The sum of two numbers is 8, and their product is 80.

1 answer:

6 0

From their sum, the numbers are ' x ' and ' 8 - x ' .

From their product, x(8 - x) = 80 .

When you massage and manipulate this equation into the standard
quadratic form, you have

 x² - 8x + 80 = 0 .

Applying the quadratic formula to tease out the solutions of this equation,
we find that they are

  x = 4 + 64 i
and
  x = 4 - 64 i

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? StartFraction 1 Over x EndFraction minus StartFraction 1 Over

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that fraction

$\frac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}$

We have to find the expression which is equivalent to given fraction .

$\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}=\frac{y-x}{xy}$

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{x+y}{xy}$

Substitute the values then, we get

$\frac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}$

We know that

$\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{x}{y}}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{y}{x}$

Using the property then, we get

$\frac{y-x}{xy}\times \frac{xy}{x+y}$

$\frac{y-x}{x+y}$

This is required expression which is equivalent to given expression.

In 2009 the number of vehicle sales in the United States was 10,002 thousand and in 2013 it was 17,884 thousand.a. [3 pts] Deter

anygoal [31]

Answer:

1970.5 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vehicle sales in 2009 = 10,002 thousand

Vehicle sales in 2013 = 17,884 thousand

Required

Determine the average rate of change;

From the given parameters, it can be seen that the number of vehicles is a function of year

Let x represent the years and y represent the number of vehicles;

Such that;

$x_1 = 2009;\ y_1 = 10,002$

$x_2 = 2013;\ y_2 = 17,884$

The rate of change is calculate as follows;

$m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}$

$m = \frac{10002 - 17884}{2009 - 2013}$

$m = \frac{-7882}{-4}$

$m = 1970.5$

Hence, the average rate of change is 1970.5 thousand

What are the rate of changes for

astraxan [27]

39 & 16.5 = -22.5
30 & 12.4 = -17.6
28 & 10.4 = -17.6
19 & 10.3 = -8.7
23 & 11.2 = -11.8
if the values are y values you will subtract them from each other to get the numerical value and because they all go from a larger number to a smaller number the rate is a negative. if they were from a smaller value to a larger value teh rates of change would be positive.

Two angles of a triangle measure 22 and 53 what is the measure of the third angle

Musya8 [376]

The third angle is 105.
How do I know this?
Add 22 and 53:
22 + 53 = 75
All interior angles on a triangle should add up to 180.
Subtract 75 from 180:
180 - 75 = 105
105 is our answer.
Hope this helps! =)
