(-2x²y)³ / (xy²z)² * (-yz)² Hello guys, im having trouble with this babe...

Mathematics
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago

\frac{(-2x^2y)^3}{(xy^2z)^2(-yz)^2}

On top: (-2)³ = -2 × -2 × -2 = -8
(x²)³ = x^6 (the exponents multiply)
and of course, (y)³ = y³

On the bottom: (xy²z)² = x² y^4 z²
(-yz)² = y²z²
Multiplying these together, the exponents add and we get x² y^6 z^4.

\frac{-8x^6y^3}{x^2y^6z^4}

So, your reasoning is correct for what you have so far.

Your next step would be cancelling shared factors from the top and bottom.
Just like with regular fractions, if the numerator and denominator are divisible by the same number, you can divide them by it to simplify. (ex: 4/6 = 2/3)

Well, x^6 and x^2 are both divisible by x^2, right?
We can also cancel the y^3.

It might help to visualise the factors like this:

\frac{-8xxxxxxyyy}{xxyyyyyyzzzz}

Once you've cancelled out x² and y³ from each, you're left with

\boxed{\frac{-8x^4}{y^3z^4}}

A regular octagon with side length a cm can be made by cutting off
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

one side = \frac{a\sqrt{2}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

if you draw an octagon on a piece of paper, you can draw a square around it, you should be able to see a diagram of this attached, ignore the 6.

Let's say TP = a

since it's a regular octagon, TP = HT

and using the Pythagoras Theorem,  we know a² + b² = c² and thus:

√(AT² + HA²) = HT

and since AT = HA which we will call x, the equation becomes:

√(2x²) = HT = a

rearrange the equation to solve for x and you get:

2x² = a²

x² = \frac{a^{2} }{2}

x = \frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}

which, if you rationalise the denominator, you get:

x = \frac{a\sqrt{2}}{2}
