Mathematics

aliina [53]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

2a+ 2/a =4

Multiply each side by a to clear the fraction

a( 2a+ 2/a) =4*a

Distribute

2a^2 +2 = 4a

Subtract 4a from each side

2a^2 -4a +2 = 4a-4a

2a^2 -4a +2 =0

Divide by 2

2/2 a^2 -4a/2 +2/2 =0/2

a^2 -2a +1=0

Factor

(a-1) (a-1) =0

Using the zero product property

a=1

2a^2 -2/a^2

2(1)^2 -2/1^2

2-2

0

I solved this problem : 33 + 45 + 78 how could i check my answer?​
Vlad [161]

Step-by-step explanation:

So the answer for 33+45+78 is 156.

If you want to check that, you can use inverse operations, so subtract.

156-78=78. (Check 78)

78-45=33 (Check 45 and 33)

Well, now it's checked because we used all the factors of the equation!
