Mathematics

Harman [31]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5X - 16 = 8x - 3​

add 5x on both sides

⇒ -5X - 16+5x= 8x -3 + 5x    

⇒ -16 = 13x -3

add 3 on both sides

⇒-16 + 3 = 13x -3 +3

⇒ -13 = 13x

divide both sides by 13

⇒ -13/13 =13x/13

∴ -1 = x

Find a quadratic equation with roots -1, 4i and -1 - 4i
vazorg [7]
\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\\\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
x=-1+4i\implies &x+1-4i=0\\
x=-1-4i\implies &x+1+4i=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(x+1-4i)(x+1+4i)=\stackrel{y}{0}
\\\\\\\
[(x+1)~~-~~(4i)][(x+1)~~+~~(4i)]=y
\\\\\\\
[(x+1)^2~~-~~(4i)^2]=0\implies (x^2+2x+1)~-~(4^2i^2)=y
\\\\\\
(x^2+2x+1)~-~(16\cdot -1)=y\implies (x^2+2x+1)~-~(-16)=y
\\\\\\
x^2+2x+1~~+16=y\implies x^2+2x+17=y

find the smaller of 2 consecutive integers,x, if the sum of the smaller and 6 times the larger is -29
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:-  The smaller integer is -5.


Explanation:-

Let the first consecutive integer be x and the second consecutive integer be x+1.

According to the given question:-

x+6(x+1)= -29

⇒x+6x+6= -29   [distributive law]

⇒x+6x= -29-6    [subtract 6 on the both sides]

⇒7x= -35      [combining like terms ]

⇒x= -5          [dividing 7 on both sides]

Thus the smaller integer =x= -5

larger integer =x+1= -5+1= -4
