The answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ will be $\frac{8}{3}$

2. Now the equation is,

$\frac{3}{2}$ a - $\frac{4}{3}$ a = $\frac{10}{3}$ + $\frac{8}{3}$ a

3. Take LCM on both sides.

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by $\frac{3}{3}$ and multiply the second fraction by $\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*3}$ a - $\frac{4*3}{3*3}$ a = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

4. Solve by making a the subject

$\frac{9a-8a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{3a}{6}$ =10+8a

$\frac{a}{2}$ = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = $\frac{20}{-15}$

a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Therefore, the answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Determine if the function is one-to-one.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I saw on google for what "one to one" means, It's basically meaning that the bottom of that quadratic function is at point (0 , 0) and hits both (-1 , 1) and (1 , 1) on the graph.
