6/a - 4/b = 1 and 9/a - 8/b = 1​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alja [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a = 3 ; b = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Eqn.1 = \frac{6}{a}  -  \frac{4}{b}  = 1

Eqn.2 = \frac{9}{a}  -  \frac{8}{b}  = 1

Both the eqns have RHS (Right Hand Side) equal. So,

\frac{6}{a}  -  \frac{4}{b}  =  \frac{9}{a}  -  \frac{8}{b}

=  >  \frac{6b - 4a}{ab}  =  \frac{9b - 8a}{ab}

Cancelling ab from both the denominators of both the sides,

=  > 6b - 4a = 9b - 8a

=  > 8a - 4a = 9b - 6b

=  > 4a = 3b

=  > a =  \frac{3b}{4}

Putting the value of a in Eqn.1,

\frac{6}{ \frac{3b}{4} }  -  \frac{4}{b}  = 1

=  >  \frac{24}{3b}  -  \frac{4}{b}  = 1

=  >  \frac{8}{b} -  \frac{4}{b}   = 1

=  >  \frac{8 - 4}{b}  = 1

=  > b = 4

Putting the value of b in the value of a

a =  \frac{3 \times 4}{4}  = 3

Which description of the vector shown is correct ?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

(B) The magnitude is 7sqrt2, and the direction angle is approximately 135 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure, the coordinate of the tail of the vector,

(x_1,y_1)=(3,-6).

The coordinate of the head of the vector,

(x_2,y_2)=(-4,1).

The magnitude of a vector is the length between the head and tail of the vector.

By using the distance formula,

the magnitude of the vector = \sqrt{(1-(-6))^2+(-4-3)^2}

=\sqrt{(7^2+(-7)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{98}\\\\=7\sqrt{2}

Now, let \theta be the angle made by the vector with the positive direction of the x-axis, so

\tan\theta = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\Rightarrow \tan\theta = \frac{1-(-6)}{-4-3}=\frac{7}{-7}=-1 \\\\\Rightarrow \theta = \tan^{-1}(-1) \\\\\Rightarrow \theta =\pi- \tan^{-1}1 \\\\\Rightarrow \theta = \pi-\frac{\pi}{4} \\\\\Rightarrow \theta =\frac{3\pi}{4} \\\\\Rightarrow \theta = 135 ^{\circ}.

So, the magnitude of the vector is 7\sqrt 2 which makes 135 ^{\circ} with the positive direction of the x-axis.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Suppose that f: R --&gt; R is a continuous function such that f(x +y) = f(x)+ f(y) for all x, yER Prove that there exists KeR su
Pachacha [2.7K]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

f: R → R is a continuous function such that:

f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)------(1)  ∀  x,y ∈ R

Now, let us assume f(1)=k

Also,

  • f(0)=0

(  Since,

f(0)=f(0+0)

i.e.

f(0)=f(0)+f(0)

By using property (1)

Also,

f(0)=2f(0)

i.e.

2f(0)-f(0)=0

i.e.

f(0)=0  )

Also,

  • f(2)=f(1+1)

i.e.

f(2)=f(1)+f(1)         ( By using property (1) )

i.e.

f(2)=2f(1)

i.e.

f(2)=2k

  • Similarly for any m ∈ N

f(m)=f(1+1+1+...+1)

i.e.

f(m)=f(1)+f(1)+f(1)+.......+f(1) (m times)

i.e.

f(m)=mf(1)

i.e.

f(m)=mk

Now,

f(1)=f(\dfrac{1}{n}+\dfrac{1}{n}+.......+\dfrac{1}{n})=f(\dfrac{1}{n})+f(\dfrac{1}{n})+....+f(\dfrac{1}{n})\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\f(\dfrac{1}{n}+\dfrac{1}{n}+.......+\dfrac{1}{n})=nf(\dfrac{1}{n})=f(1)=k\\\\\\i.e.\\\\\\f(\dfrac{1}{n})=k\cdot \dfrac{1}{n}

Also,

  • when x∈ Q

i.e.  x=\dfrac{p}{q}

Then,

f(\dfrac{p}{q})=f(\dfrac{1}{q})+f(\dfrac{1}{q})+.....+f(\dfrac{1}{q})=pf(\dfrac{1}{q})\\\\i.e.\\\\f(\dfrac{p}{q})=p\dfrac{k}{q}\\\\i.e.\\\\f(\dfrac{p}{q})=k\dfrac{p}{q}\\\\i.e.\\\\f(x)=kx\ for\ all\ x\ belongs\ to\ Q

(

Now, as we know that:

Q is dense in R.

so Э x∈ Q' such that Э a seq belonging to Q such that:

\to x )

Now, we know that: Q'=R

This means that:

Э α ∈ R

such that Э sequence a_n such that:

a_n\ belongs\ to\ Q

and

a_n\to \alpha

f(a_n)=ka_n

( since a_n belongs to Q )

Let f is continuous at x=α

This means that:

f(a_n)\to f(\alpha)\\\\i.e.\\\\k\cdot a_n\to f(\alpha)\\\\Also\\\\k\cdot a_n\to k\alpha

This means that:

f(\alpha)=k\alpha

                       This means that:

                    f(x)=kx for every x∈ R

Multiply (2n + 2)(2n – 2) A. 4n 2 – 4 B. 4n 2 – 4n – 4 C. 4n 2 + 2n – 4 D. 4n 2 + 4n – 4
sattari [20]
This system can be a bit tricky unless you write it out:
(2n + 2)(2n - 2) ~ First you have to take one variable and multiply it to each of the other two variables, like:
2n * 2n ~ And:
2n * -2 ~ This gives you:
4n^2 - 4n
Now we do this with the other:
2 * 2n
2 * -2
4n - 4
Now we combine them both while adding like terms:
4n^2 - 4
Therefore your answer is: A. 4n^2 - 4
(This is due to how when having the positive 4n subtracted by the negative it cancels it out. Leaving us with the remaining two terms left.)

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^

Rewrite the equation below so that it does not have fractions.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

6x-40=3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 x -5 =3/8

Multiply each side by 8 to get rid of the fractions.

8(3/4x -5 ) =8*3/8

Distribute

6x-40=3
