Answer:

The value of m is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equation,

x^4-(3m+2)x^2+m^2=0

x^4+0x^3-(3m+2)x^2+0x+m^2=0

Let the roots of the equation are a-3b, a-b, a+b and a + 3b, ( they must be form an AP )

Thus, we can write,

a-3b+a-b+a+b+a+3b=\frac{\text{coefficient of }x^3}{\text{coefficient of }x^4}

=\frac{0}{1}=0

\implies a=0----(1)

(-3b)(-b)+(-b)(b)+(b)(3b)+(3b)(-3b)+(-b)(3b)+(-3b)(b)=\frac{\text{coefficient of }x^2}{\text{coefficient of }x^4}}

=\frac{-3m-2}{1}

3b^2-b^2+3b^2-9b^2-3b^2-3b^2=-3m-2

-10b^2=-3m-2

\implies b^2=\frac{3m+2}{10}-----(2)

(-3b)(-b)(b)(3b)=\frac{\text{Constant term}}{\text{coefficient of}x^4}= m^2

9b^4=m^2

9(\frac{3m+2}{10})^2=m^2

9(\frac{9m^2+4+12m}{100})=m^2

81m^2+36+108m=100m^2

-19m^2+108m+36=0

19m^2-108m-36=0

19m^2-114m+6m-36=0

19m(m-6)+6(m-6)=0

(19m+6)(m-6)=0

\implies m=-\frac{6}{19}\text{ or }m=6

But m > 0,

Hence, the value of m is 6.

Solve for s in terms of t, u, and v.<br> U = tsv<br> s=
Sonja [21]

Answer:

s = u/tv

Step-by-step explanation:

To make s the subject of the formula in the equation of; u = tsv

,just divide both sides by (tv)...in which on the right hand side...it will cancel out t and v,hence leaving only s and then only the left hand side..it will give you your answer;

; u = tsv

; u/tv = tsv/tv

; s = u/tv

Can someone do 15?!?!?
andrew-mc [135]

<u>Given</u>:

The given triangle is a right triangle.

The length of the hypotenuse is 31 units.

The length of the leg is 23 units.

One of the angle is x.

We need to determine the value of x.

<u>Value of x:</u>

The value of x can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

sin \ \theta=\frac{opp}{hyp}

Substituting \theta=x, the side opposite to the angle x measures 23 units and the hypotenuse is 31.

Thus, we have;

sin \ x=\frac{23}{31}

Dividing, we get;

sin \ x=0.74

Taking sin ^{-1} on both sides of the equation, we get;

x=sin^{-1}(0.74)

x=47.7

Rounding off to the nearest whole integer, we get;

x=48

Thus, the value of x is 48°

Hence, Option c is the correct answer.

Please help, I’m struggling
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

49.5 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is   A = (height) X (base) / 2

So if you plug in the numbers you get:

806.9 = (32.6) X (base) / 2

1613.8 = (32.6) X (base)

1613.8 / 32.6 = base

base =  49.5 mi
