Solve the literal equation a + 4b = 5b - 3a for a

Mathematics

Simplifying
a + 4b = 5b + -3a

Reorder the terms:
a + 4b = -3a + 5b

Solving
a + 4b = -3a + 5b

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3a' to each side of the equation.
a + 3a + 4b = -3a + 3a + 5b

Combine like terms: a + 3a = 4a
4a + 4b = -3a + 3a + 5b

Combine like terms: -3a + 3a = 0
4a + 4b = 0 + 5b
4a + 4b = 5b

Add '-4b' to each side of the equation.
4a + 4b + -4b = 5b + -4b

Combine like terms: 4b + -4b = 0
4a + 0 = 5b + -4b
4a = 5b + -4b

Combine like terms: 5b + -4b = 1b
4a = 1b

Divide each side by '4'.
a = 0.25b

Simplifying
a = 0.25b

Answer:

  d.  76(cos(3π/16) +i·sin(3π/16))

Step-by-step explanation:

To form the product of 38cis(π/8) and 2cis(π/16), multiply the magnitudes and add the angles:

  38cis(π/8) × 2cis(π/16) = (38×2)cis(π/8 +π/16) = 76cis(3π/16)

___

In this context, a·cis(b) ≡ a(cos(b) +i·sin(b))

Find the height of the triangle
Paul [167]
There are two -main- approaches to answer this problem. By using the sine identity, or applying law of sines.

We'll do the sine trig. identity, as it is the most effective.

Given an angle '\alpha' in a right triangle, 'sin( \alpha )' is defined as the opposite side of the triangle to the given angle, over the triangle's hypotenuse.

So, for this setup:
sin(20)= \frac{x}{10}

Now, we solve for x:
x=10sin(20)=3.42

So, answer is 3.4
