Theres a saying: Dividing fractions dont ask why, just flip the second and multiply.
so a/b / c/d = a/b * d/c
-8/2 * -3/6
1. cross - cancel common factor 2
4/2 * -3/3
2. Multiply
-4(-3)/ 2*3
3. multiply numbers
--12/2*3
- -12/6
4. Apply fraction rule -a/b=- a/b
=-(-12/6)
5. divide
= -(-2)
6. Apply rule -(-a)=a
=2
Your answer would be 2
P(x) = x^2 - 1
q(x) = 5(x - 1)
(p - q)(x) = (x^2 - 1) - 5(x - 1)
Answer:
It is transversal because it can separate two lines and become n perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
height = 12 cm
base length = 4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a triangle
base length × height / 2
x = height
y = base length
x = y + 8
24 = y × (y + 8) / 2
48 = y × (y + 8) = y² + 8y
squared equation
y² + 8y - 48 = 0
solution
y = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
a = 1
b = 8
c = -48
y = (-8 ± sqrt(64 - 4×-48))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 192))/2 =
= (-8 ± sqrt(256))/2 = (-8 ± 16)/2 = -4 ± 8
y1 = -4 + 8 = 4 cm
y2 = -4 - 8 = -12
but a negative base length did not make any sense, so only y = 4 remains.
x = y + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12 cm
