If a+1/a=3 then find the value of a-1/a​

Mathematics
1 answer:
kenny6666 [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  • √5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given a + 1/a = 3, find its square:</u>

  • a² + 2a*1/a + 1/a² = 9
  • a² + 1/a² = 9 - 2 = 7

<u>Now find the square of (a - 1/a):</u>

  • a² - 2a*1/a + 1/a² =
  • a² + 1/a² - 2

<u>Substitute the value from the first square:</u>

  • 7 - 2 = 5

<u>Since (a - 1/a)² = 5, its square root is:</u>

  • a - 1/a = √5

Which shows the image of rectangle ABCD after the rotation () (W)?<br> 13<br> VA<br> 1<br> V
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Graph (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rule for the rotation of a figure is,

A(x, y) → A'(-y, x)

This rule defines the rotation of point A by 90° counterclockwise about the origin.

Coordinates of point A → (-2, 0)

Coordinates of point C → (-1, 0)

Following the rule of rotation,

A(x, y) → A'(-y, x)

A(-2, 0) → A'(0, -2)

C(-1, 4) → C'(-4, -1)

Now search the image points from the graphs attached,

Graph (1) will be the answer.

What is the value of X?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

127 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the total sum of all the angle in a hexagon is 720 degrees so in this case, x would be:

720 - 112 - 133 - 128 - 100 - 120 = 127 degrees

x would = 127 degrees

Arturo has a log that is 4 yards long. he cuts the log into pieces that are 1/3 yard long . how many pieces will Arturo have?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Arturo will have 12 pieces. For this problem, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. To do that, you flip 1/3 over to 3/1 and multiply that by 4. 3/1 times 4 equals 12. Remember that 4 as a fraction is 4 over 1. So you would multiply 4 by the numerator (3) because 4 is the numerator in 4/1.
