Answer:

The answer is x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to recall that the group law is not commutative in general, so we cannot assume it here. In order to solve the exercise we need to remember the axioms of group, specially the existence of the inverse element, i.e., for each element g\in G there exist another element, denoted by g^{-1} such that gg^{-1}=e, where e stands for the identity element of G.

So, given the equality axb=c we make a left multiplication by a^{-1} and we obtain:

a^{-1}axb =a^{-1}c.

But, a^{-1}axb = exb = xb. Hence, xb = a^{-1}c.

Now, in the equality xb = a^{-1}c we make a right multiplication by b^{-1}, and we obtain

xbb^{-1} = a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

Recall that bb^{-1}=e and xe=x. Therefore,

x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}.

The area of a square poster is 31 square inches. find the length of one side of the poster. Explain
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

5.57

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the are of a square you would use the equation <em>a²</em>. However, since you are finding the length of one side and its a square, you use the equation \sqrt{a}. The area of this square is 31 sq in., so you would replace a with 31. The equation then becomes \sqrt{31}<em>. </em>When out into a calculator, the answer is 5.567764... which rounded up to the nearest hundreth is 5.57.
