-(-2)^4 = 16
The - sign multiplies inside the bracket to a positive, 2^4 = 16
Given :-
- a² - 2a - b² = 0
- 2b + 2ab = 0
To find :-
Solution :-
<u>Taking</u><u> </u><u>second</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
- 2b + 2ab = 0
- 2b ( 1 + a ) = 0
- 2b = 0 or (1+a) = 0
- b = 0 , a = -1
<u>Substitute</u><u> </u><u>in </u><u>first </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
<u>When </u><u>b </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>,</u>
- a² - 2a - 0² = 0
- a² - a = 0
- a( a -1) =0
- a = 0 , 1
<u>When </u><u>a </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>,</u>
- (-1)² - 2*(-1) - b² = 0
- 1 + 2 - b² = 0
- b² = 3
- b = ±√3
<u>Answer </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
- a = 0,1 ; b = 0
- a = -1 , b = ±√3
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the question is asking for the difference between the two values, therfore, you should subtract the smaller value from the larger value
while A is technically the same equation, when finding a value, you want all the constants to be on 1 side of the equation while the variable is on the other side
