Given

x^5*k=a .................(1)

x^2*k=b .................(2)

We need to find x^3.

Solution:

On inspection, we note that (1)/(2) gives x^3 on the left hand side, but the division is valid on conditions that x ≠ 0 and k ≠ 0.

So we conclude:

(1) / (2)

\frac{x^5*k}{x^2*k^2} = \frac{a}{b}

=>

\frac{x^3}{k} = \frac{a}{b}

=>

x^3= \frac{ak}{b} on condition that x\ne{0} and k\ne{0}

Remark.

The easiest way to do this is simply to leave the givens alone and divide. Parts of it will cancel out. You can't always do this, but this question is an example of leaving things be.

Step One

Divide the two expressions

\dfrac{x^5*k}{x^2*k^2} = \dfrac{a}{b}

Now you use the index laws to get what you need. Forget the ks on the left for a second and just work with the xs.

\dfrac{x^{5-2} * k}{k^{2}} = \dfrac{a}{b}

The law of indices says that it you want to bring the power of the same base to the numerator, you write the base in the numerator, and subtract the power that was in the denominator from the power in the numerator. x^(5 - 2) in this case.

Step Two

Next deal with the ks.

The same law applies for the ks. You subtract the power shown in the numerator from the power of the k in the denominator, in this case 1/k^(2 - 1)

\dfrac{x^3}{k^{2 - 1}} = \dfrac{a}{b}\\ \\ \dfrac{x^3}{k} = \dfrac{a}{b}

Step Three

The last step is to multiply both sides by k

\dfrac{x^3 * k}{k} = \dfrac{k*a}{b}

Giving as your final answer

x^{3} = \dfrac{ka}{b}

SOLUTION

From the given value

Since

\sin u=\frac{7}{25}

Then using trigonometrical ratios it follows

\cos u=\frac{24}{25}

Using hal -ngle it folows

\begin{gathered} sin(\frac{u}{2})=\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{24}{25}}{2}} \\ s\imaginaryI n(\frac{u}{2})=\sqrt{\frac{1}{50}} \end{gathered}

Also

\begin{gathered} cos(\frac{u}{2})=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{24}{25}}{2}} \\ cos(\frac{u}{2})=\sqrt{\frac{49}{50}} \\ cos(\frac{u}{2})=7\sqrt{\frac{1}{50}} \end{gathered}

Finally?

\begin{gathered} \tan(\frac{u}{2})=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{24}{25}}{1+\frac{24}{25}}} \\ \tan(\frac{u}{2})=\sqrt{\frac{1}{49}} \\ \tan(\frac{u}{2})=\frac{1}{7} \end{gathered}

Find an equation for the nth term in the following sequence:<br> 2, 8, 32, 128, 512...
seraphim [82]

Answer:

a_n = 2(4) ^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence shown matches that of a geometric sequence of radius 4. To prove it, divide the term \frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n} and check that \frac{a_{n + 1}}{a_n}=4

Then the formula that represents this sequence is:

a_n = a_1(r)^{n-1}

Where a_1 is the first term of the series = 2 and r is the radius of convergence = 4.

Then the equation is:

a_n = 2(4) ^{n-1}

Solve for k.<br> 5(k+4)&lt;–5
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

k < -5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(k+4)<–5

Divide each side by 5

5/5(k+4)<–5/5

k+4 < -1

Subtract 4 from each side

k+4-4 < -1-4

k < -5
