If 2(4x + 3)/(x - 3)(x + 7) = a/x - 3 + b/x + 7, find the values of a and b.
zmey [24]

Answer:

a=3 and b=5.

Step-by-step explanation:

So I believe the problem is this:

\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}=\frac{a}{x-3}+\frac{b}{x+7}

where we are asked to find values for a and b such that the equation holds for any x in the equation's domain.

So I'm actually going to get rid of any domain restrictions by multiplying both sides by (x-3)(x+7).

In other words this will clear the fractions.

\frac{2(4x+3)}{x-3}(x+7)}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)=\frac{a}{x-3}\cdot(x-3)(x+7)+\frac{b}{x+7}(x-3)(x+7)

2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3)

As you can see there was some cancellation.

I'm going to plug in -7 for x because x+7 becomes 0 then.

2(4\cdot -7+3)=a(-7+7)+b(-7-3)

2(-28+3)=a(0)+b(-10)

2(-25)=0-10b

-50=-10b

Divide both sides by -10:

\frac{-50}{-10}=b

5=b

Now we have:

2(4x+3)=a(x+7)+b(x-3) with b=5

I notice that x-3 is 0 when x=3. So I'm going to replace x with 3.

2(4\cdot 3+3)=a(3+7)+b(3-3)

2(12+3)=a(10)+b(0)

2(15)=10a+0

30=10a

Divide both sides by 10:

\frac{30}{10}=a

3=a

So a=3 and b=5.

Please help me with this math problem, urgent please
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

y = -3.5x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope-intercept equation is always y = mx + b

Using this formula, we need to find slope first: m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

Step 1: Find slope

m = (1-8) / (4-2)

m = -7/2

Step 2: Plug in into slope-intercept form

y = -3.5x + b

Step 3: Find <em>b </em>(Plug in a coordinate given)

1 = -3.5(4) + b

1 = -14 + b

b = 15

Step 4: Combine it all together

y = -3.5x + 15

And you have your final answer.
