Answer:

more than one variable (two or more)

Explanation:

Literal equations are used to represent a known quantity/value using unknown values.

Now, if we have only one variable, then this variable will no longer be unknown as it will be equal to the known quantity. This means that the equation will not be literal.

Example:

Number of tickets is 25.

x = 25 where x is the number of tickets

If we have two variable, neither of them will be known. This means that the equation will be literal.

Example:

Number of apples added to number of bananas is 15.

x + y = 15

where x is the number of apples and y is the number of bananas, neither of them is known.

Based on the above, the literal equation must have more than one variable (two or more)

Hope this helps :)

Answer – Two or more variables (In other words, More than one variable)

In simple terms, literal equations are equations containing two or more variables; at least one independent variable and one dependent variable. In essence, all literal equations have more than one variable.

Find the partial fraction decomposition of the rational expression with prime quadratic factors in the denominator

SpyIntel [72]

$\dfrac{5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21}{(x-3)(x^2-2)^2}=\dfrac{a_1}{x-3}+\dfrac{a_2x+a_3}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{a_4x+a_5}{(x^2-2)^2}$
$\implies 5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=a_1(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(a_4x+a_5)(x-3)$

When $x=3$ , you're left with

$147=49a_1\implies a_1=\dfrac{147}{49}=3$

When $x=\sqrt2$ or $x=-\sqrt2$ , you're left with

$\begin{cases}17-8\sqrt2=(\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(\sqrt2-3)&\text{for }x=\sqrt2\\17+8\sqrt2=(-\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(-\sqrt2-3)\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}-5+\sqrt2=\sqrt2a_4+a_5\\-5-\sqrt2=-\sqrt2a_4+a_5\end{cases}$

Adding the two equations together gives $-10=2a_5$ , or $a_5=-5$ . Subtracting them gives $2\sqrt2=2\sqrt2a_4$ , $a_4=1$ .

Now, you have

$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(x-5)(x-3)$
$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3x^4-11x^2-8x+27+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$
$2x^4-7x^3-x^2+14x-6=(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$

By just examining the leading and lagging (first and last) terms that would be obtained by expanding the right side, and matching these with the terms on the left side, you would see that $a_2x^4=2x^4$ and $a_3(-3)(-2)=6a_3=-6$ . These alone tell you that you must have $a_2=2$ and $a_3=-1$ .

So the partial fraction decomposition is

$\dfrac3{x-3}+\dfrac{2x-1}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{x-5}{(x^2-2)^2}$

if a man travels at an average speed of 122km per hour how far will he travel in 3 hours and 45 minutes

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Convert 3h and 45 min to hours so it will be 3.9 hours

Then say:
Distance = speed ✖️time
= 122 km/h ✖️3.9h
=475.80 km
He will travel 475.80 km

Hope this helps ;)
