<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Ques 1)

x=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}}

Now we are asked to find the value of:

\sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}

We know that:

(\sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}})^2=x+\dfrac{1}{x}-2

Also:

x=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}} could be written as:

x=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{3})^2-(\sqrt{2})^2}

since, we know that:

(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2

Hence,

x=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}}{3-2}\\\\\\x=\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}

Also,

\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}

Hence, we get:

(\sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}})^2=\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2}-2\\\\\\(\sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}})^2=2\sqrt{3}-2\\\\\\\sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}=\sqrt{2\sqrt{3}-2}

Hence,

       \sqrt{x}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x}}=\sqrt{2\sqrt{3}-2}

Ques 2)

x=\dfrac{\sqrt{a+2b}+\sqrt{a-2b}}{\sqrt{a+2b}-\sqrt{a-2b}}

on multiplying and dividing by conjugate of denominator we get:

x=\dfrac{\sqrt{a+2b}+\sqrt{a-2b}}{\sqrt{a+2b}-\sqrt{a-2b}}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{a+2b}+\sqrt{a-2b}}{\sqrt{a+2b}+\sqrt{a-2b}}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{(\sqrt{a+2b}+\sqrt{a-2b})^2}{(\sqrt{a+2b})^2-(\sqrt{a-2b})^2}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{(\sqrt{a+2b})^2+(\sqrt{a-2b})^2+2\sqrt{a+2b}\sqrt{a-2b}}{a+2b-a+2b}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{a+2b+a-2b+2\sqrt{a+2b}\sqrt{a-2b}}{4b}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{2a+2\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{4b}\\\\\\x^2=(\dfrac{2a+2\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{4b})^2\\\\\\x^2=\dfrac{(2a+2\sqrt{a^2-4b^2})^2}{16b^2}

Hence, we have:

x^2=\dfrac{4a^2+4(a^2-4b^2)+8a\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{16b^2}\\\\\\x^2=\dfrac{4a^2+4a^2-16b^2+8a\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{16b^2}\\\\\\\\x^2=\dfrac{8a^2-16b^2+8a\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{16b^2}\\\\\\bx^2=\dfrac{8a^2-16b^2+8a\sqrt{a^2-4b^2}}{16b}\\\\\\bx^2=\dfrac{8a(a+\sqrt{a^2-4b^2})-16b^2}{16b}\\\\\\bx^2=\dfrac{8a(a+\sqrt{a^2-4b^2})}{16b}-\dfrac{16b^2}{16b}\\\\\\bx^2=\dfrac{a(a+\sqrt{a^2-4b^2})}{2b}-b\\\\\\bx^2=ax-b\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\bx^2-ax+b=0

A roped-off area of width x is created around a 30- by 10-foot rectangular museum display of Native American artifacts. The comb
Monica [59]

Answer: 4x^{2}+80x-500=0

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that:

-  The roped-off area whose width is represented with <em>x,</em> it is created around  a rectangular museum.

- The dimensions of the rectangular museum are: 30 ft by 10 ft.

- The combined area of the display and the roped-off area is 800 ft².

2. The area of the rectangular museum can be calculated with:

A=l*w

Where l is the lenght and w is the width.

You have that the lenght and the width in feet are:

l=30\\w=10

3. Let's call x the width of the roped-off area. Then, the combined area is:

A_c=l_c*w_c

Where

A_c=800

l_c=l+x+x=30+2x

w_c=w+x+x=10+2x

4. Substitute values and simplify. Then:

 800=(30+2x)(10+2x)

800=300+60x+20x+4x^{2}\\4x^{2}+80x-500=0
