Answer:

A line perpendicular to another has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line. The negative reciprocal of the original line is –2, and is thus the slope of its perpendicular line.

If (9x − 4)(9x + 4) = ax² − b, what is the value of a? (5 points)

lions [1.4K]

Given, (9x - 4)(9x + 4) = ax² - b

From algebraic identities:

We know, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Now, 81x² + 36x - 36x - 16 = ax² - b

81x² - 16 = axis² - b

So ax² = 81x²

a = 81

-b = -16

b = 16

Solution

Therefore, the value of a is 81.

What is the difference? StartFraction x 5 Over x 2 EndFraction minus StartFraction x 1 Over x squared 2 x EndFraction StartFract

Troyanec [42]

The difference of the given fraction is expressed as $\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

Given the expression:

$\frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x^2+2x} \\$

Take the LCM of the fraction to have:

$=\frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x(x+5)-(x+1)}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x^2+5x-x-1}{x(x+2)}\\=\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$

Hence the difference of the given fraction is expressed as $\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}$
