(6a + -8b)(6a + 8b) = 0
Multiply (6a + -8b) * (6a + 8b)
(6a * (6a + 8b) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
((6a * 6a + 8b * 6a) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0
(48ab + 36a2 + (6a * -8b + 8b * -8b)) = 0
(48ab + 36a2 + (-48ab + -64b2)) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(48ab + -48ab + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0
Combine like terms: 48ab + -48ab = 0
(0 + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0
(36a2 + -64b2) = 0
Solving
36a2 + -64b2 = 0
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '64b2' to each side of the equation.
36a2 + -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 + 64b2
Combine like terms: -64b2 + 64b2 = 0
36a2 + 0 = 0 + 64b2
36a2 = 0 + 64b2
Remove the zero:
36a2 = 64b2
Divide each side by '36'.
a2 = 1.777777778b2
Simplifying
a2 = 1.777777778b2
Take the square root of each side:
a = {-1.333333333b, 1.333333333b}</span>
The answer is 21 because 189 divided by 9 is 21
Step-by-step explanation:
use formula of length of the diagonal of rectangle equal to d/rt2
The bill after applying the coupon = 31.84*(85%) = 27.064
so each of them will pay : 27.064/3 = $9.021
Answer:
x = 8
I dunno what the question is in the first place, but I assume you are solving for x.
Step-by-step explanation:
The two given angles are equivalent because they are parallel and they have a line that intersects.
The line creates two angles on each side of each line, which is 120 or 60 because there are 180 degs on a straight line.
The obtuse side is 120, and the -8 + 16x is also on an obtuse angle, showing that they are equal.
120 = -8 + 16x
128 = 16x
8 = x
x = 8
