If x = 5-2√6, find the value of:
(i) x + 1/x
(ii) x² + 1/x²
Please solve ASAP​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x+(1/x) = 10 and x²+ (1/x²) = 98

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

x = 5-2√6

1/x = 1/(5-2√6)

The denominator = 5-2√6

The Rationalising factor of 5-2√6 = 5+2√6

On Rationalising the denominator then

⇛ 1/x = [1/(5-2√6)]×[(5+2√6)/5+2√6)]

⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/[5-2√6)(5+2√6)]

⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/[5²-(2√6)²]

Since (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²

Where ,

a = 5 and b = 2√6

⇛1/x = (5+2√6)/(25-24)

⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/1

⇛ 1/x = 5+2√6

Now,

x +(1/x)

⇛ 5-2√6+5+2√6

⇛ 5+5

⇛ 10

Therefore, x+(1/x) = 10.

On squaring both sides then

⇛ [x+(1/x)]² = 10²

⇛ x²+2(x)(1/x)+(1/x)² =100

⇛ x²+2+(1/x)² = 100

⇛ x²+(1/x²) = 100-2

⇛ x²+(1/x²) = 98

Therefore, x²+(1/x²) = 98.

In a garden 30% of the plants are carrots. If 63 plants are not carrots, how many of the plants are carrots.
Must show each step.

Answers

Answer: 27 see my work

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We know that 30% are carrots, meaning that 70% are not carrots (30% + 70% = 100%)

2. Since 70% and 63 of the plants are not carrots, we know that 63 = 70%

3. We need to find 30% of the plants (all of the carrots) so let’s divide 63 by 7

63 = 70%

*divide both by 7*

9 = 10%

4. We know that 9 plants is equivalent to 10% of the plants, so let’s multiply by 3 to get the number of carrots

9 = 10%

*multiply by 3*

27 = 30%

There are 27 carrots

given the sequence tn defined recursively below, find t4.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t_4 = 20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The base case in the recursive function are:

[tex]t_1 = 1[/tex]

[tex]t_2 = 2[/tex]

The recursive case is equal to:

[tex]t_n = 2t_{n-1} + 3t_{n-2}[/tex]

So replace [tex]t_n[/tex] for [tex]t_4[/tex]:

[tex]t_4 = 2t_{3} + 3t_{2}[/tex]

In the new expression [tex]t_2[/tex] is a base case so you don't have to worry for that part, but [tex]t_3[/tex] is still the recursive case so evaluate again in [tex]t_n[/tex]

[tex]t_3 = 2t_{2} + 3t_{1}[/tex]

[tex]t_2[/tex] and [tex]t_1\\[/tex] are define as base cases so you replace for it's numbers:

[tex]t_3 = 2(2) + 3(1) = 7[/tex]

Now return to [tex]t_4[/tex] and replace for the new values:

[tex]t_4 = 2(7) + 3(2) = 14 + 6 = 20[/tex]

So the final answer is 20

Translate triangle ABC using the vector ( 6, - 2).

Answers

Answer:

Move each vertex 6 to the right, and 2 to the bottom, rest of the triangle will come automatically. It should look similar to the one I drew.

After translation vertices of triangle ABC are (0, 3), (7, 3) and (6, -2).

What is the translation?

A translation in math moves a shape left or right and/or up or down. The translated shapes look exactly the same size as the original shape, and hence the shapes are congruent to each other. They just have been shifted in one or more directions.

The given vector is (6, -2).

From the given triangle vertices are (-6, 1), (1, 1) and (0, -4)

From the given vector, it shows 6 units right shift and 2 unit down shift.

Here, vertices of image are

(-6, 1)→(-6+6, 1-(-2))→(0, 3)

(1, 1)→(1+6, 1-(-2))→(7, 3)

(0, -4)→(0+6, -4-(-2))→(6, -2)

Hence, after translation vertices of triangle ABC are (0, 3), (7, 3) and (6, -2).

Three times the difference “2x minus 1” is the opposite of 9 times x. Solve for x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/5 - first box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's interpret this by using what I call the "isolated-x method."

First, we can simplify whatever's being affected in the parentheses.

#1: 3 times (2x) is equal to 6x

#2: 3 times (- 1 | equal to -1) results in -3, or + -3

So now we're working with 6x - 3 = -9x.

Now, we'll add a positive 9x to the -9x, since it can be hugely helpful to have one side result in 0.

Now we're working with 15x (6x + our new 9x) - 3 = 0

Since we have "whole like terms" we can now easily add 3 to each side.

Now we're working with 15x = 3 (0 + our new 3)

We can finish by dividing each side by 3.

15x = 3 now turns into 5x = 1.

To get from 5 to 1 you can multiply 5 by its "multiplicative inverse," also known as 1/5.

Therefore, x = 1/5

We can solve this in two steps, Comprehension and Solving. I'll go ahead and start with Comprehension.

If you have any questions feel free to ask away!!

Comprehension

We know according to the laws of geometry that all angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

We also know that in an isosceles angle, the base angles are equation to each other.

Now that we know what we need to know, we can setup an equation.

[tex]2x-6+(2x)=180[/tex]

We can do this because first of all, we know that 2x-6 is one of the angles and as per the base angles of an isosceles triangle we know that both base angles are x, therefore we can add 2x to get 180 degrees.

I'll start solving now.

Solving

We can solve this by using the equation we made above and solving it with algebra.

[tex]2x-6+2x=180\\4x-6=180\\4x=186\\x=46.5[/tex]

We know that x is equal to 46.5 degrees. We can check that by inputting it into the equation.

[tex]2(46.5)-6+2(46.5)=180?\\4(46.5)=186?\\46.5=46.5[/tex]

We've proven that our answer is correct by double checking,

Therefore the answer is 46.5!

Two sides of a triangle measure 27 inches and 32 inches. Which could represent the length of the third side?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The third side could have dimension x

32 - 27 < x < 32 + 27

         5 < x < 59

There are a few special triangles

Equilateral triangle could have legs

27, 32, 27

or

32, 27, 32

A right triangle could have the third side

√(27² + 32²) = √1753 which is about 41.87

or

√(32² - 27²) = √295 which is about 17.18

Notice all these fit within the original limits specified.

Answer:

The third side is greater than 5 but less than 59.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember: Given any two sides of a triangle, the length of the third side is greater than the difference but less than the sum of the length of the two given sides.

So 27 and 32       The given two sides

   32 - 27 = 5        Greater than the difference   (greater than 5)

   32 + 27 = 59     Less than the sum   (less than 59)

Answer:

first city: $3500second city: $5000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the hotel charges in the two cities. The relations we are given are ...

  x - y = -1500 . . . . . . second city hotel charge was 1500 more

  0.03x +0.095y = 580 . . . . . total tax paid was 580

Using the first equation, we can write an expression for x:

  x = y -1500

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  0.03(y -1500) +0.095y = 580

  0.125y = 625 . . . . . . . add 45 to both sides and simplify

  y = 5000 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 8

  x = 5000 -1500 = 3500

The hotel charges were ...

  First city: $3500

  Second city: $5000
