Mathematics

zzz [600]1 year ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.

{a}^{3}  -  {b}^{3}  = (a - b)( {a}^{2}  + ab +  {b}^{2} )

Cube root of x^3 is x.

Cube root of 8 is 2

So

a=x

b= 2.

(x - 2)( {x}^{2}  - 2x + 4)

Set these equations equal to zero

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

{x}^{2}  - 2x + 4 = 0

If we do the discriminant, we get a negative answer so we would have two imaginary solutions,

Thus the only real root is 2.

If you want imaginary solutions, apply the quadratic formula.

1 + i  \sqrt{ 3 }

and

1 - i \sqrt{3}

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

(2x - 6)² = (2x)² - 2*2x *6 + 6²

             = 4x² - 24x + 36

If a wheel with a radius of 50 inches spins at a rate of 500 revolutions per minute, find the approximate linear velocity in mil
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The linear velocity in miles per our is 14789400 mph .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The radius of wheel = 50 inches

So, the diameter of wheel = 2 × radius = 2×50 = 100 inches

Or, Diameter = 100 × 1.57 miles = 157 miles

The number of revolution per minutes = 500 RPM

or, The number of revolution per hours = 500 × 60 = 30,000 RPH

Now, Circumference of wheel = \pi×diameter

Or, C = 3.14 × 157 = 492.98 miles

So, Distance cover by wheel = C × RPH × Time in hour

or, D = 492.98 × 30,000 × Time in hour

And Velocity = \dfrac{\textrm Distance in miles }{\textrm Time in hour}

or, V = \dfrac{\textrm  492.98 × 30,000 × Time in hour }{\textrm Time in hour}

or, V = 14789400 miles per hour

Hence The linear velocity in miles per our is 14789400 mph .   Answer

Y=3x-2<br> Y=-x+6<br> Soving linear equations by substitution
9966 [12]
Subsitution is subsituting
y=3x-2
y=-x+6
subsitute 3x-2 for y in second equation
3x-2=-x+6
add x to both sides
4x-2=6
add 2 to both sides
4x=8
divide both sides by 4
x=2
subsitute
y=-x+6
y=-2+6
y=4

x=2
y=4
