What is a grouping symbol?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

Algebraic grouping symbols parentheses, brackets, braces, radicals, and fraction lines show where a group starts and ends, and help to establish the order used to apply math operations. Terms inside a grouping symbol have to be operated upon before they can be acted upon by anything outside the grouping symbol.

Thanks for letting me help!!

A flagpole casts a shadow that is 85 feet long. Paul is 6 feet tall, and while standing next to the flagpole, casts a shadow tha

hammer [34]

Answer:

51m

Step-by-step explanation:

-Paul is 6ft, and has a 10ft shadow. The pole has a 85ft shadow:

-Using ratios:

$\frac{Height\ of \ object}{Height\ of \ shadow}$

Let h be the height of the flagpole:

$=>\frac{6}{10}=\frac{h}{85}\\\\h=\frac{6\times 85}{10}\\\\h=51$

Hence, the height of the pole is 51m

A^-1/[a^-1 - b^-1] + a^-1/[a^-1 + b^-1]

o-na [289]

$\dfrac{a^{-1}}{a^{-1}-b^{-1}}+\dfrac{a^{-1}}{a^{-1}+b^{-1}}=a^{-1}\left(\dfrac{a^{-1}+b^{-1}}{(a^{-1}-b^{-1})(a^{-1}+b^{-1})}+\dfrac{a^{-1}-b^{-1}}{(a^{-1}+b^{-1})(a^{-1}-b^{-1})}\right)$

$=a^{-1}\left(\dfrac{(a^{-1}+b^{-1})+(a^{-1}-b^{-1})}{a^{-2}-b^{-2}}\right)$

$=\dfrac{2a^{-2}}{a^{-2}-b^{-2}}$

$=\dfrac{2b^2}{b^2-a^2}$
