Prove that for all admissible values of a, the value of the expression

Mathematics

solong [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The simplified value of given expression is 1, which is free from a, therefore the value of the expression does not depend on the variable a.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

(\frac{5}{a+1}-\frac{3}{a-1}+\frac{6}{a^2-1})\times \frac{a+1}{2}

(\frac{5(a-1)-3(a+1)+6}{a^2-1})\times \frac{a+1}{2}

(\frac{5a-5-3a-3+6}{a^2-1})\times \frac{a+1}{2}

(\frac{2a-2}{a^2-1})\times \frac{a+1}{2}

(\frac{2(a-1)}{(a-1)(a+1)})\times \frac{a+1}{2}

\frac{2(a-1)(a+1)}{2(a-1)(a+1)}

Cancel out the common factors.

\frac{2(a-1)(a+1)}{2(a-1)(a+1)}=1

Since the simplified value of given expression is 1, which is free from a, therefore the value of the expression does not depend on the variable a.

Find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that passes through the following point with the given slope. Simplify you
mariarad [96]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:   y = -34x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line slope-intercept is y = mx + b

So, first we use this equation (y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Now we substitute the values given

                                             ( y + 3) = -34 (x - 0)

Now, expand                          y + 3 = -34x + 0

Finally, clear y from the equation        

                                               y = -34x -3
