Use the difference of 2 squares (a - b)(a + b) = a^2 - b^2:-
(x - 1/x)(x + 1/x) = x^2 - (1/x)^2
= x^2 - 1/x^2
(x ^2 - 1/x^2)(x^2 + 1 /x^2)
= x^4 - 1/x^4
(x^4 - 1/x^4)(x^4 + 1/x^4)
= x^8 - 1 /x^8 Answer
You add 8 and 5 so the equation would be 8+5=13
Answer:
x = 2 x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
2 (x+2) ^2-4=28
Add 4 to each side
2 (x+2) ^2-4+4=28+4
2 (x+2) ^2= 32
Divide by 2
2/2 (x+2) ^2=32/2
(x+2)^2 = 16
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x+2)^2) =±sqrt( 16)
x+2 = ±4
Subtract 2 from each side
x+2-2 = -2±4
x = -2±4
x = -2+4 and x = -2-4
x = 2 x = -6
Answer:
QS = 17 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
R located at QS
QR = 10
RS = 7
Find:
Measure of QS
Computation:
QS = QR + RS
QS = 10 + 7
QS = 17 units
