Answer:

q = ± \frac{9}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

16q² - 81 = 0 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then

16q² - 81 = 0

(4q)² - 9² = 0

(4q - 9)(4q + 9) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for q

4q - 9 = 0 ⇒ 4q = 9 ⇒ q = \frac{9}{4}

4q + 9 = 0 ⇒ 4q = - 9 ⇒ q = - \frac{9}{4}

Answer: q=\frac{\sqrt{81}}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

16q^2-81=0\\16q^2=0+81=81\\16q=\sqrt{81} \\q=\frac{\sqrt{81}}{16}

the eccentricity of a hyperbola is defined as e=c/a. find an equation with vertices (1,-3) and (-3,-3) and e=5/2
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

\frac{(x + 1 )^{2} }{4} - \frac{(y + 3 )^{2} }{21} = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If (α, β) are the coordinates of the center of the hyperbola, then its equation of the hyperbola is \frac{(x - \alpha )^{2} }{a^{2} } - \frac{(y - \beta )^{2} }{b^{2} } = 1.

Now, the vertices of the hyperbola are given by (α ± a, β) ≡ (1,-3) and (-3,-3)

Hence, β = - 3 and α + a = 1 and α - a = -3

Now, solving those two equations of α and a we get,  

2α = - 2, ⇒ α = -1 and

a = 1 - α = 2.

Now, eccentricity of the hyperbola is given by b^{2} = a^{2}(e^{2}  - 1) = 4[(\frac{5}{2} )^{2} -1] = 21 {Since e = \frac{5}{2} given}

Therefore, the equation of the given hyperbola will be  

\frac{(x + 1 )^{2} }{4} - \frac{(y + 3 )^{2} }{21} = 1. (Answer)

Simplify: 20 sin(2x) cos(2x)
alexandr1967 [171]
Use the the double angle formula:
sin(2A)=2sin(A)cos(A)

substitute 2x for A, then
20sin(2x)cos(2x)=10(sin(2(2x))cos(2(2x))=10sin(4x)
