Solve for x if sqrt (3x-8) + 1 = sqrt (x+5)

The solution of x in the given expression \mathbf{\sqrt{(3x-8)}+1 = \sqrt{(x+5)}} is 4. However, if it is \mathbf{\sqrt{(3x-8)+1} = \sqrt{(x+5)}}, it is 6.

<h3>What is the solution to algebraic expression?</h3>

The solution to the given algebra expression involving surds can be seen in the steps below.

Given that:

\mathbf{\sqrt{(3x-8)}+1 = \sqrt{(x+5)}}

Remove the square roots, we have:

12x - 32 = 4x² - 48x + 144

Solving the quadratic equation at the RHS and equating it to LHS, we have:

x = 11, x = 4

Verifying the solutions by replacing the value of x with the given equation:

  • x = 11 False
  • x = 4 True

Therefore, we can conclude that the value of x = 4

NOTE:

Given that:

\mathbf{\sqrt{(3x-8+1)} = \sqrt{(x+5)}}

Square both sides

3x - 7 = x +5

Solve for x

3x - x = 5 + 7

2x = 12

x = 6

Solve the differential equation 3ydx+(xy+5x)dy=0
Brrunno [24]

The ODE is separable:

3y\,\mathrm dx+(xy+5x)\,\mathrm dy=0\implies x(y+5)\,\mathrm dy=-3y\,\mathrm dx\implies\dfrac{y+5}y\mathrm dy=-\dfrac3x\,\mathrm dx

Integrating both sides gives

\displaystyle\int\left(1+\frac5y\right)\,\mathrm dy=-3\int\frac{\mathrm dx}x\implies y+5\ln|y|=-3\ln|x|+C

How does the volume of a cylinder change when its diameter is tripled
cupoosta [38]
V(cylinder)= πr²h
d=2r,
d is diameter, r is radius.
When diameter is tripled, a new diameter D=3d,
new radius R=3d/2=(3*2r)/2=3r
R=3r

V(new cylinder)= πR²h = π(3r)²h=9πr²h

V(new cylinder)/V(cylinder)=9πr²h/πr²h=9

Volume new cylinder 9 times more the volume of old cylinder.
