Answer:

  4733

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached diagram.

Point A can be assigned x-coordinate "p". Then its y-coordinate is 6p^2. The slope at that point is y'(p) = 12p.

Point B can be assigned x-coordinate "r". Then its y-coordinate is 6r^2. The slope at that point is y'(r) = 12r.

We want the slopes at those points to have a product of -1 (so the tangents are perpendicular). This means ...

  (12p)(12r) = -1

  r = -1/(144p)

The slope of line AB in the diagram is the ratio of the differences of y- and x-coordinates:

  slope AB = (ry -py)/(rx -px) = (6r^2 -6p^2)/(r -p) = 6(r+p) . . . . simplified

The slope of AB is also the tangent of the sum of these angles: the angle AC makes with the x-axis and angle CAB. The tangent of a sum of angles is given by ...

  tan(α+β) = (tan(α) +tan(β))/1 -tan(α)·tan(β))

__

Of course the slope of a line is equal to the tangent of the angle it makes with the x-axis. The tangent of angle CAB is 2 (because the aspect ratio of the rectangle is 2). This means we can write ...

  slope AB = ((slope AC) +2)/(1 -(slope AC)(2))

  6(p+r)=\dfrac{12p+2}{1-(12p)(2)}\\\\3(p+r)(1-24p)=6p+1\qquad\text{multiply by $1-24p$}\\\\3\left(p-\dfrac{1}{144p}\right)(1-24p)=6p+1\qquad\text{use the value for r}\\\\3(144p^2-1)(1-24p)=144p(6p+1)\qquad\text{multiply by 144p}\\\\ 3456 p^3+ 144 p^2+ 24 p+1 =0\qquad\text{put in standard form}\\\\144p^2(24p+1)+(24p+1)=0\qquad\text{factor by pairs}\\\\(144p^2+1)(24p+1)=0\qquad\text{finish factoring}\\\\p=-\dfrac{1}{24}\qquad\text{only real solution}\\\\r=\dfrac{-1}{144p}=\dfrac{1}{6}

So, now we can figure the coordinates of points A and B, and the distance between them. That distance is given by the Pythagorean theorem as ...

  d^2 = (6r^2 -6p^2)^2 +(r -p)^2

  d^2 = (6(1/6)^2 -6(-1/24)^2)^2 +(1/6 +1/24)^2 = 25/1024 +25/576 = 625/9216

Because of the aspect ratio of the rectangle, the area is 2/5 of this value, so we have ...

  Rectangle Area = (2/5)(625/9216) = 125/4608 = a/b

Then a+b = 125 +4608 = 4733.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>

The point of intersection of the tangent lines is a fairly messy expression, and that propagates through any distance formulas used to find rectangle side lengths. This seemed much cleaner, though maybe not so obvious at first.

The answer would be A because it has to increase not decrease in x. 12*8=96. 2(96)=192
16*12=192 :)

12x - 24 + 3x = 1/3x + 4 + 10x plz no link or spam (i will report you)
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

x=6

15x - 24 = 1/3x + 4 + 10x

=

45x - 72 = x + 12 + 30x

=

45x - 72 = 31x + 12

=

45x - 31x = 12 + 72

=

14x = 84

=

x = 6

Which system of equations would have no solution? pls helpp
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

3x+y=8 and 3x+y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume these two equations:

a1x+b1y+c1=0

a2x+b2y+c2=0

If (a1/a2) = (b1/b2) ≠ (c1/c2) than those two would have no solution.

In these case, take a look at the last option:

3x  + y = 8 \\ 3x + y = 9

Re-write 'em as a standard form:

3x  + y - 8 = 0 \\ 3x + y - 9 = 0

So (a1/a2) = (b1/b2) ≠ (c1/c2) is true here:

\frac{3}{3}  =  \frac{1}{1}  ≠ \frac{ - 8}{ - 9}

And they do not have any collision point
