Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
2a+ 2/a =4
Multiply each side by a to clear the fraction
a( 2a+ 2/a) =4*a
Distribute
2a^2 +2 = 4a
Subtract 4a from each side
2a^2 -4a +2 = 4a-4a
2a^2 -4a +2 =0
Divide by 2
2/2 a^2 -4a/2 +2/2 =0/2
a^2 -2a +1=0
Factor
(a-1) (a-1) =0
Using the zero product property
a=1
2a^2 -2/a^2
2(1)^2 -2/1^2
2-2
0
Simplifying
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving
3a + 2b + c = 26
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2b' to each side of the equation.
3a + 2b + -2b + c = 26 + -2b
Combine like terms: 2b + -2b = 0
3a + 0 + c = 26 + -2b
3a + c = 26 + -2b
Add '-1c' to each side of the equation.
3a + c + -1c = 26 + -2b + -1c
Combine like terms: c + -1c = 0
3a + 0 = 26 + -2b + -1c
3a = 26 + -2b + -1c
Divide each side by '3'.
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
Simplifying
a = 8.666666667 + -0.6666666667b + -0.3333333333c
I'm not sure if it only wants you to find Equation 1 or go further and solve:
x = the number of 5c coins
y = the number of 10c coins
Equation 1: the total number of coins is 65
x + y = 65
total value of $3.80
0.05x + 0.1y = 3.8
<u>Simultaneous Equations</u>
Make one coefficient the same
10 * (0.05x + 0.1y = 3.80 = 0.5x + y = 38
x + y = 65
0.5x + y = 38
Subtract the equations
(x + y) - (0.5x + y)= 65 - 38
(x - 0.5x) + (y - y) = 65 - 38
0.5x = 27
x = 54
Substitute it into the original equation to find y.
x + y = 65
54 + y = 56
y = 65 - 54 = 11
Substitute it into the other equation to check it's right.
0.05x + 0.1y = 3.8
0.05(54) + 0.1(65) = 3.8
x = 54 5c coins
y = 11 10c coins
Answer:
x ≈ 94.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan58° = 
= 
( multiply both sides by 59 )
59 × tan58° = x , then
x ≈ 94.4 ( to the nearest tenth )
