In the expansion (ax+by)^7, the coefficients of the first two terms are 128 and -224, respectively. Find the values of a and b

madam [21]

Answer:

a = 2, b = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding $(ax+by)^7$ using Binomial expansion, we have that:

$(ax+by)^7$ =

$(ax)^7(by)^0 + (ax)^6(by)^1 + (ax)^5(by)^2 + (ax)^4(by)^3 + (ax)^3(by)^4 + (ax)^2(by)^5 + (ax)^1(by)^6 + (ax)^0(by)^7$

$= (a)^7(x)^7+ (a)^6(x)^6(b)(y) + (a)^5(x)^5(b)^2(y)^2 + (a)^4(x)^4(b)^3(y)^3 + (a)^3(x)^3(b)^4(y)^4 + (a)^2(x)^2(b)^5(y)^5 + (a)(x)(b)^6(y)^6 + (b)^7(y)^7\\\\\\= (a)^7(x)^7+ (a)^6(b)(x)^6(y) + (a)^5(b)^2(x)^5(y)^2 + (a)^4(b)^3(x)^4(y)^3 + (a)^3(b)^4(x)^3(y)^4 + (a)^2(b)^5(x)^2(y)^5 + (a)(b)^6(x)(y)^6 + (b)^7(y)^7$

We have that the coefficients of the first two terms are 128 and -224.

For the first term:

=> $a^7 = 128$

=> $a = \sqrt[7]{128}\\ \\\\a = 2$

For the second term:

$a^6b = -224$

$b = \frac{-224}{a^6}$

$b = \frac{-224}{2^6} \\\\\\b = \frac{-224}{64} \\\\\\b = 3.5$

Therefore, a = 2, b = 3.5

Which shows the equation y – 4 = 2(x + 3) written in standard form? A. –2x + y = 10 B. –2x + y = 7 C. y = 2x + 7 D. y = 2x + 10

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

A. $-2x+y=10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation of a line is given as:

$y-4=2(x+3)$

The standard form of an equation of a line is of the form:

$Ax+By=C$ , where, A, B and C are constants.

Now, we have to rearrange the above equation in standard form.

$y-4=2(x+3)$

Distribute 2 to $x+3$ . This gives,

$y-4=2x+6$

Add 4 on both sides. This gives,

$y-4+4=2x+6+4\\y=2x+10$

Now, add -2x on both sides. This gives,

$y-2x=2x-2x+10\\y-2x=10$

Now, rearrange in standard form. This gives,

$-2x+y=10$

Therefore, the standard form is given as $-2x+y=10$
