20 less than 1000 is 980.
<span>Simplifying
(6a + -8b)(6a + 8b) = 0
Multiply (6a + -8b) * (6a + 8b)
(6a * (6a + 8b) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
((6a * 6a + 8b * 6a) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
(48ab + 36a2 + (6a * -8b + 8b * -8b)) = 0
(48ab + 36a2 + (-48ab + -64b2)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(48ab + -48ab + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0
Combine like terms: 48ab + -48ab = 0
(0 + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0
(36a2 + -64b2) = 0
Solving
36a2 + -64b2 = 0
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '64b2' to each side of the equation.
36a2 + -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 + 64b2
Combine like terms: -64b2 + 64b2 = 0
36a2 + 0 = 0 + 64b2
36a2 = 0 + 64b2
Remove the zero:
36a2 = 64b2
Divide each side by '36'.
a2 = 1.777777778b2
Simplifying
a2 = 1.777777778b2
Take the square root of each side:
a = {-1.333333333b, 1.333333333b}</span>
Answer:
second one is 3, the last one is 4560
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- as written, c ≈ 0.000979 or c = 4
- alternate interpretation: c = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>As written</em>, you have an equation that cannot be solved algebraically.
(32^2)c = 8^c
1024c = 8^c
1024c -8^c = 0 . . . . . . rewrite as an expression compared to zero
A graphical solution shows two values for c: {0.000978551672551, 4}. We presume you're interested in c = 4.
___
If you mean ...
32^(2c) = 8^c
(2^5)^(2c) = (2^3)^c . . . . rewriting as powers of 2
2^(10c) = 2^(3c) . . . . . . . simplify
10c = 3c . . . . . . . . . . . . . .log base 2
7c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3c
c = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7
