X^2-5x-14

x^2+2x-7x-14

x(x+2)-7(x+2)

(x-7)(x+2)

So (x-7) and (x+2) are factors of x^2-5x-14

Find the value of x.

melisa1 [442]

To find the value of X, simply know that for this parallelogram, the angles on each end that are diagonal with respect to each other are the same. And knowing that the angles in a parallelogram add up to equal 360 degrees. Simply make an algebraic expression equal to the value of 360 and then solve for x.

X + X + (X - 26) + (X - 26) = 360
2X + X - 26 + X - 26 = 360
4X - 52 = 360
4x = 412
X = 103.

The value for X, I believe would be 103 degrees. You can verify this by plugging in the value into both expressions, X and X-26 and see that if adding all the expressions together does it equal 360 degrees.

Consider the following differential equation. x^2y' + xy = 3 (a) Show that every member of the family of functions y = (3ln(x) +

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Verified

$y(x) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3}{x}$

$y(x) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3 - 3Ln(3)}{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:-

- We are given the following non-homogeneous ODE as follows:

$x^2y' +xy = 3$

- A general solution to the above ODE is also given as:

$y = \frac{3Ln(x) + C }{x}$

- We are to prove that every member of the family of curves defined by the above given function ( y ) is indeed a solution to the given ODE.

Solution:-

- To determine the validity of the solution we will first compute the first derivative of the given function ( y ) as follows. Apply the quotient rule.

$y' = \frac{\frac{d}{dx}( 3Ln(x) + C ) . x - ( 3Ln(x) + C ) . \frac{d}{dx} (x) }{x^2} \\\\y' = \frac{\frac{3}{x}.x - ( 3Ln(x) + C ).(1)}{x^2} \\\\y' = - \frac{3Ln(x) + C - 3}{x^2}$

- Now we will plug in the evaluated first derivative ( y' ) and function ( y ) into the given ODE and prove that right hand side is equal to the left hand side of the equality as follows:

$-\frac{3Ln(x) + C - 3}{x^2}.x^2 + \frac{3Ln(x) + C}{x}.x = 3\\\\-3Ln(x) - C + 3 + 3Ln(x) + C= 3\\\\3 = 3$

- The equality holds true for all values of " C "; hence, the function ( y ) is the general solution to the given ODE.

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (1) = 3. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

$y( 1 ) = \frac{3Ln(1) + C }{1} = 3\\\\0 + C = 3, C = 3$

- Therefore, the complete solution to the given ODE can be expressed as:

$y ( x ) = \frac{3Ln(x) + 3 }{x}$

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (3) = 1. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

$y(3) = \frac{3Ln(3) + C}{3} = 1\\\\y(3) = 3Ln(3) + C = 3\\\\C = 3 - 3Ln(3)$
