Given, (9x - 4)(9x + 4) = ax² - b
From algebraic identities:
We know, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²
Now, 81x² + 36x - 36x - 16 = ax² - b
81x² - 16 = axis² - b
So ax² = 81x²
a = 81
-b = -16
b = 16
Solution
Therefore, the value of a is 81.

Well I don't know.
Let's think about it:
-- There are 6 possibilities for each role.
So 36 possibilities for 2 rolls.
Doesn't take us anywhere.
New direction:
-- If the first roll is odd, then you need another odd on the second one.
-- If the first roll is even, then you need another even on the second one.
This may be the key, right here !
-- The die has 3 odds and 3 evens.
-- Probability of an odd followed by another odd = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
-- Probability of an even followed by another even = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
I'm sure this is it. I'm a little shaky on how to combine those 2 probs.
Ah hah !
Try this:
Probability of either 1 sequence or the other one is (1/4) + (1/4) = 1/2 .
That means ... Regardless of what the first roll is, the probability of
the second roll matching it in oddness or evenness is 1/2 .
So the probability of 2 rolls that sum to an even number is 1/2 = 50% .
Is this reasonable, or sleazy ?
Answer:
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles will be congruent when corresponding sides are congruent. __
We already have ...
KL ≅ NP . . . = 15 mm
JL ≅ MP . . . = 22 mm
So, we need ...
JK ≅ MN
4y +12 = 32 . . . . substitute given values
This will be the case when ...
4y = 20 . . . . . subtract 12
y = 5 . . . . . . . divide by 4
The value of y that makes the triangles congruent is 5.
All linear functions have in common...
1. Their highest exponent is 1.
2. The graphs of the equations are lines.
When finding things in common between different types of functions, you always have to look at the two sides of math; geometry and algebra. Geometry is all the graphs, and algebra is the equations.
I hope this helps!
