Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4a^{4} - 5a² + 1 = 0

Use the substitution u = a², then equation is

4u²  - 5u + 1 = 0

Consider the product of the coefficient of the u² term and the constant term

product = 4 × 1 = 4 and sum = - 5

The factors are - 4 and - 1

Use these factors to split the u- term

4u² - 4u - u + 1 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

4u(u - 1) - 1(u - 1) = 0 ← factor out (u - 1) from each term

(u - 1)(4u - 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u - 1 = 0 ⇒ u = 1

4u - 1 = 0 ⇒ 4u = 1 ⇒ u = \frac{1}{4}

Convert u back into terms of a, that is

a² = 1 ⇒ a = ± 1

a² = \frac{1}{4} ⇒ a = ± \frac{1}{2}

Solutions are a = ± 1 , a = ± \frac{1}{2}

Calculate the measure of the arc PQ.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

arc PQ = 124°

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angle PRQ is half the measure of its intercepted arc PQ, so

arc PQ = 2 × 62° = 124°

What's the distributive property for 16+48
ella [17]
The distributive property is when you have, for example, 2(1+3), and you multiply the 2 by both terms and add them together. so 2(1+3) = 2(1) + 2(3) = 2 + 6 = 8.

so with 16 + 48, to show the distributive property, you could divide by any common factor of 16 and 48. some correct ways to do this are:

16 + 48 = 2(8 + 24)
16 + 48 = 4(4 + 12)
16 + 48 = 8(2 + 6)
16 + 48 = 16(1 + 3)

you're just dividing 16 and 48 by the outside term to get the 2 numbers in the ( )
