Answer: \frac{170}{X}+\frac{170}{X-9}=2

(=)17 0x +170x+1530=2x²+18x

(=)-2 x² +322x+1530=0

Δ=b²-4ac

Δ=115924

\sqrt{}Δ=340,476>0

because Δ>0 so that 2 X

=>x₁=2 (true), x₂=-161(false)

X+9= 2+9=11

first travel 2 mi/hr

second travel 11 mi/hr

Evan is making a table that will be created in the shape of the figure below. The table top is a triangle attached to a rectangl
emmainna [20.7K]
Area of a triangle:
A (triangle )= 4 · 6 / 2 = 12 ft²
150 - 12 = 138 ft² ( the maximum area of the rectangle )
L = ?
W = 6 ft
A ( rectangle ) = L · W
L · 6 = 138
L = 138 : 6 = 23 ft.
Answer: the maximum length of the base of the rectangle he can build is 23 ft.

What could be the intersection of plane PRS and plane QRS?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The plane PRS passes through the points P, R and S. So it contains the line RS. Also the plane QRS passes through the points Q, R and S. So it contains the line RS as well. Since both the planes contain the line RS, the line RS must be the intersection of plane PRS and QRS
