X^2 - 10x + 15 = 0
x^2 - 10x = -15
x^2 - 10x + 25 = -15 + 25
(x - 5)^2 = 10 <====
x - 5 = (+-)sqrt 10
x = 5 (+-) sqrt 10

solutions are :
x = 5 + sqrt 10 and x = 5 - sqrt 10

How do you simplify (2xy2)3

pantera1 [17]

$(2xy^{2})^{3} = (2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})$
Now, we can just multiply it and obtain the result
$(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})=(4x^{2}y^{4})(2xy^{2})=8x^{3}y^{6}$

I used law presented on this example
$2^{3}*2=2^{3}*2^{1}=2^{3+1}=2^{4}$

The general solution of 2 y ln(x)y' = (y^2 + 4)/x is

Sav [38]

Replace $y'$ with $\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}$ to see that this ODE is separable:

$2y\ln x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{y^2+4}x\implies\dfrac{2y}{y^2+4}\,\mathrm dy=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{x\ln x}$

Integrate both sides; on the left, set $u=y^2+4$ so that $\mathrm du=2y\,\mathrm dy$ ; on the right, set $v=\ln x$ so that $\mathrm dv=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}x$ . Then

$\displaystyle\int\frac{2y}{y^2+4}\,\mathrm dy=\int\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{x\ln x}\iff\int\frac{\mathrm du}u=\int\dfrac{\mathrm dv}v$

$\implies\ln|u|=\ln|v|+C$

$\implies\ln(y^2+4)=\ln|\ln x|+C$

$\implies y^2+4=e^{\ln|\ln x|+C}$

$\implies y^2=C|\ln x|-4$

$\implies y=\pm\sqrt{C|\ln x|-4}$
