given that 8-sqrt(18) over sqrt(2) = a + b sqrt(2) where a and b are integers find the value of a and b

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

a = - 3 and b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{8-\sqrt{18} }{\sqrt{2} }$

Simplify $\sqrt{18}$

= $\sqrt{9(2)}$ = $\sqrt{9}$ × $\sqrt{2}$ = 3 $\sqrt{2}$

Thus expression can be written as

$\frac{8-3\sqrt{2} }{\sqrt{2} }$

Multiply numerator/denominator by $\sqrt{2}$

noting that $\sqrt{2}$ × $\sqrt{2}$ = 2

= $\frac{\sqrt{2}(8-3\sqrt{2}) }{\sqrt{2}(\sqrt{2}) }$

= $\frac{8\sqrt{2}-6 }{2}$

Dividing each term on the numerator by 2

= 4 $\sqrt{2}$ - 3

= - 3 + 4 $\sqrt{2}$

with a = - 3 and b = 4

What are the domain, range, and asymptote of h(x) = (0.5)x – 9?

Rzqust [24]

Let's solve for h

hx = 0.5x - 9

Step 1: Divide both sides by x.

hx/x = 0.5x - 9/ x

Answer = h = 0.5x - 9/ x
