What are some easy ways to find the value of (2017^4−2016^4)/(2017^2+2016^2) without calculator

Mathematics

Answer:

4033

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to solve this problem is to notice the numerator, 2017^4-2016^4 resembles the special product a^2 - b^2. In this case, 2017^4 is a^2 and 2016^4 is b^2. We can set up equations to solve for a and b:

a^2 = 2017^4

a = 2017^2

b^2 = 2016^4

b = 2016^2

Now, the special product a^2 - b^2 factors to (a + b)(a - b), so we can substitute that for the numerator:

<h3>\frac{(2017^2+2016^2)(2017^2 - 2016^2)}{2017^2+2016^2}</h3>

We can notice that both the numerator and denominator contain 2017^2 + 2016^2, so we can divide by \frac{2017^2+2016^2}{2017^2+2016^2} which is just one, and will simplify the fraction to just:

2017^2 - 2016^2

This again is just the special product a^2 - b^2, but in this case a is 2017 and b is 2016. Using this we can factor it:

(2017 + 2016)(2017 - 2016)

And, without using a calculator, this is easy to simplify:

(4033)(1)

4033

Cathy did a survey in four bird parks and wrote the following observations: park p number of green birds 18 total number of bird
Nutka1998 [239]
Park p : 
18/82 = 0.219 = 21.9% green birds

park q :
39/88 = 0.443 = 44.3% green birds

park r :
38/64 = 0.593 = 59.3% green birds

park service :
22/50 = 0.44 = 44%

park with greatest percentage of green birds is park r <==

write an equation of the line passing through the point (6,3) that is perpendicular to the line 5x - 6y = 10​
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

5x-6y-12=0

Step-by-step explanation:

...make y the subject y=-6/5x +2

...use the coefficient of x as the gradient,m=-6/5

...for a perpendicular line,find the negative reciprocal of the gradient,5/6

...sub into the eqn y= -1/m(x-a)+b

How do i estimate quotients 933 divided by 3
Maurinko [17]
K, so
remember that \frac{a+b+c}{d} = \frac{a}{d}+ \frac{b}{d}+ \frac{c}{d}
so
\frac{933}{3}=\frac{900+30+3}{3} = \frac{900}{3}+ \frac{30}{3}+ \frac{3}{3}   = 300+10+1=311

For △RST and △UVW, ∠R≅∠U, ST≅VW, and ∠S≅∠v. Explain how you can prove △RST ≅△UVW by ASA
monitta

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that in △RST and △UVW

  • m∠T=180°-m∠R-m∠S;
  • m∠W=180°-m∠U-m∠V.

Since ∠R≅∠U and ∠S≅∠V, then ∠T≅∠W.

In ΔRST and ΔUVW:

  • ∠S≅∠V (given);
  • ∠T≅∠W (proved);
  • ST≅VW (given).

ASA theorem that states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

By ASA theorem ΔRST≅ΔUVW.
