Answer:
The intermediate step are;
1) Separate the constants from the terms in x² and x
2) Divide the equation by the coefficient of x²
3) Add the constants that makes the expression in x² and x a perfect square and factorize the expression
Step-by-step explanation:
The function given in the question is 6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15
The intermediate steps in the to express the given function in the form (x + a)² = b are found as follows;
6·x² + 48·x + 207 = 15
We get
1) Subtract 207 from both sides gives 6·x² + 48·x = 15 - 207 = -192
6·x² + 48·x = -192
2) Dividing by 6 x² + 8·x = -32
3) Add the constant that completes the square to both sides
x² + 8·x + 16 = -32 +16 = -16
x² + 8·x + 16 = -16
4) Factorize (x + 4)² = -16
5) Compare (x + 4)² = -16 which is in the form (x + a)² = b
Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.
This is correct he is not wrong the answer is A.
A = 5, -10
B = 1, 8
C = 5, -7
Answer:
-4sinθcosθ
Step-by-step explanation:
Note:
1. (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
2. (a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2
3. sin^2θ + cos^2θ = 1
(sinθ -cosθ)^2 - (sinθ + cosθ)^2
= sin^2θ - 2sinθcosθ + cos^2θ - (sin^2θ + 2sinθcosθ + cos^2θ)
= sin^2θ + cos^2θ - 2sinθcosθ - (sin^2θ + cos^2θ + 2sinθcosθ)
= 1 - 2sinθcosθ - (1 + 2sinθcosθ)
= 1- 2sinθcosθ -1 - 2sinθcosθ
= - 2sinθcosθ - 2sinθcosθ
= -4sinθcosθ
