F(2a)=35
35=(2a)^2-1
35=4a^2-1
minus 35 from both sidse
0=4a^2-36
facor out 4
0=4(a^2-9)
factor differece of 2 perfect squares
0=4(a-3)(a+3)
set to zero
a-3=0
a=3

a+3=0
a=-3


a=-3 or 3
hope that's what you're looking for.

How do I find x using a mathematical operation?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
I got this. Bottom of the triangle. that flat line is 180 degrees. you have an angle of 120, leaving an angle of 60. if you look at the top, that angle matches the other. so you have 65 degrees on one side, and 60 on the other. so 180-65-60=55. so X=55

Drina wrote the system of linear equations below.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Option c, A square matrix

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of linear equations are

3x-2y=-2\hfill(1)

7x+3y=26\hfill(2)

-x-11y=46\hfill(3)

Now to find the type of matrix can be formed by using this system

of equations

From the given system of linear equations we can form a matrix

Let A be a matrix

A matrix can be written by

A=co-efficient of x of 1st linear equation    co-efficient of y of 1st linear equation   constant of 1st terms linear equation

co-efficient of x of 2st linear equation   co-efficient of y of 2st linear equation  constant of 2st terms linear equation

co-efficient of x of 3st linear equation   co-efficient of y of 3st linear equation    constant of 3st terms linear equation           3\times 3

which is a 3\times 3 matrix.

Therefore A can be written as

A= \left[\begin{array}{lll}3&-2&-2\\7&3&26\\-1&-11&46\end{array}\right] 3\times 3

Matrix "A" is a 3\times3 matrix so that it has 3 rows and 3 columns

A square matrix has equal rows and equal columns

Since matrix "A" has equal rows and columns Therefore it must be a square matrix

Therefore the given system of linear equation forms a square matrix
