For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: real number
Now we write the expression:
-8 / (x + 3)
The number x can be all real different from minus three.
Answer:
-8 / (x + 3)
With x different from -3.
Answer:
Commutative
Step-by-step explanation:
Identity equals adding 0
Associative means grouping diff. ways
Distributive is distributing into sections
Answer: <em>10.2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Use the Pythagorean Thoerem</em>
To solve for this, we need to multiply 55 balloons by 30 days to get the average total, and then the remainder.
(55 x 30) + 245 = 1895 total balloons to begin with.
Answer:
no real solution is the answer
If you have to list your extraneous solutions somewhere, that would be x=0.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cool thing here is the radical, the thing with the square root, is already isolate.
So we need to square both sides as a first step. (Whenever you raise both sides to even power, you must definitely check your solutions as some might not actually be solutions to the original equation)
So upon squaring both sides I get:
x^4+16=(x^2-4)^2
Now I will write (x^2-4)^2 as (x^2-4)(x^2-4) and foil it! This gives me:
x^4+16=x^4-8x^2+16
Subtract x^4 and 16 on both sides:
0=-8x^2
Divide both sides by -8
0=x^2
Therefore x=0.
0 isn't actually a solution though because when you plug it in you get 4=-4 which is not true.
