Using the equation below as a model, fill in numbers in the place of a and b to create a rational equation that has an extraneou

s solution.
x plus a over ax = b over x

Part 1. Show all work to solve for x in the equation and check the solution.

Part 2. Explain how to identify the extraneous solution and what it means.

Lets solve the equation step by step:

(x + a)/ax = b/x

therefore: a != 0, x !=0

now we solve:

<span>(x + a)/ax = b/x
</span><span>(x + a)/a = b
</span>x + a = ab
x = a(b - 1)

that is the solution for b, and we keep in mind that <span>a != 0, x !=0, the extraneous solutions

The second hand of an analog clock completes an entire rotation in 60 seconds, and the length of the seconds hand is 8 inches. a
g100num [7]
Circumcerence = distance travelled in one full rotation = 2 x π x 8 = 16π

for 2 minutes and 15 seconds,
multiply 16π by 2.25 as 2 minutes is twice the distance of one rotation and 15 seconds is a quarter more

therefore answer is 36π = 113.1 inches

Given sin x=13/85 and tan x=13/84 .
olga55 [171]

ANSWER:

We know that,

  • tanΘ = sinΘ/cosΘ

cosΘ = sinΘ/tanΘ

So, cosΘ = 13/85 ÷ 13/84

  • 13/85 × 84/13
  • 84/85.
