Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-\dfrac{5}{4}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{5}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

16y^2-25=0\\\\METHOD\ 1:\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\16=4^2\ \text{and}\ 25=5^2\ \text{therefore we have}\\\\4^2y^2-5^2=0\\\\(4y)^2-5^2=0\\\\(4y-5)(4y+5)+0\iff4y-5=0\ \vee\ 4y+5=0\\\\4y-5=0\qquad\text{add 5 to both sides}\\4y=5\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\boxed{y=\dfrac{5}{4}}\\\\4y+5=0\qquad\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\4y=-5\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{5}{4}}

METHOD\ 2:\\\\16y^2-25=0\qquad\text{add 25 to both sides}\\\\16y^2=25\qquad\text{divide both sides by 16}\\\\y^2=\dfrac{25}{16}\to y=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{25}{26}}\\\\y=-\dfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{16}}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{\sqrt{25}}{\sqrt{16}}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{5}{4}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{5}{4}}

Answer:

The value of y is 5/4 or -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

16y² - 25 = 0

This is a quadratic equation in y

16y² = 25  

(4y)² = 5²  

Taking square root on both the sides yields;

√(4y)² = √5²  

4y = ± 5

Dividing both sides by 4 yields; y =5/4 or y= -5/4

ZP bisects ∠OZQ so that ∠OZP = 8x – 9 and ∠PZQ = 5x + 18. Find the value of x, and the measure of each angle. You must show all
Assoli18 [71]
<span>x = 9 Since ZP bisects â OZQ, that means that the measurements for â OZP and â PZQ are the same. So create an equation with their respective values set to each other. 8x - 9 = 5x + 18 Now solve for x 8x - 9 = 5x + 18 Subtract 5x from both sides 3x - 9 = 18 Add 9 to both sides 3x = 27 Divide both sides by 3 x = 9</span>

If f(x) is an even function and (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), which reason explains why (–6, 8) must also be a
ch4aika [34]

Definition: A function is "even" when f(x) = f(−x) for all x.

Geometrically speaking, the graph face of an even function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, meaning that its graph remains unchanged after reflection about the y-axis.

If point (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), then f(6)=8 and since function is even, you can state that f(-6)=f(6)=8. This means that point (-6,8) must also be a point on the graph. Geometrically it means that the output of a negative x-value and its opposite is the same.

Answer: correct choice is A.

A line has a slope of -2/5. Generate the coordinates of two points that would lie on the same line
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Many solutions are possible. One example is (10,5) and (5,7).

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the distance between points represented as a ratio of vertical to horizontal distances. It is a difference or subtraction. To find two points work backwards. What two points have y values with a distance of -2?

5-7=-2

So the points are (x,5) and (x,7).

Now what x values have a distance of 5?

10-5 = 5

So the points are (10,5) and (5,7).
