Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step by step solution :

STEP

1

:

           5

Simplify   —

           9

Equation at the end of step

1

:

                       5

 ((9 • (x2)) -  6x) +  —  = 0

                       9

STEP

2

:

Equation at the end of step

2

:

                 5

 (32x2 -  6x) +  —  = 0

                 9

STEP

3

:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

3.1   Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  9  as the denominator :

                9x2 - 6x     (9x2 - 6x) • 9

    9x2 - 6x =  ————————  =  ——————————————

                   1               9      

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

STEP

4

:

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :

  9x2 - 6x  =   3x • (3x - 2)

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

4.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

3x • (3x-2) • 9 + 5     81x2 - 54x + 5

———————————————————  =  ——————————————

         9                    9      

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

4.3     Factoring  81x2 - 54x + 5

The first term is,  81x2  its coefficient is  81 .

The middle term is,  -54x  its coefficient is  -54 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +5

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   81 • 5 = 405

Step-2 : Find two factors of  405  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -54 .

     -405    +    -1    =    -406

     -135    +    -3    =    -138

     -81    +    -5    =    -86

     -45    +    -9    =    -54    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -45  and  -9

                    81x2 - 45x - 9x - 5

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   9x • (9x-5)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                    1 • (9x-5)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (9x-1)  •  (9x-5)

            Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

4

:

 (9x - 5) • (9x - 1)

 ———————————————————  = 0

          9        

STEP

5

:

When a fraction equals zero :

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 (9x-5)•(9x-1)

 ————————————— • 9 = 0 • 9

       9      

Now, on the left hand side, the  9  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  (9x-5)  •  (9x-1)  = 0

Theory - Roots of a product :

5.2    A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.3      Solve  :    9x-5 = 0

Add  5  to both sides of the equation :

                     9x = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by 9:

                    x = 5/9 = 0.556

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

5.4      Solve  :    9x-1 = 0

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

                     9x = 1

Divide both sides of the equation by 9:

                    x = 1/9 = 0.111

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving    81x2-54x+5  = 0   directly

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

1 2/5m - 3/5 ( 2/5m + 1 )
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

1 4/25 - 3/5, or 29/25 - 3/5, or \frac{(29m - 15)}{25}

it doesn't really matter they all mean the same

Step-by-step explanation:

1 2/5m - 3/5(2/5m + 1)

multiply first

1 2/5m - 6/25m - 3/5

multiply 1 2/5 only so the denominator is 25 as we can't simplify 6/25, it's so we can add them together, we can't add 3/5 tho bc it's a different term so there's no need to multiply that.

1 10/25m - 6/25m - 3/5

add/subtract

1 4/25m - 3/5

If f(x) = 3x2, what is the x-coordinate of the point of intersection of the graphs of y = f(x) and y = f(x − 4)?
Minchanka [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

When f(x) = f(x - 4), 3x² = 3(x - 4)².

=> x² = (x - 4)², x = -(x - 4), 2x = 4, x = 2.

The x-value is 2.

In a 45-45-90 triangle, what is the length of the hypotenuse when the length of one of the legs is 5 in.?
Contact [7]
Hello!

since this is a 45-45-90 degree triangle the hypotenuse is a\sqrt{2} where a is one of the legs

So the answer is 5\sqrt{2}

Hope this helps!
