Find the constant of variation k for the direct variation 3x+5y=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

-3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=0

Subtract 3x from each side

3x+5y-3x=0-3x

5y = -3x

Divide each side by 5

5y/5 = -3x/5

y = -3/5 x

A direct variation is y = kx

y = -3/5 x

The constant of variation is -3/5

What are the real and complex solutions of the polynomial equation? x^3-8=0. with imaginary numbers
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Solutions are 2,  -1 +  0.5 sqrt10 i  and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i

or 2,  -1 +  1.58 i  and -1 - 1.58i

(where the last 2 are equal to nearest hundredth).


Step-by-step explanation:

The real solution is x = 2:-

x^3 - 8 = 0

x^3 = 8

x = cube root of 8 = 2

Note that a cubic equation must have  a total of 3 roots ( real and complex in this case).  We can find the 2 complex roots by using the following identity:-

a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2).

Here  a = x and b = 2 so we have

(x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4) = 0

To find the complex roots we solve x^2 + 2x + 4 = 0:-

Using the quadratic formula x = [-2 +/- sqrt(2^2 - 4*1*4)] / 2

= -1 +/- (sqrt( -10)) / 2

= -1 +  0.5 sqrt10 i  and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
