You probably are interested in expressing the given equation as a quadratic equation in u, as it will make it easy to find the solutions.
Let u = x²
So,
u² = x⁴
So, the given equation can be written as:
u² - 17u + 16 = 0
Now the equation is quadratic in u and the solutions can be calculated using quadratic formula or factorization.
Answer:
6%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
about 9.4 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance formula:
√(x1 - x2)² + (y2 - y1)²
Coordinates:
A (4, 2)
B (9, 10)
Let's make 9 = x1
Let's make 4 = x2
Let's make 10 = y1
Let's make 2 = y2
Substitute into the distance formula:
√(x1 - x2)² + (y2 - y1)²
√(9 - 4)² + (2 - 10)²
Solve:
√(9 - 4)² + (2 - 10)²
√(5)² + (-8)²
√25 + 64
√89
≈ 9.4
Therefore, the length of AB is approximately 9.4 units.
No this cannot be written into a fraction there for it is a non- rational number. hope i helped :))
With what, just put your question in the text box
