<h3>Answer: a = 4, b = 2</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Multiply both sides by the denominator a+b*sqrt(7). Then expand out the RHS and get that RHS into the form p+q*sqrt(7), where p and q are algebraic expressions.

2+4*sqrt(7) = (4-sqrt(7))(a+b*sqrt(7))

2+4*sqrt(7) = 4(a+b*sqrt(7))-sqrt(7)*(a+b*sqrt(7))

2+4*sqrt(7) = 4a+4b*sqrt(7)-a*sqrt(7)-7b

2+4*sqrt(7) = (4a-7b)+(4b-a)*sqrt(7)

The (4a-7b) part on the RHS matches up with 2 on the LHS, so

2 = 4a-7b or 4a-7b = 2

Similarly, the (4b-a)*sqrt(7) on the RHS matches up with 4*sqrt(7)

So,

4*sqrt(7) = (4b-a)*sqrt(7)

4 = 4b-a

-a+4b = 4

--------------

We have this system of equations

4a-7b = 2 and -a+4b = 4

Let's solve the second equation for a

-a+4b = 4

4b = 4+a

4b-4 = a

a = 4b-4

Plug this into the first equation; solve for b.

4a - 7b = 2

4( a ) - 7b = 2

4(4b-4)-7b = 2

16b-16-7b = 2

9b-16 = 2

9b = 18

b = 2

From here, we can compute the value of 'a'

a = 4b-4

a = 4(2)-4

a = 4

Your method of rationalizing the denominator would work out, though it seems like it would involve more steps.

What is the solution to –4(8 – 3x) ≥ 6x – 8?
melisa1 [442]
-4(8-3x)≥6x-8
Expand the left side.
-32+12x≥6x-8
Add 32 to both sides
12x≥6x+24
Subtract 6x.
6x≥24
Divide both sides by 6.
x≥4

Answer: x ≥ 4
