Mathematics

4 0

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

21 = 3p - 5

<u>Step 1</u> : Add 5 on both sides

21 + 5 = 3p

26 = 3p

3p = 26

<u>Step 2</u> : Divide 3 on both sides

p = 26/3

Hence, the solution of the given equation is 26/3, not 9.

Can someone explain (with steps) how to rationalize the following expression?
insens350 [35]
F(x)=(-2/((x+y-2)^(1/2))-(x+y+2)^(1/2)
the only irrational part of this expression is the (x+y-2)^(1/2) in the denominator, so, to rationalize this, you multiply the numerator and denominator by the denominator, as well as the other parts of the expression
also, you must multiply the -sqrt(x+y+2) by sqrt(x+y-2)/sqrt(x+y-2) to form a common denominator
(-2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)-(x+y+2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(common denominator)
(-2-(x^2+xy+2x+xy+y^2+2y-2x-2y-4))/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(FOIL)
(-2-x^2-y^2-2xy+4)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Distribute negative)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Simplify numerator)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)/(x+y-2)^(1/2)(x+y-2)^(1/2)
(Rationalize denominator by multiplying both top and bottom by sqrt)
(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)((x+y-2)^(1/2))/(x+y-2)
(The function is now rational)
=(-x^2-y^2-2xy+2)(sqrt(x+y-2))/(x+y-2)

What are all the solutions to the following<br> equation?<br> |10x + 2| =48
Greeley [361]

\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}

What are all the solutions to the following

equation?

|10x + 2| =48

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

| 10 x + 2 | = 48

Combine like terms and use the properties of equality to get the variable on one side of the equals sign and the numbers on the other side. Remember to follow the order of operations.

|10x+2|=48

Use the definition of absolute value.

10x+2=48  \\ 10x+2=-48

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

10x=46 \\  10x=-50

Divide both sides by 10.

\boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: x=\frac{23}{5} = 46}} \\    \boxed{\boxed{ \bf \: x=-5 }}
