Answer:

AB=2\sqrt{ab}

Step-by-step explanation:

From figure,

OA=a,  \quad \quad O'B=b\\\Rightarrow OO'= (a+b) \quad \quad \text{and}\quad OD=(a-b)

In triangle OO'D

  (OO')^2=(OD)^2+(O' D)^2

\Rightarrow (a+b)^2=(a-b)^2+(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow a^2+b^2+2ab-a^2-b^2+2ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow 4ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow O'D=2\sqrt{ab} \\\Rightarrow O' D=2\sqrt{ab}=AB \quad \quad [\because O' DAB\;\; \text{is a rectangle.}]

Hence, AB=2\sqrt{ab}

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

5,184•b•t^6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to multiply the expressions

According to indices law, if we have same bases, we add up the exponents

Thus, we have that;

8 *8b^(2/3+5/3) * 9 * 9 * t^(3/5+3/5)

= 64 * b * 81 * t^6/5

= 5,184bt^6/5

7. Sapna travelled 48 km to meet her parents. She travelled the first 18 km by car and the remaining distance by train. Find the
Anton [14]

The fraction of the journey Sapna traveled by car and train is 3/8 and 5/8 respectively.

We know that fraction is an expression in mathematics used to denote the division of two whole numbers.

Given that the total distance = 48 km.

The distance Sapna traveled by car = 18 km.

So, the fraction is = distance traveled by car/total distance = 18/48 = 3/8

The distance Sapna traveled by train = 48 - 18 km = 30 km.

So, the fraction is = distance traveled by train/total distance = 30/48 = 5/8

Therefore the fraction of the journey Sapna traveled by car and train is 3/8 and 5/8 respectively.

Solve and show all work |2×+3| -6=11​
mash [69]

Answer:

x = -10; x = 7  

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x + 3| - 6 =11

Add 6 to each side.

|2x + 3| = 17

Apply the absolute rule: If |x| = a, then x = a or x = -a.

(1) 2x + 3 = 17                    (2) 2x + 3 = -17

Subtract 3 from each side

         2x = 14                                 2x = -20

Divide each side by 2

          x = 7                                   x = -10

<em>Check: </em>

(1) |2(7) + 3| - 6 = 11                     (2) |2(-10) + 3| - 6 = 11

      |14 + 3| - 6 = 11                              |-20 + 3| - 6 = 11

             |17| - 6 = 11                                     |-17| - 6 = 1 1

              17 - 6 = 11                                        17 - 6 = 11

                    11 = 11                                              11 = 11
