)=1980 </span>
<span>n^2 + n - 1980 = 0 </span>
<span>(n -44)(n + 45)= 0 </span>
<span>n=44 </span>
<span>so the 2 page numbers is 44 and 45. </span>

<span>The faster way is just to take the square root of 1980 and since that is 44.497 you can conclude that the 2 numbers is below and above it (44, 45)</span>

Draw a picture of a building and a one mile (or 5280 feet) distance to a point from the base of the building. 

The angle of elevation is given as 11° and we want the height of the building or x. 

tan(11°) = x/5280 

5280 tan(11°) = x 

1026.3 feet = x
