Answer: a²+b² = -99/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given two equations, this equations will be solved simultaneously to get a² and b²
a³ - 3ab² = 47 ... 1
b³ - 3a² b = 52... 2
From 1, a(a² - 3b²) = 47...3
From 2, b(b² - 3a²) = 52... 4
Adding 3 and 4, we have;
a²+b²-3b²-3a² = 99 (note that a and b will no longer be part of the equations as they have been factored out)
a²+b²-(3b²+3a²) = 99
(a²+b²) -3(b²+a²)= 99
Taking the difference we have
- 2(a²+b²) = 99
a²+b² = -99/2
Answer:
2400 in^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Tyler asks for a fish tank for his birthday. The task he wants is a rectangular prism 20 inches long, 10 inches wide, and 12 inches tall. How much water will the fish tank hold?
the capacity of the tank can be determined by calculating the volume of the tank
volume of a prism = length x width x height
20 x 10 x 12 = 2400 in^3
C. 4x + y = 21
4(3) + 9 = 21
12 + 9 = 21
21 = 21
