Step-by-step explanation:

so, I read here

2/3 x + 3x/x = 4x/2 × (3x + 6)

that is

2/3 x + 3 = 4x/2 × (3x + 6)

2x/3 + 3 = 2x × (3x + 6)

2x + 9 = 6x × (3x + 6)

2x + 9 = 18x² + 36x

18x² + 34x - 9 = 0

the general solution to a quadratic equation is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 18

b = 34

c = -9

x = (-34 ± sqrt(34² - 4×18×-9))/(2×18) =

= (-34 ± sqrt(1156 + 648))/36 =

= (-34 ± sqrt(1804))/36 =

= (-34 ± sqrt(4×11×41))/36 =

= (-34 ± 2×sqrt(451))/36

x1 = (-34 + 2×sqrt(451))/36 =

= 0.235375588...

x2 = (-34 - 2×sqrt(451))/36 =

= -2.124264477...

Answer:

x=\dfrac{-17+ \sqrt{451} }{18}, \quad x=\dfrac{-17- \sqrt{451} }{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

\textsf{Given equation}:

\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{3x}{x}=\dfrac{4x}{2}(3x+6)

\textsf{Cancel the common factor } x \textsf{ in }\dfrac{3x}{x}:

\implies \dfrac{2}{3}x+3=\dfrac{4x}{2}(3x+6)

\textsf{Simplify }\dfrac{4x}{2}\textsf{ by dividing the numbers}:

\implies \dfrac{2}{3}x+3=2x(3x+6)

\textsf{Apply the distributive law}\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac:

\implies \dfrac{2}{3}x+3=6x^2+12x

\textsf{Multiply both sides by 3 to cancel the denominator of }\dfrac{2}{3}:

\implies \dfrac{2}{3}x\cdot 3+3\cdot 3=6x^2\cdot 3+12x \cdot 3

\implies 2x+9=18x^2+36x

\textsf{Switch sides}:

\implies 18x^2+36x=2x+9

\textsf{Subtract }2x \textsf{ from both sides}:

\implies 18x^2+36x-2x=2x+9-2x

\implies 18x^2+34x=9

\textsf{Subtract 9 from both sides}:

\implies 18x^2+34x-9=9-9

\implies 18x^2+34x-9=0

Solve using the <u>Quadratic Formula:</u>

x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0

Define the variables:

\implies a=18, \quad b=34, \quad c=-9

Substitute the defined variables into the quadratic formula and solve for x:

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm \sqrt{34^2-4(18)(-9)} }{2(18)}

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm \sqrt{1156+648} }{36}

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm \sqrt{1804} }{36}

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 451} }{36}

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{451} }{36}

\implies x=\dfrac{-34 \pm 2\sqrt{451} }{36}

\implies x=\dfrac{-17 \pm \sqrt{451} }{18}

Therefore, the solutions to the given equation are:

x=\dfrac{-17+ \sqrt{451} }{18}, \quad x=\dfrac{-17- \sqrt{451} }{18}

Find the projection of the vector A = î - 2ġ + k on the vector B = 4 i - 4ſ + 7k. 15. Given the vectors A = 2 i +3 ſ +6k and B =
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Part 1)

Projection of vector A on vector B equals 19 units

Part 2)

Projection of vector B' on vector A' equals 35 units

Step-by-step explanation:

For 2 vectors A and B the projection of A on B is given by the vector dot product of vector A and B

Given

\overrightarrow{v_{a}}=\widehat{i}-2\widehat{j}+\widehat{k}

Similarly vector B is written as

\overrightarrow{v_{b}}=4\widehat{i}-4\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k}

Thus the vector dot product of the 2 vectors is obtained as

\overrightarrow{v_{a}}\cdot \overrightarrow{v_{b}}=(\widehat{i}-2\widehat{j}+\widehat{k})\cdot (4\widehat{i}-4\widehat{j}+7\widehat{k})\\\\\overrightarrow{v_{a}}\cdot \overrightarrow{v_{b}}=1\cdot 4+2\cdot 4+1\cdot 7=19

Part 2)

Given vector A' as

\overrightarrow{v_{a'}}=2\widehat{i}+3\widehat{j}+6\widehat{k}

Similarly vector B' is written as

\overrightarrow{v_{b'}}=\widehat{i}+5\widehat{j}+3\widehat{k}

Thus the vector dot product of the 2 vectors is obtained as

\overrightarrow{v_{b'}}\cdot \overrightarrow{v_{a'}}=(\widehat{i}+5\widehat{j}+3\widehat{k})\cdot (2\widehat{i}+3\widehat{j}+6\widehat{k})\\\\\overrightarrow{v_{a'}}\cdot \overrightarrow{v_{b'}}=1\cdot 2+5\cdot 3+3\cdot 6=35
