What are the solutions to m2 – 9 = 0?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sati [7]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

m2-9=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Two solutions were found :

m = 3

m = -3

 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :

1.1      Factoring:  m2-9  

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 9 is the square of 3

Check :  m2  is the square of  m1  

Factorization is :      (m + 3)  •  (m - 3)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (m + 3) • (m - 3)  = 0  

Step  2  :

Theory - Roots of a product :

2.1    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    m+3 = 0  

Subtract  3  from both sides of the equation :  

                     m = -3

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.3      Solve  :    m-3 = 0  

Add  3  to both sides of the equation :  

                     m = 3

puteri [66]

Answer: Option E. 22

Solution:

Each dot represents a different brand of chocolate, then to determine how many brands are included in this data set, we only have to count the number of dots: 1+4+3+5+2+3+2+1+1=22

What is the code? Thank you! Whoever answers this, I will give brainliest!
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

5821

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first symbol, the number is 5.

In the first problem, the digit corresponding to that symbol is 5.

In the second one, it should be 5. The area of a triangle is base * height / 2. The base is 15 and the height is 9. Therefore, the area will be 15 * 9 / 2 = 67.5 square units. Now, the number corresponding to that symbol is 5.

In the fourth problem, the number corresponding to the symbol is also 5.

For the second symbol, the number is 8.

In the 5th problem, the number corresponding to that symbol is 8.

In the 7th problem, the number corresponding to the symbol is 8.

In the last problem, 96 is the correct answer, and everything is in the right place. I assume this must be the mistake of the maker of the problem.

For the third symbol, the number is 2

In the 1st and 3rd problems, the number corresponding to that symbol is 2

Finally, for the last symbol, the number is 1

In the 4th problem, there is a trapezoid. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is base 1 * base 2 / 2 * height. base 1 = 29, base 2 = 13. 13 + 29 = 42. 42 / 2 = 21. 21 * 15 = 315. Now, the 2nd digit, the one corresponding to the symbol, is 1.

In the last problem, you need to find the surface area of a figure. I would do this by splitting it up. The area for a triangle is base * height / 2. That means, the area of the triangle would be 8 * 7 / 2 = 28. There are four identical triangles, so you multiply this by 4 and get 112. Next, you find the area of the square which is 7 * 7. 7 * 7 = 49. Now, you add them together. 112 + 49 = 161. Now, the first and last digits corresponding to the symbol are both 1.

The answer is 5821.
