The answer is "C" a variable.

For example, if you have the equation 6x=47

You are trying to find the value of "x"

So x is unknown

Hope this helps!

X² – 3x-7<br> x+2<br> Divide the following using synthetic division
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

x-5+ \frac{3}{x+2}

Step-by-step explanation:

If x+2 is a factor, -2 is a zero. So we can put -2 in the left-hand corner of your synthetic division, bring the coefficients down so you'll have a set up like this:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

____________

1. bring down the 1:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

____________

       1

2. multiply that by -2 and enter the result underneath 3:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2

___________

       1

a. then, add through:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2

___________

       1     -5

3. Do the same for -5 (multiply by the zero -2), enter that underneath -7 and add through:

-2 |   1    -3    -7

             -2    10

___________

       1     -5    3

Now, reassign the coefficients to their x. Because we already factored out an x with the zero, the 1 is assigned to 'x' rather than back to 'x^{2}'. The '-5' will not have an x attached. '3' is your remainder and cannot be divided out any further, so it will be written as \frac{3}{x+2}. Finally, just put them back together to get x-5+\frac{3}{x+2}.

Hope this helped!

Proof that x^y + y^x &gt; 1 for all x,y &gt; 0 ...?
bekas [8.4K]
To prove this inequality we need to consider three cases. We need to see that the equation is symmetric and that switching the variables x and y does not change the equation.

Case 1: x >= 1, y >= 1

It is obvious that

 x^y >= 1, y^x >= 1
 x^y + y^x >= 2 > 1
 x^y + y^x > 1

Case 2: x >= 1, 0 < y < 1

 Considering the following sub-cases:

  - x = 1, x^y = 1
  - x > 1,

    Let x = 1 + n, where n > 0

    x^y = (1 + n)^y = f_n(y)

    By Taylor Expansion of f_e(y) around y = 0,

    x^y = f_n(0) + f_n'(0)/1!*y + f_n''(0)/2!*y^2 + ...
        = 1 + ln(1 + n)/1!*y + ln(1 + n)^2/2!*y^2 + ...

    Since ln(1 + n) > 0,

    x^y > 1

  Thus, we can say that x^y >= 1, and since y^x > 0.

  x^y + y^x > 1

  By symmetry, 0 < x < 1, y >= 1, also yields the same.

Case 3: 0 < x, y < 1

  We can prove this case by fixing one variable at a time and by invoking symmetry to prove the relation.

  Fixing the variable y, we can set the expression as a function,

  f(x) = x^y + y^x
  f'(x) = y*x^(y-1) + y^x*ln y 
  For all x > 0 and y > 0, it is obvious that
  f'(x) > 0.

  Hence, the function f(x) is increasing and hence the function f(x) would be at its minimum when x -> 0+ (this means close to zero but always greater than zero). 

  lim x->0+ f(x) = 0^y + y^0 = 0 + 1 = 1

  Thus, this tells us that 

  f(x) > 1.

  Fixing variable y, by symmetry also yields the same result: f(x) > 1.

  Hence, when x and y are varying, f(x) > 1 must also hold true.
    Thus, x^y + y^x > 1.

We have exhausted all the possible cases and shown that the relation holds true for all cases. Therefore, 

<span>  x^y + y^x > 1

I have to give credit to my colleague, Mikhael Glen Lataza for the wonderful solution.


I hope it has come to your help.
