Evaluate (2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) where a = -2 and b = 5:
(2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) = (5 - 2×2)^2/(3×5 - 1)
3×5 = 15:
(5 - 2×2)^2/(15 - 1)
| 1 | 5
- | | 1
| 1 | 4:
(5 - 2×2)^2/14
2 (-2) = -4:
(-4 + 5)^2/14
5 - 4 = 1:
1^2/14
1^2 = 1:
Answer: 1/14
Answer:
So the number of total combinations is 35.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Ellen must take 4 courses this semester. She has a list of 3 math courses and 4 science courses.
Therefore, she have total 7 courses.
So, we calculate the number of combinations to choose 4 out of 7 courses.
We get:
So the number of total combinations is 35.
Answer:
8.64
Step-by-step explanation:
6>4-2x<4
so therefor (4x-2) must be less than 6 and less than 4
it must be
6>4-2x and 4<4-2x
find the intersection
6>4-2x
add 2x to both sides
6+2x>4
subtract 6
2x>-2
divide by 2
x>-1
4>4-2x
add 2x
4+2x>4
subtract 4
2x>0
x>0
so we have
x>0
and x>-1
the range of x>-1 includes most of x>0 so the answer is
x>-1
