Answer:

  a) x = {-2 2/3, -2}

  b) x = {-8, 3}

  c) x = {-1, 23}

Step-by-step explanation:

If all you want are solutions, a graphing calculator can give them to you easily. The attachment shows the solutions as x-intercepts when the equation is rearranged to the form f(x) = 0.

In general, it can be convenient to write the equation in standard form with integer coefficients. Common factors among the coefficients should be removed.

  3(x+4)^2 = 10x +32 . . . . . given

  3(x^2 +8x +16) -10x -32 = 0

  3x^2 +14x +16 = 0

To factor this, we're looking for factors of 3·16 that total 14.

  48 = 1·48 = 2·24 = 3·16 = 4·12 = 6·8

The last pair of factors has a total of 14, so we can rewrite the equation as ...

  (3x +6)(3x +8)/3 = 0

  (x +2)(3x +8) = 0

The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero:

  x = -2, x = -8/3

__

  (x +4)^2 = 3x +40 . . . . . . . . given

  x^2 +8x +16 -3x -40 = 0 . . . . subtract the right side

  x^2 +5x -24 = 0 . . . . . . . . simplify

  (x +8)(x -3) = 0 . . . . . . factor

The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero:

  x = -8, x = 3

  (x^2 -1)/2 -11x = 11 . . . . . given

  x^2 -1 -22x -22 = 0 . . . . . . multiply by 2, subtract the right side

  x^2 -22x -23 = 0 . . . . . . simplify

  (x -23)(x +1) = 0 . . . . . . factor

  x = 23, x = -1

Additional comment

Factoring often gets to the solution with the least fuss when the solutions are rational. There are several ways factoring can be done when the leading coefficient is not 1. One of them is illustrated in (a) above. We will show two other methods that give the same result.

factoring by pairs

We have identified the factors of 3·16 = 48 that have a total of 14. We can use those factors to rewrite the 14x term in the equation.

  3x^2 +6x +8x +16 = 0

Now, we can group the terms in pairs, and factor each pair. It does not matter which of the factors (6 or 8) you write first. You will end with the same result.

  (3x^2 +6x) +(8x +16) = 0

  3x(x +2) +8(x +2) = 0

  (3x +8)(x +2) = 0   ⇒   x = -8/3, x = -2

__

factoring using the X method

This method is usually shown using a large graphic X. In the top quadrant is written the product of the leading coefficient and the constant: 3·16 = 48.

In the bottom quadrant is written the coefficient of the x-term: 14.

If one or the other, or both, of these top/bottom values is negative, be sure to keep the sign.

The side quadrants are then filled with values that have a product equal to the top number, and a sum equal to the bottom number. (Pay attention to the signs.) Further, in each of those quadrants, the number written is divided by the leading coefficient, and the fraction reduced to lowest terms.

Here, we would have 6/3 = 2 on one side, and 8/3 on the other side. Now the factors are written as (bx+a), where the reduced fraction on either side is a/b. In our example, the factors are (x+2) and (3x+8)

__

alternate X method

This starts off in the same way the X method does, as described above. However, the factors on either side of the X are not divided by the leading coefficient (a). If those side values are 'p' and 'q', the quadratic is written in factored form as ...

  (ax +p)(ax +q)/a = 0

You will notice we used this form above: (3x +6)(3x +8)/3 = 0.

Now, the divisor 'a' can be used to reduce either or both of the numerator factors. Here, the entire factor of 3 can be removed from (3x+6) to make the factorization be ...

  (x +2)(3x +8) = 0

__

Sometimes, one factor of the divisor will be removed from one term, and the other factor of it will be removed from the other term. An example of this might be ...

  [tex]\dfrac{(6x+3)(6x+2)}{6}=\dfrac{6x+3}{3}\cdot\dfrac{6x+2}{2}=(2x+1)(3x+1)[/tex]

Answer:-

   ∴x−3y−4z=0

Explanation:

First we rearrange the equation of the surface into the form f(x,y,z)=0

   x2+2z2=y2

   ∴x2−y2+2z2=0

And so we have our function:

   f(x,y,z)=x2−y2+2z2

In order to find the normal at any particular point in vector space we use the Del, or gradient operator:

   ∇f(x,y,z)=∂f∂xˆi+∂f∂yˆj+∂f∂zˆk

remember when partially differentiating that we differentiate wrt the variable in question whilst treating the other variables as constant. And so:

   ∇f=(∂∂x(x2−y2+2z2))ˆi+

                    (∂∂y(x2−y2+2z2))ˆj+

                    (∂∂z(x2−y2+2z2))ˆk

      =2xˆi−2yˆj+4zˆk

So for the particular point (1,3,−2) the normal vector to the surface is given by:

   ∇f(1,3,−2)=2ˆi−6ˆj−8ˆk

So the tangent plane to the surface x2+2z2=y2 has this normal vector and it also passes though the point (1,3,−2). It will therefore have a vector equation of the form:

   →r⋅→n=→a⋅→n

Where →r=⎛⎜⎝xyz⎞⎟⎠; →n=⎛⎜⎝2−6−8⎞⎟⎠, is the normal vector and a is any point in the plane

Hence, the tangent plane equation is:

   ⎛⎜⎝xyz⎞⎟⎠⋅⎛⎜⎝2−6−8⎞⎟⎠=⎛⎜⎝13−2⎞⎟⎠⋅⎛⎜⎝2−6−8⎞⎟⎠

   ∴(x)(2)+(y)(−6)+(z)(−2)=(1)(2)+(3)(−6)+(−2)(−8)

   ∴2x−6y−8z=2−18+16

   ∴2x−6y−8z=0

   ∴x−3y−4z=0

Answer:

7^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent expression 7^8 x 7^-4 using a single exponent is 7^4

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

7 ^ 8 x 7 ^ -4

This means that

7^8 x 7^-4

Apply the law of indices

So, we have

7^8 x 7^-4 = 7^(8 - 4)

This gives

7^8 x 7^-4 = 7^4

Hence, the solution is 7^8 x 7^-4 = 7^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio 9:2, therefore total number of shares is 11.

because 9+2 = 11

total cards = 8,250

8,250/11 = 750

This is the value for one of the shares.

As the ratio is 9:2 we can find:

9 X 750 : 2 X 750

T-shirts : 2 X 750 = 1,500.

Answer:

0 = 16 or No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Add  7   to both sides of the equation

3x - 7 + 7 = 3x + 9 + 7

2) Simplify

A. Add the numbers

3x = 3x + 9 + 7

B. Add the numbers

3x = 3x + 16

3) Subtract 3x  from both sides of the equation

3x - 3x = 3x + 16 - 3x

4) Simplify

A. Combine like terms

0 = 3x + 16 - 3x

B. Combine like terms

0 = 16

The answer to the first question is 32 but I don't know the slope of the line, sorry

Different points can be used to identify the slope as follows -

We have a straight line.

We have to investigate why is the slope same on a line when different points are used to identify the slope.

The slope of a line is denoted by m and is defined as the change in y coordinate with respect to the change in x coordinate.

According to question -

Different points can be used to identify the slope provided that they all lie on the same straight line. Line is a collection of points and these set of points can be used top determine the rate of change of y with respect to x. The slope of a line can also be found out using y - intercept of the line using the general equation of straight line -

y = mx + c.

Hence, the slope is same on a line provided that they all lie on the same straight line
