The denominator of the first term is a difference of squares, such that
4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em>)² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)
So you can write the fractions as
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)/(2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)
Multiply through the second fraction by 2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em> to get a common denominator:
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²/((2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))
((4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²) / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))
Expand the numerator:
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (4<em>a</em> ² - 4<em>ab</em> + <em>b</em> ²)
4<em>ab</em>
<em />
So the original expression reduces to
4<em>ab</em> / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))
or
4<em>ab</em> / (4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ²)
upon condensing the denominator again.
Answer:
The answer is 500
Step-by-step explanation:
When you round to the hundred, you look at the 10s place. If the 10s place is 5,6,7,8, or 9, you round the hundred up. In this case, it is 459 so you would round up to 500. Have a nice day!!!
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking antilogs, you have ...
2³ × 8 = (4x)²
64 = 16x²
x = √(64/16) = √4
x = 2 . . . . . . . . (the negative square root is not a solution)
___
You can also work more directly with the logs, if you like.
3·ln(2) +ln(2³) = 2ln(2²x) . . . . . . . . . . . write 4 and 8 as powers of 2
3·ln(2) +3·ln(2) = 2(2·ln(2) +ln(x)) . . . . use rules of logs to move exponents
6·ln(2) = 4·ln(2) +2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2·ln(2) = 2·ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4ln(2)
ln(2) = ln(x) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the antilogs
Answer:
0.8125
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are tasked with calculating the probability that 3 or less of her kittens were female.
Since each bsex is of likely probability, the probability of a male kitten = probability of a female kitten = 0.5
Now to calculate for 3 or less female kitten we are calcualting P(f) ≤ 3
In each case, we use the Bernoulli approximation
P(f) ≤ 3 = 
Where m is the probability of a male kitten and f is the probability of having a female kitten with both values = 0.5
P(f) ≤ 3 =(0.3125) + (0.3125) + (0.15625) + (0.03125) = 0.8125
