8. Solve for a:p+q=2ab

1 answer:

8 0

$\text{Solve for a:}\\\\p+q=2ab\\\\\text{Since we want to solve for a, it needs to be by itself}\\\\\text{To do this, we have to divide both sides by 2b}\\\\\frac{p+q}{2b}=a\\\\\text{Now since A it's by itself, that'll be your answer}\\\\\boxed{\frac{p+q}{2b}=a}$

Is the GCF of two even numbers 2

lions [1.4K]

No, GCF means greatest common factor, meaning the largest number than can be divided into the number. 2 would be the lowest common factor or LCF.
EX. 200 & 440. In this case the GCF would be 40, but the LCF would be 2 because they are both even numbers

What is the following product? <br>(4x square root 5x^2 + 2^2 square root 6)^2

tangare [24]

The product is $104 x^{4}+16 \sqrt{30} x^{4}$

Explanation:

The given expression is $\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}$

We need to determine the product of the given expression.

First, we shall simplify the given expression.

Thus, we have,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=\left(4 x \sqrt{5} x+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^2$

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=\left(4 x^{2} \sqrt{5}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^2$

Expanding the expression, we have,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=\left(4 x^{2} \sqrt{5}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)\left(4 x^{2} \sqrt{5}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)$

Now, we shall apply FOIL, we get,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=\left(4 x^{2} \sqrt{5}\right)^{2}+2 ( 2 x^{2} \sqrt{6})(4 x^{2} \sqrt{5})+\left(2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}$

Simplifying the terms, we have,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=16 \cdot 5 x^{4}+16 \sqrt{30} x^{4}+4 \cdot 6 x^{4}$

Multiplying, we get,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=80 x^{4}+16 \sqrt{30} x^{4}+24 x^{4}$

Adding the like terms, we get,

$\left(4 x \sqrt{5 x^{2}}+2 x^{2} \sqrt{6}\right)^{2}=104 x^{4}+16 \sqrt{30} x^{4}$

Thus, the product of the given expression is $104 x^{4}+16 \sqrt{30} x^{4}$

Find the inverse of the function f(x) =x^2-5. Is the inverse a function?

Mariana [72]

Y=x^2-5, solve for x

y+5=x^2

x=√(y+5) so

f^-1(x)=√(y+5)

Write the equation of the perpendicular bisector of CD.

Luda [366]

You haven't provided the coordinates of C and D, therefore, I cannot provide an exact solution. However, I'll tell you how to solve this problem and you can apply on the coordinates you have.

The general form of the linear equation is:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

1- getting the slope:
We will start by getting the slope of CD using the formula:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
We know that the line we are looking for is perpendicular to CD. This meas that the product of their slopes is -1. Knowing this, and having calculated the slope of CD, we can simply get the slope of our line

2- getting the y-intercept:
To get the y-intercept, we will need a point that belongs to the line.
We know that our line passes through the midpoint of CD.
Therefore, we will first need to get the midpoint:
midpoint = ( $\frac{x1+x2}{2} , \frac{y1+y2}{2}$ )

Now, we will use this point along with the slope we have to substitute in the general equation and solve for c.

By this, we would have our equation in the form of:
y = mx + c

Hope this helps :)

A vegetable store sold 3 tons of vegetables less on the first day than on the second, and on the third day it sold 5/9 of the am

Ilya [14]

Let
x---------> <span>quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the first day
</span>y---------> quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the second day
z---------> quantity (ton) of vegetables sold the third day

we know that
x=y-3---------> equation 1
z=(5/9)*(x+y)------> equation 2
x+y+z=98-----> equation 3
substitute equation 2 in equation 3
x+y+[(5/9)*(x+y)]=98----> multiply by 9----> 9x+9y+5x+5y=882
14x+14y=882-----> equation 4

to resolve the equations system formed by
x=y-3
14x+14y=882

using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=30
y=33
x+y+z=98----> z=98-(x+y)----> z=98-63---> 35

the answer is
vegetables sold the first day----> 30 ton
vegetables sold the second day----> 33 ton
vegetables sold the third day------> 35 ton
