Evaluate the equation 4K-10/k=8

Mathematics
1 answer:
solong [7]3 years ago

Answer:

k = 1 + sqrt(7/2) or k = 1 - sqrt(7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for k over the real numbers:

4 k - 10/k = 8

Bring 4 k - 10/k together using the common denominator k:

(2 (2 k^2 - 5))/k = 8

Multiply both sides by k:

2 (2 k^2 - 5) = 8 k

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

4 k^2 - 10 = 8 k

Subtract 8 k from both sides:

4 k^2 - 8 k - 10 = 0

Divide both sides by 4:

k^2 - 2 k - 5/2 = 0

Add 5/2 to both sides:

k^2 - 2 k = 5/2

Add 1 to both sides:

k^2 - 2 k + 1 = 7/2

Write the left hand side as a square:

(k - 1)^2 = 7/2

Take the square root of both sides:

k - 1 = sqrt(7/2) or k - 1 = -sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

k = 1 + sqrt(7/2) or k - 1 = -sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

Answer: k = 1 + sqrt(7/2) or k = 1 - sqrt(7/2)

The Ms Jodi has 950 non fiction books. 40% of those books are about science topics and 30% are about history. How many books are
Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

well first you need to divide all the percents by 100.

40% = .40

30%= .30

and now you need to multiply those two by 950.

.40/950=4.20

.30/950=3.15

so ms jodi has about 3 books on history
