For this case we have the following expression:

$7a-2b = 5ab$

From here, we must clear the value of a.

We then have the following steps:

Place the terms that depend on a on the same side of the equation:

$7a - 5ab = 2b$

Do common factor "a":

$a (7 - 5b) = 2b$

Clear the value of "a" by dividing the factor within the parenthesis:

$a =\frac{2b}{7-5b}$

Answer:

The clear expression for "a" is given by:

$a =\frac{2b}{7-5b}$

Answer: The required value of a is $\dfrac{2b}{7-5b}.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following equation for the value of a:

$7a-2b=5ab~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Since there are two unknowns and only one equation , so the value of a will definitely contain the value of b.

The solution of equation (i) for a is as follows:

$7a-2b=5ab\\\\\Rightarrow 7a-5ab=2b\\\\\Rightarrow a(7-5b)=2b\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{2b}{7-5b}.$

Thus, the required value of a is $\dfrac{2b}{7-5b}.$

What pattern is represented by the polynomial ? 4x^2+12x+9 A. difference of two squares B. general trinomial C. perfect square t

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Option C - Perfect square trinomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Polynomial $4x^2+12x+9$

To find : What pattern is represented by the polynomial?

Solution :

First we make the polynomial in factor form,

Polynomial $4x^2+12x+9$

Since, it is not factor clearly so try to make the square.

Taking 4 common,

$=4(x^2+3x+\frac{9}{4})$

Identifying the x and y terms in the identity, $(x+y)^2=x^2+y^2+2xy$

$=4((x)^2+2\times x\times \frac{3}{2}+(\frac{3}{2})^2)$

Factor the perfect square trinomial,

$=4(x+\frac{3}{2})^2)$

Therefore, The pattern polynomial represent is perfect square trinomial.

So, Option C is correct.

Suppose that replacement times for washing machines are normally distributed with a mean of 9.3 years and a standard deviation o

Ad libitum [116K]

The probability will be found as follows:
z-score is given by:
z=(x-μ)/σ
where:
mean-μ=9.3
standard deviation-σ=1.1
but
σ/√n=1.1/√70=0.1315
thus the z-score will be:
z=(9.1-9.3)/0.1315
z=-1.5209
thus:
P(x<9.1)=P(z<-1.5209)=0.0643

You roll a number cube twice what is the probability of rolling a 2

Colt1911 [192]

The probability of getting a 5 from the first rolling is 1/6. The probability of getting an even number is 1/2 (= 1/6 (for a 2) + 1/6 (for a 4) + 1/6 (for a 6)). As the two rollings are independent, you can just multiply two probability values to come up with a final answer. That is, (1/6)·(1/2) = 1/12.

Note that I did not write this. This answer comes from Wyzant. I am only linking this to you so that you'll get the answer quickly.
