Answer:

DE = 15

DF = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

E___D___F

EF = DE + DF

38 = (3x +9) + (12x-1)

38 = 15x + 8

15x = 38 - 8

15x = 30

x = 30/15

x = 2

DE = 3x + 9 = 3(2) + 9 = 6 + 9 = 15

DF = 12x - 1 = 12(2) - 1 = 24 - 1 = 23

I hope I helped you^_^

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

A ∩ B = {4, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

A die had 6 faces

S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

If A  be the event of rolling an even number, then;

A = {2, 4, 6}

If B be the event of rolling a number greater than 3, then;

B = {4, 5, 6}

A ∩ B are the values that are common to both sets

A ∩ B = {4, 6}

a] Maximum height
At maximum height d'(t)=0
from d(t);
d'(t)=-32t+32=0
thus
t=1
hence the maximum height will be:
d(t)=-16t²+32t+88
d(1)=-16(1)^2+32(1)+88
d(1)=104 ft
