Theories on dividing by "0". I think its infinity what about you?

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!


Answer:  The quotient is not a number at all. It's simply undefined.


Discussion:

Consider the numbers "a" and "b" and further suppose that

a/0 = b

Multiplying both sides by 0 gives

(a/0) * 0 = b * 0

Cancelling the highlighted 0s gives a = 0!. Something is wrong here as  "a" is not equal to zero!  The error was produced by assuming the divison by 0 yield a number.


You will encounter this "divide by zero" matter several times in a Calculus courses.


Regards, MrB

Hello may i please have help with this question
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

x=√139-3, x=-√139-3

Step-by-step explanation:

to complete the square, you first move the constant to the other side of the equation-its already done for you!

now, you find the perfect square trinomial. You divide the b value by 2, then square it: 6/2=3, 3^2=9.

What you do to one side has to be done with the other.

x^2+6x+9=130+9

now you can factor the square:

(x+3)^2=139

squareroot both sides:

x+3=√139

x+3=-√139

now subtract both sides by 3

x=√139-3

x=-√139-3

Find the distance between the lines<br> Y=3x+10<br> Y=3x-20<br> AND <br> Y=3/2x+3/2<br> Y=3/2x-5
rosijanka [135]
At first we need to know how to find the distance between two parallel lines
The parallel lines which have the same slope 
If we have two parallel lines ⇒ y₁ = mx + c₁   and    y₂ = mx + c₂
So, the distance between y₁ and y₂ = d = \frac{|c_{1} - c_{2}|}{\sqrt{1 + m^{2}}}
========================================================

Part (1):
=======

<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
<span> Y₁ = 3x + 10    and       Y₂ = 3x - 20</span>
∴ m = 3  , c₁ = 10  and  c₂ = -20
∴ d = \frac{| 10 - (-20)|}{\sqrt{1 + 3^{2}}}= \framebox{9.5}

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

Part (2):
=======

<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
Y₁ = <span>3/2 x + 3/2</span>    and       Y₂ = <span>3/2 x - 5</span>
∴ m = 3/2 = 1.5  , c₁ = 3/2 = 1.5   and  c₂ = -5
∴ d = \frac{| 1.5- (-5)|}{\sqrt{1 + 1.5^{2}}}= \framebox{3.6}
