The answer is <span>a²=36

</span>\frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}
<span>Multiply both sides of the equation by 4a:
</span>4a*\frac{a}{4} =4a* \frac{9}{a}  \\ &#10;a*a=4*9 \\ &#10; a^{2} =36<span>

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The given expression : \frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a} then;

a^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression: \frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}

Cross multiplication the given expression following steps are as follow;

  • Multiply  numerator of the left-hand fraction by the denominator of the right-hand fraction
  • Also, Multiply numerator of the right-hand fraction by the denominator of the left-hand fraction.
  • then, set the two products equal to each other.

Using cross multiplication, on the given expression;

\frac{a}{4} = \frac{9}{a}

First multiply the numerator of the left hand fraction(i.e,a ) by the denominator of the right hand fraction (i,e a)

we have;

\frac{a \times a}{4} = 9

Simplify:

\frac{a^2}{4} =9                              [1]

now, multiply numerator of the right-hand fraction( i.e, 9) by the denominator of the left-hand fraction (i.e, 4 ) in [1]

we have;

a^2 = 9\times 4

Simplify:

a^2 = 36

Therefore, the given expression is equal to: a^2 = 36

How do you simplify that question? For algebra 1.

\left( \sqrt{x^{-3}} \right)^5 =  \left( \sqrt{ \frac{1}{x^3} } \right)^5= \frac{1}{ (\sqrt{x^3})^5 } = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{x^{15}} } = \frac{1}{x^7 \sqrt{x} }


<span>Explanation for the last step:</span>
\sqrt{x^{15}}= \sqrt{x^{14}*x}= \sqrt{x^{14}}* \sqrt{x} =x^{ \frac{14}{2} }* \sqrt{x} =x^7 \sqrt{x}

How do I do this? 50 points, please answer

Check the picture below.

now, the midsegment of a triangle, besides being half the base, we have to bear in mind that is a "mid" segment, is a segment that lies half-way along the segments it touches.

so for the triangle above, well, the midsegment DE is cutting the segment BC it two equal halves, BE and EC, that means that \stackrel{x}{BE}~~ = ~~\stackrel{8}{EC}.
