What is the solution to the following equation? (5x-2)^2=10

Mathematics
1 answer:
GaryK [48]3 years ago
7 0
Take the square root of both sides to get rid of parenthasees, remember to get the positive and negative root
5x-2=+/-√10
add 2 to both sides
5x=2+/-√10
divide by 5
x=\frac{2+/- \sqrt{10} }{y}

x= \frac{2+ \sqrt{10} }{y} or \frac{2- \sqrt{10} }{y}

aprox
x=1.03246 or -0.232456

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.

The rectangle shown has an area of (y^2+8y+15)m^2 what is the <br> width of the rectangle
Free_Kalibri [48]
If the dimensions are "nice" factors of the quadratic, and if y > -3, we have
.. area = (y +3)(y +5)

y+5 is greater than y +3, so we take the width to be ....
.. width = y+3

Which set does not contain –3?
svet-max [94.6K]
A real number is any number that is rational, including integers and natural numbers. A rational number is any number that can be written as a ratio or isn't a square root of a number. An integer is any whole number (not including fractions) that exists, negative or positive. A whole number is the same as an integer except it only includes positive numbers. 
Since a set of whole numbers wouldn't be able to include any negative numbers, your answer would be your fourth option. 
Hope this helped you out! :-)
