a = 4

b = 9

c = -1

<u>Step 3: Find roots</u>

  1. Substitute:                    x=\frac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2-4(4)(-1)} }{2(4)}
  2. Exponents:                   x=\frac{-9\pm\sqrt{81-4(4)(-1)} }{2(4)}
  3. Multiply:                        x=\frac{-9\pm\sqrt{81-16} }{8}

Sadie simplified the expression √54a^7b^3, where a&gt;=0, as shown: √54a^7b^3= √3^2•6•a^2•a^5•b^2•b=3ab √6a^5b
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

We are to find the error made by Sadie and then find the correct simplification.

The error Sadie made is that she wrote a^7 as a^2 * a^5 instead of a^6 * a.

The square root of a^6 is a^3 and so she could have further simplified.

The correct simplification is shown below:

\sqrt{54a^7b^3} = \sqrt{2 * 3 * 3 * 3 * a^6 * a * b^2 * b} \\  \\= \sqrt{3^2 * a^6 * b^2 * 6 * a * b} \\\\= 3a^3b\sqrt{6ab}

aev [14]

The set of values which might correspond to the circle are A = 1, B = 1, C = 0, D = -8 and E = 7.

<h3>The equation of a circle.</h3>

Mathematically, the general form of the equation of a circle is given by;

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

<u>Where:</u>

  • h and k represents the coordinates at the center.
  • r is the radius of a circle.

Based on the information provided that the center of the circle lies on the y-axis, we have:

(h, k) = (0, 4)

Radius, r = 3 units.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

(x - 0)² + (y - 4)² = 3²

x ² + y² - 8y + 16 = 9

x ² + y² - 8y + 7 = 0.

Therefore, the set of values which might correspond to the circle are A = 1, B = 1, C = 0, D = -8 and E = 7.

I need help finding the lowest term for -8/9+11/15​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

-7/45

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the lowest common denominator for 9 and 15. It's 45. Make both fractions over 45 by multiplying the top and bottom by the same number.

-\frac{8}{9} +\frac{11}{15}

= -\frac{8*5}{9*5} +\frac{11*3}{15*3}  Since 15*3=45, multiply the top by 3 also.    Since 9*5=45, multiply the top by 5 also.

= -\frac{40}{45} +\frac{33}{45}

= \frac{-40+33}{45}    Combine the fractions

= -\frac{7}{45}    Answer in lowest terms
