Both equations are equal because 1/2 and 3/6 are equivalent fractions. By multiplying both the numerator and denominator of 1/2 by 3 (3/3=1) we can get 3/6 making both equations appear the same

The quotient of any two numbers, with the condition that the denominator is different from zero
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The quotient of any two numbers can be written as:

A/B

such that:

A, B ∈ {R}

Where {R} is the set of all real numbers.

But we also have the restriction that the denominator, B in this case, must be different than zero.

So we can define the set:

{R \ {0}}

As the set of all the real numbers minus the element 0.

So in this set we do not have the number zero, so now we can write our expression as:

A/B

A ∈ {R}, B ∈ {R \ {0}}

If(√14/√7-2)-(√14/√7+2)=a√7+b√2 find the values of a and b where a and b are rational numbers​
seraphim [82]

Answer:

  • a = 4/3 and b = 0

============================

<h2>Given expression:</h2>

\dfrac{\sqrt{14} }{\sqrt{7}-2} -\dfrac{\sqrt{14} }{\sqrt{7}+2}

<h2>Simplify it in steps:</h2>

<h3>Step 1</h3>

Bring both fractions into common denominator:

\dfrac{\sqrt{14} (\sqrt{7}+2)}{(\sqrt{7}-2)(\sqrt{7}+2)} - \dfrac{\sqrt{14} (\sqrt{7}-2)}{(\sqrt{7}-2)(\sqrt{7}+2)}

<h3>Step 2</h3>

Simplify:

\dfrac{\sqrt{14} ((\sqrt{7}+2) - (\sqrt{7}-2))}{(\sqrt{7}-2)(\sqrt{7}+2)} =

\dfrac{\sqrt{14} (\sqrt{7}+2 - \sqrt{7}+2)}{(\sqrt{7}-2)(\sqrt{7}+2)} =

\dfrac{4\sqrt{14} }{(\sqrt{7}-2)(\sqrt{7}+2)} =

\dfrac{4\sqrt{14} }{(\sqrt{7})^2-2^2} =

\dfrac{4\sqrt{14} }{7-4} =

\dfrac{4}{3}  \sqrt{14} }

<h3>Step 3</h3>

Compare the result with given expression to get:

  • a = 4/3 and b = 0

Tara and Jody's bedrooms are shaped like rectangles. Tara's bedroom is 9 ft long and 8 ft wide. Jody's bedroom is 7ft long and 1
horrorfan [7]
Tara's Bedroom: A = lw
                           A =  (9)(8)
                           A = 72 ft²

Jody's Bedroom: A = lw
                           A = (7)(10)
                          A = 70 ft²

Tara's bedroom has the greater area than Jody's bedroom.

Halla la tasa de variación de cada funcion en el intervalo [-4,3] e indica si es positiva , negativa o nula A) f(x)=x2-2x+4 B) f
masya89 [10]

Answer:

A) \hspace{3}Rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change=-5\hspace{3}Negative\\\\B)\hspace{3}Rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change=-21\hspace{3}Negative  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function f(x), we called the rate of change to the number that represents the increase or decrease that the function experiences when increasing the independent variable from one value "x_1" to another "x_2".

The rate of change of f(x) between x_1 and x_2 can be calculated as follows:

Rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change=f(x_2)-f(x_1)

For:

f(x)=x^2-2x+4

Let's find f(x_1) and f(x_2), where:

[x_1,x_2]=[-4,3]

f(x_1)=f(-4)=(-4)^2-2(4)+4=16-8+4=12\\f(x_2)=f(3)=(3)^2-2(3)+4=9-6+4=7

So:

Rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change =7-12=-5\hspace{3}Negative

And for:

f(x)-3x+2

Let's find f(x_1) and f(x_2), where:

[x_1,x_2]=[-4,3]

f(x_1)=f(-4)=-3(-4)+2=12+2=14\\f(x_2)=f(3)=-3(3)+2=-9+2=-7

So:

Rate\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}change =-7-14=-21\hspace{3}Negative

<em>Translation:</em>

Dada una función f(x), llamábamos tasa de variación al número que representa el aumento o disminución que experimenta la función al aumentar la variable independiente de un valor "x_1" a otro "x_2".

La tasa de variación de f(x) entre x_1 y x_2, puede ser calculada de la siguiente forma:

Tasa\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}variacion=f(x_2)-f(x_1)

Para:

f(x)=x^2-2x+4

Encontremos f(x_1) y f(x_2), donde:

[x_1,x_2]=[-4,3]

f(x_1)=f(-4)=-3(-4)+2=12+2=14\\f(x_2)=f(3)=-3(3)+2=-9+2=-7

Entonces:

Tasa\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}variacion =7-12=-5\hspace{3}Negativa

Y para:

f(x)-3x+2

Encontremos f(x_1) y f(x_2), donde:

[x_1,x_2]=[-4,3]

f(x_1)=f(-4)=-3(-4)+2=12+2=14\\f(x_2)=f(3)=-3(3)+2=-9+2=-7

Entonces:

Tasa\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}variacion=-7-14=-21\hspace{3}Negativa
