Answer:(a² - 4b² - 9)(a² - 4b² + 9)

(a^4 - 8a²b² + 16b^4) - 81

= [(a²)² - 2.4a²b² + (4b²)²] - 9²

= (a² - 4b²)² - 9²

= (a² - 4b² - 9)(a² - 4b² + 9)

Answer:

[(a - 2b)(a + 2b) + 9)][(a - 2b)(a + 2b) - 9]

This can be written as the difference of 2 squares:

(a^4 - 8a^2b^2 + 16b^4) -81

= (a^2 - 4b^2)^2 - 81

=[(a^2 - 4b^2) + 9] [(a^2 - 4b^2) - 9]

= [(a - 2b)(a + 2b) + 9)][(a - 2b)(a + 2b) - 9]

18. Is the relation {(3, 5), (–4, 5), (–5, 0), (1, 1), (4, 0)} a function? Explain. Type your answer below.
NemiM [27]

It is a function because all the inputs (x values) have one output (y value).

For something to be a function, inputs can only have ONE output, if an input has multiple outputs, it is not a function.

If different inputs have the same output, it is still a function because they don't have the same input value

How come this person didn’t divide EVERYTHING on the left by 2? I thought you had to...
damaskus [11]

The short answer is that algebra doesn't work that way. You wouldn't divide *everything* by 2, but every term that contains a factor of 2.

In the expression

2 (6<em>x</em> - 1) + 2 (2<em>x</em> + 5)

both terms have a factor of 2 (the 2 out in front of them). They're the ones that get canceled when dividing by 2:

(2 (6<em>x</em> - 1) + 2 (2<em>x</em> + 5)) / 2 = 2/2 (6<em>x</em> - 1) + 2/2 (2<em>x</em> - 5)

… = 1 (6<em>x</em> - 1) + 1 (2<em>x</em> - 5)

… = (6<em>x</em> - 1) + (2<em>x</em> - 5)

and so on.

Looking ahead, it turns out that the equation is solved by <em>x</em> = 7. This makes 6<em>x</em> - 1 = 41 and 2<em>x</em> + 5 = 19. So the equation is saying that, if you make these replacements,

2×41 + 2×19 = 120

If you divide *everything* on the left by 2, you end up with fractions:

(2/2)×(41/2) + (2/2)×(19/2) = 41/2 + 19/2

but 41 + 19 = 60, so the end result would be 30, but that's not the same as 120/2 = 60.

Find the values of x for which the following inequalities are satisfied 2x^2+3x&lt;14
deff fn [24]

Answer:

x<-3.5 or x<2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²+3x<14

2x²+3x-14<0

2x²-4x+7x-14<0

2x(x-2)+7(x-2)<0

(2x+7)(x-2)<0

2x+7<0 or x-2<0

2x<-7 or x<2

x<-3.5
