Which is the first step in simplifying the expression?

Elenna [48]

$\dfrac{3}{2 + \sqrt{2} }$

To rationalise the denominator, this is a standard step:
$= \dfrac{3}{2 + \sqrt{2} } \times \dfrac{2 - \sqrt{2}}{2 - \sqrt{2}}$

Answer: Option A

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me continue to complete the question, though it is not ask for

$= \dfrac{3(2 - \sqrt{2})}{(2 + \sqrt{2)}(2 - \sqrt{2}) }$

$= \dfrac{3(2 - \sqrt{2})}{4 - 2 }$

$= \dfrac{6 - 2\sqrt{2}}{2 }$

Solve the system of equations - 6x + 5y = 0 and -5x + 5y = -5 by combining

Anna [14]

Answer:

(x, y) = (-5, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of y are the same, so we can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here, we choose to subtract the first from the second, so that the coefficient of x ends up positive.

(-5x +5y) -(-6x +5y) = (-5) -(0)

x = -5 . . . . . . simplify

-6(-5) +5y = 0 . . . . . . substitute x into the first equation

6 +y = 0 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

y = -6 . . . . . . subtract 6

The solution to the system of equations is (x, y) = (-5, -6).

If r/s = 22 and the value of r is 242, what is the value of s

jekas [21]

Answer:

s = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{r}{s}$ = 22 ← substitute r = 242

$\frac{242}{s}$ = 22 ( multiply both sides by s )

242 = 22s ( divide both sides by 22 )

11 = s

I need help with this so could you give me the answers with an explanation if you can.

Katarina [22]

Answer:

$2.44745763 \times {10}^{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$R = \frac{ {x}^{2} }{y} \\ \\ = \frac{ {(3.8 \times {10}^{5}) }^{2} }{5.9 \times {10}^{4} } \\ \\ = \frac{14.44 \times {10}^{10} }{5.9 \times {10}^{4} } \\ \\ = 2.44745763 \times {10}^{10 - 4} \\ = 2.44745763 \times {10}^{6}$
