Answer:

b = 3, which is an extraneous solution because if we replace b = 3 in the equation, we must be 5/0 and 30/0, and there is division by 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7}{b+3} + \frac{5}{b-3} = \frac{10b}{b^2-9}

The minus common multiply must be (b-3)*(b+3) = b² - 9

\frac{7*(b-3)}{b^2-9} + \frac{5*(b+3)}{b^2 -9}  = \frac{10b}{b^2-9}

7b - 21 + 5b + 15 = 10b

2b = 6

b = 3

Which is an extraneous solution because if we replace b = 3 in the equation, we must be 5/0 and 30/0, and there is division by 0. So this solution is invalid.

By the law of cosines, the angle C satisfies

8.77^2=2^2+9^2-2\times2\times9\times\cos C

which reduces to

\cos C=0.2246\implies C=\arccos(0.2246)\approx1.34422\text{ rad}

which converts to approximately 77 degrees (this can be done my multiplying by 180 and dividing by pi).

Answer:

value of 'm' equal to 5 will produce no solution as they'll be parallel lines

value of 'b' equal to 5 will produce no solution because it will be the same line
