Find the value of c:
4c + x = 6
-3c - x = 2
| \(\frac{16}{21}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{7}{9}\) | |
| 5\(\frac{5}{6}\) | |
| 8 |
You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of x:
4c + x = 6
x = 6 - 4c
then substitute the result (6 - 4c) into the second equation:
-3c - 1(6 - 4c) = 2
-3c + (-1 x 6) + (-1 x -4c) = 2
-3c - 6 + 4c = 2
-3c + 4c = 2 + 6
c = 8
c = \( \frac{8}{1} \)
c = 8
Simplify (9a)(7ab) - (9a2)(7b).
| 2b | |
| 0a2b | |
| 126ab2 | |
| b2 |
To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.
(9a)(7ab) - (9a2)(7b)
(9 x 7)(a x a x b) - (9 x 7)(a2 x b)
(63)(a1+1 x b) - (63)(a2b)
63a2b - 63a2b
0a2b
Solve for a:
a2 - 10a + 24 = 0
| 5 or -6 | |
| -5 or -6 | |
| 4 or 6 | |
| 8 or -9 |
The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:
a2 - 10a + 24 = 0
(a - 4)(a - 6) = 0
For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (a - 4) or (a - 6) must equal zero:
If (a - 4) = 0, a must equal 4
If (a - 6) = 0, a must equal 6
So the solution is that a = 4 or 6
The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?
| 96π | |
| 729π | |
| 64π | |
| 49π |
The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:
v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 6)
v = 96π
Simplify (y - 6)(y + 4)
| y2 - 2y - 24 | |
| y2 - 10y + 24 | |
| y2 + 10y + 24 | |
| y2 + 2y - 24 |
To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:
(y - 6)(y + 4)
(y x y) + (y x 4) + (-6 x y) + (-6 x 4)
y2 + 4y - 6y - 24
y2 - 2y - 24
