6 times a number is 27 less than the square of that number. Find the positive solution.

Mathematics

Verdich [7]3 years ago

Let x = your number.

6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.

0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor

0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero

(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.

x = -3. This is the negative solution.

(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.

x = 9. This is the positive solution.

Rewrite the following expression.
faust18 [17]

We have been given the expression

x^{\frac{9}{7}}

We have the exponent rule

x^{\frac{a}{b}}= x^{a^{(\frac{1}{b})}}

Using this rule, we have

x^{\frac{9}{7}}= x^{9^{(\frac{1}{7})}}

Now, using the fact that x^{\frac{1}{n}}=\sqrt[n]{x}, we get

x^{\frac{9}{7}}= \sqrt[7]{x^9}\\
\\
x^{\frac{9}{7}}=\sqrt[7]{x^7\times x^2}\\
\\
x^{\frac{9}{7}}=x\sqrt[7]{x^2}

D is the correct option.
