Help and what does a = with a line through it mean ?

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

given

\frac{x8x^2-8}{4x+4} , x ≠ - 1

The x ≠ - 1 means that x cannot take the value of - 1 as this would make the denominator equal to zero which would make the fraction undefined.

Factor the numerator/ denominator

8x² - 8 = 8(x² - 1) ← factor out 8 from both terms

x² - 1 ← is a difference of squares, hence

8x² - 8 = 8(x - 1)(x + 1)

4x + 4 = 4(x + 1) ← factor out 4 from both terms

Thus the fraction now simplifies to

\frac{8(x-1)(x+1)}{4(x+1)}

Cancel the 8 and 4 by 4 and cancel the factor (x + 1), leaving

=  2(x - 1) = 2x - 2 ← in the form ax + b

△ABC is a right triangle. m∠A = 32° m∠B=90°; AC = 9 and AB=5. Choose the expression used to find BC?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the right angle triangle is shown in the attached photo.

From the given right angle triangle,

AC represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

With m∠32 as the reference angle,

BC represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

AB represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine BC, we would apply

the Sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Sin θ= opposite side/hypotenuse. Therefore, the expression used to find BC is

Sin 32 = BC/9

BC = 9Sin32
