This question has this set of answer choices:
a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others
b) when the plane passes through a pair of vertices that do not share a common face
c) when the plane is perpendicular to the base and intersects two adjacent vertical faces
d) when the plane makes an acute angle to the base and intersects three vertical faces
e) not enough information to answer the question
The right answer is the first choice: a) when the plane cuts three faces of the cube, separating one corner from the others
You can see a picture of this case in the figure attached: as you can see the cross section (in pink) is a triangle.

Answer:
x =
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-
=
← factor denominator
-
=
[ x ≠ 0, x ≠ - 1 as these would make the terms undefined ]
Multiply through by x(x + 1)
4x² - 5(x + 1) = 4
4x² - 5x - 4 = 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
4x² - 5x - 9 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 1)(4x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
4x - 9 = 0 ⇒ 4x = 9 ⇒ x =
However, x ≠ - 1 for reason given above, then
solution is x =
