Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

a:b = 5:8 means a/b = 5/8

20/b = 5/8

Cross multiplication will give you b = 32

Answer:

b = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

20/5 = 4

So for finding b, we have to multiply 8 * 4 which is 32.

Al factorizar el trinomio cuadrado perfecto, obtenemos el siguiente resultado: (que no se como resolver) xd algun pro que sepa r
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

\displaystyle \frac{100}{81}m^8p^{12}q^{16}z^2-\frac{20}{63}m^5p^7q^8z^5+ \frac{1}{49}m^2p^2z^8=\left(\frac{10}{9}m^4p^{6}q^{8}z-\frac{1}{7}mpz^4\right)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trinomio Cuadrado Perfecto</u>

El producto notable llamado cuadrado de un binomio se expresa como:

(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

Si se tiene un trinomio, es posible convertirlo en un cuadrado perfecto si cumple con las condiciones impuestas en la fórmula:

* El primer término es un cuadrado perfecto

* El último término es un cuadrado perfecto

* El segundo término es el doble del proudcto de los dos términos del binomio.

Tenemos la expresión:

\displaystyle \frac{100}{81}m^8p^{12}q^{16}z^2-\frac{20}{63}m^5p^7q^8z^5+ \frac{1}{49}m^2p^2z^8

Calculamos el valor de a como la raiz cuadrada del primer término del trinomio:

\displaystyle a=\sqrt{\frac{100}{81}m^8p^{12}q^{16}z^2}

\displaystyle a=\frac{10}{9}m^4p^{6}q^{8}z

Calculamos el valor de a como la raiz cuadrada del primer término del trinomio:

\displaystyle b=\sqrt{\frac{1}{49}m^2p^2z^8

\displaystyle b=\frac{1}{7}mpz^4

Nos cercioramos de que el término central es 2ab:

\displaystyle 2ab=2\frac{10}{9}m^4p^{6}q^{8}z\frac{1}{7}mpz^4

Operando:

\displaystyle 2ab=\frac{20}{63}m^5p^7q^8z^5

Una vez verificado, ahora podemos decir que:

\displaystyle \frac{100}{81}m^8p^{12}q^{16}z^2-\frac{20}{63}m^5p^7q^8z^5+ \frac{1}{49}m^2p^2z^8=\left(\frac{10}{9}m^4p^{6}q^{8}z-\frac{1}{7}mpz^4\right)^2

Select all that apply.
Lelechka [254]

Answer: The second option and the third option are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the line in slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where <em>m </em>is the slope and <em>b </em>is the y-intercept.

By definition, the y-intercept in a direct variation is 0.

Therefore, substituting m=-3 and b=0 into the equation, you obtain:

y=-3x+0

Then, the equation is:

y=-3x

As this is a line, it is a linear function.

Therefore, the second option and the third option are true.
