If 2(4x + 3)/(x - 3)(x + 7) = a/x - 3 + b/x + 7, find the values of a and b.

zmey [24]

Answer:

$a=3$ and $b=5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

So I believe the problem is this:

$\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}=\frac{a}{x-3}+\frac{b}{x+7}$

where we are asked to find values for $a$ and $b$ such that the equation holds for any $x$ in the equation's domain.

So I'm actually going to get rid of any domain restrictions by multiplying both sides by (x-3)(x+7).

In other words this will clear the fractions.

$\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)=\frac{a}{x-3}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)+\frac{b}{x+7}(x-3)(x+7)$

$2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)$

As you can see there was some cancellation.

I'm going to plug in -7 for x because x+7 becomes 0 then.

$2(4\cdot -7+3)=a(-7+7)+b(-7-3)$

$2(-28+3)=a(0)+b(-10)$

$2(-25)=0-10b$

$-50=-10b$

Divide both sides by -10:

$\frac{-50}{-10}=b$

$5=b$

Now we have:

$2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)$ with $b=5$

I notice that x-3 is 0 when x=3. So I'm going to replace x with 3.

$2(4\cdot 3+3)=a(3+7)+b(3-3)$

$2(12+3)=a(10)+b(0)$

$2(15)=10a+0$

$30=10a$

Divide both sides by 10:

$\frac{30}{10}=a$

$3=a$

So $a=3$ and $b=5$ .

You have 8 gallons of lemonade to sell. You use cone-shaped cups that are 9 centimeters in diameter and 12 centimeters tall. Eac

andre [41]

You will need 119 cups to sell all of the lemonade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Diameter of cups = 9 cm

Radius of cup = $\frac{Diameter}{2}=\frac{9}{2}=4.5\ cm$

Height of cups = 12 cm

We will find volume of cup.

$Volume = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\$

Putting all the values

$Volume=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(4.5)^2(12)\\\\Volume=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(20.25)(12)\\\\Volume= \frac{763.02}{3}\\\\Volume= 254.34\ cm^3$

Therefore;

Each cup can hold 254.34 cubed centimeter of lemonade.

Number of gallons = 8

1 gallon = 3785 cm³

8 gallons = 3785*8 = 30280 cm³

Let,

x = Number of cups

Volume of lemonade in one cup * Number of cups = Volume of 8 gallons

254.34x=30280

Dividing both sides by 254.34

$\frac{254.34x}{254.34}=\frac{30280}{254.34}\\x=119.05$

Rounding off to nearest whole number

x = 119

You will need 119 cups to sell all of the lemonade.
