Answer:

The largest angle is 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles of a triangle add to 180

The ratio is 10 : 3: 7

Multiply each by x

10x, 3x 7x

Add them together and set equal to 180

10x+3x+7x = 180

Combine like terms

20x = 180

Divide by 20

20x/20x =180/20

x = 9

The largest angle is 10x

10*9 = 90

The largest angle is 90 degrees

Find the quotient and any excluded values. (x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20)/(x^2-16/x-4)

Wittaler [7]

By (x + 5/x^2 + 9x + 20) you apparently meant the following:

x+5
----------------------
x^2 + 9x + 20

and by

(x^2-16/x-4)
x^2-16
you apparently meant ---------------
x - 4

Please use additional parentheses for clarity.

Dividing,

 x+5 (x-4)(x+4)
---------------------- * ---------------
x^2 + 9x + 20 x-4

Now, x^2 + 9x + 20 factors into (x+4)(x+5), so what we have now is

(x+5)(x+4)
------------------------- = 1 This is true for all x, so there are no exclusions.
(x+4)(x+5)
