Why does the problem

C%5D" id="TexFormula1" title="\[\frac{y^2-5}{y^4-81}+\frac{4}{y^4-81}\]" alt="\[\frac{y^2-5}{y^4-81}+\frac{4}{y^4-81}\]" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula"> equal 1/y^2+9?
After multiplying the second fraction by -1 to make the denominators equal, then adding, and then simplified the y^2 on the top and the y^4 on the bottom you get 1/y^2-81. How does the 81 turn into a 9? and once it is a nine, why don't you simplify it to (y-3)(y+3)?

\bf \cfrac{y^2-5}{y^4-81}+\cfrac{4}{y^4-81}\implies \cfrac{y^2-5+4}{y^4-81}\implies \cfrac{y^2-1}{y^4-81}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{now recall your }\textit{difference of squares}
\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)\\\\
\textit{and keep in mind that }
\begin{cases}
1^2=1\\
1^3=1\\
1^{1,000,000}=1\\
----------\\
81=9^2\\
9=3^2
\end{cases}\\\\


\bf -----------------------------\\\\
thus
\\\\\\
\cfrac{y^2-1^2}{(y^2)^2-9^2}\implies \cfrac{(y-1)(y+1)}{(\underline{y^2-9})(y^2+9)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{(y-1)(y+1)}{\underline{(y-3)(y+3)}(y^2+9)}

would be a factored version of it

Will calculators or computers be needed to perform some calculations?
STatiana [176]
I think the answer would be no. We create computers so we can do the problems ourselves. maybe eventually the asnwer will be yes, but for now i think they just solve equations quicker than the average human brain. hope this helps!

What is the answer to this equation. Please I really need help.
Anika [276]

Answer:

Angle A = Angle X

Line Segment CA = Line Segment ZX

Angle Y = Angle B

Line Segment YX = Line Segment BA

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles are stated to be equal so we can draw two triangles and label them. One triangle has Point A, Point B, and Point C. The second triangle has Point X, Point Y, and Point Z. Make sure that Point X on the second triangle is in the same spot as Point A on the first triangle (same for points B, C, Y, and Z).
