9514 1404 393

Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

y is the geometric mean of the segment lengths.

  y = √(4·1)

  y = 2

_____

You can also get there by considering the similarity of the triangles:

  short side / long side = y/4 = 1/y

  y^2 = 4 . . . . . . . multiply by 4y\

second cars time t+3



same distance


distance=55.t


distance=40. (t+3)



55t=40 (t+3)

16. Solve the equation. Check the solution.
harina [27]
Hi there

a/(a² - 36) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
a/(a+6)(a-6) + 2/(a-6) = 1/(a+6)
Now we need to multiply the terms by (a+6)(a-6)
a + 2(a+6) = 1(a-6)
a + 2a + 12 = a - 6
3a + 12 = a - 6
3a - a = -6 - 12
2a = -18
Divide both sides by 2
2a/2 = -18/2
a = -9
Thus, The correct option is A


I hope that's help !

Good luck !
