First : x=-5-y and then put x in the phrase above
Given

we have

Squaring both sides, we have

And finally

Note that, when we square both sides, we have to assume that

because we're assuming that this fraction equals a square root, which is positive.
So, if that fraction is positive you'll actually have roots: choose

and you'll have

Which is a valid solution. If, instead, the fraction is negative, you'll have extraneous roots: choose

and you'll have

Squaring both sides (and here's the mistake!!) you'd have

which is not a solution for the equation, if we plug it in we have

Which is clearly false
Answer: 336g.
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for density is mass divided by volume (m/v). In this problem, you mus first find the volume of the square block. The formula for volume is length multiplied by width multiplied by height (LxWxH). To solve for volume you plug in the values to the equation: 6x4x2 = 48.
Now, you have the volume, and you have the density. Now you need to solve for mass. Plug in the values you have into the density equation (d=m/v):
7=m/48
to isolate M, multiply each side by 48. this leaves you with 7x48 = m. now all thats left is to solve. 7x48 = 336g. You can double check by plugging the values back into the equation. 336/48 = 7.
Answer:
2/35
Step-by-step explanation:
If you convert 17 1/2 to a improper fraction, it becomes 35/2. Then to find the reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator. So, 2/35
Hope this helps!
