Express p in terms of q if

Mathematics
1 answer:
Irina-Kira [14]2 years ago

p=x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}\\\\p=\dfrac{x^4}{x^2}+\dfrac{1}{x^2}\\\\p=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}\qquad(*)

q=x+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\q=\dfrac{x^2}{x}+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\q=\dfrac{x^2+1}{x}\qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\q^2=\left(\dfrac{x^2+1}{x}\right)^2\\\\q^2=\dfrac{(x^2+1)^2}{x^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\q^2=\dfrac{(x^2)^2+2(x^2)(1)+1^2}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+2x^2+1}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}+\dfrac{2x^2}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}+2\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\q^2-2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}\\\\\text{From (*) we have}\\\\\boxed{p=q^2-2}

Find the x-intercept of the function f(x) = a^x + 1 - 1.
babymother [125]

I am not certain of what you wrote for the function but will assume that is likely exponential function or quadratic function.

First, (quadratic function) To solve this, you must know the quadratic formula. The x-intercept is value(s) that has the output value(y) of 0.

If the vertex of the quadratic function of (0,0), there is only one x-intercept. The number and value of the x-intercept depends on the slope and vertical displacement.

Second, (exponential function) note that there is no x-intercept. For instance, if a is 2, is there such value y that 2^y is 0? The smallest exponential value that is an integer is 1. Even broadening the limit to rational numbers, no such exponential value can have the result of 0. Therefore, in the basic form of exponential function, there is no x-intercept.

4b - a if a=2 b=4 find its answer
romanna [79]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

if b=4 and a=2, then you substitute both those values into the equation, turning (4b - a) into (4*4 - 2), then you use order of operations, meaning you multiply the 4 times the 4, which turns it into 16-2, and then subtract 2 to finally reach your answer of 14.
