Notice that both A and B are multiplied by (1/2).
Thus, the given expression can be re-written as [(1/2)(A+B)]^2.
Square the (1/2) and the (A+B) separately, and then multiply together the resulting squares:
(1/4)(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)
11/8 or 13/8 is the answer.
Answer:
The water level is rising because it is filling 10 more liters than it is draining
16.7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
