It's not an equation, there's nothing to solve. "Solve for" applies to a variable, as in "solve for x", but that does not apply here. ----------- This can only be simplified, or reduced, by dividing the denominator into the numerator.

Polynomials-and-rational-expressions/292116: Find the polynominal using real coefficents. Degree 4; zeros ;2 multiplicity 2,4i I got x^4-4x^3-3x^2-40+208 but it is wrong. I am confused can someone please help? 1 solutions Answer 211100 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 11:34:46 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the polynominal using real coefficents. Degree 4; zeros ;2 multiplicity 2,4i I got x^4-4x^3-3x^2-40+208 but it is wrong. I am confused can someone please help? ------------- Complex roots come in conjugate pairs, so -4i is also a root. If you mean the multiplicity of the the 2 root is 2: (x-2)*(x-2)*(x+4i)*(x-4i) = =

Linear-systems/292113: how do you simplify linear equations like y=3/2x+2 1 solutions Answer 211096 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 11:13:05 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! how do you simplify linear equations like y=3/2x+2 -------------- That's as simple as that one gets. It's in slope-intercept form. It can by put into "standard form" y=3/2x+2 2y = 3x + 4 3x - 2y = -4 or 3x - 2y + 4 = 0 ------------------ Standard form has the x and y terms on the same side, and uses integers. "Simplified" can be a matter of opinion.

Quadratic_Equations/291689: A ball is projected into the air. Its height at time t is given by the equation h = -16t^2 + 60x +1. When will the height be 8 feet? 1 solutions Answer 211094 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 10:43:54 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! A ball is projected into the air. Its height at time t is given by the equation h = -16t^2 + 60x +1. When will the height be 8 feet? ----------------- When h = 8 8 = -16t^2 + 60t + 1 (I think you meant 60t, not 60x) -16t^ + 60t - 7 = 0 Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE quadratic equation (work shown, graph etc) Quadratic equation (in our case ) has the following solutons: For these solutions to exist, the discriminant should not be a negative number. First, we need to compute the discriminant : . Discriminant d=3152 is greater than zero. That means that there are two solutions: . Quadratic expression can be factored: Again, the answer is: 0.120541394047725, 3.62945860595227. Here's your graph: ------------------- x1 and x2 are the values of t. There are 2 of them, 8 feet going up, and 8 feet coming back down.

Probability-and-statistics/292102: A box contains exactly 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 green balls. If two balls are selected at random one after the other without replacing the first, what is the probability that the first one is red and the second one is green? 1 solutions Answer 211093 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 10:31:40 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! A box contains exactly 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 green balls. If two balls are selected at random one after the other without replacing the first, what is the probability that the first one is red and the second one is green? ----------------- A total of 12 balls. 5 of 12 chances for the 1st ball being red. 11 balls are left. 3 of 11 chances for the 2nd ball being green. (5/12)*(3/11) = 5/44

Square-cubic-other-roots/292103: Square root property. x2 (x squares) = 7x 1 solutions Answer 211092 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 10:29:05 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! x(x-7) = 0 x = 0 x = 7 --------- PS It's x squared, not squares. Typos can be forgiven, but not knowing could mean the end of the world.

Rate-of-work-word-problems/292091: It takes Sal 5 hours to paint a house. It takes Tom 3 hours to paint the same house. How long will it take to paint the house if both of them work together? 1 solutions Answer 211088 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 09:45:46 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! It takes Sal 5 hours to paint a house. It takes Tom 3 hours to paint the same house. How long will it take to paint the house if both of them work together? ---------------------- If you add the hours, it's 8 hours. Doesn't seem right, unless they drink a lot of beer and watch TV. --------------------------- Use the reciprocals, then you can add them. Sal does 1/5 of the house per hour. Tom does 1/3 per hour. Together, they do 1/5 + 1/3 per hour = 8/15 8/15 house per hour --> 15/8 hours per house. 15/8 is it, or 1.875 hours. -------------------------- There's a shortcut, product/sum 3*5/(3+5) = 15/8

logarithm/292093: Solve the equation, log9 (b + 4) - log9 (b - 3) = log9 8. I tried to figure out a couple of ways; and came up with the answer that b=4. Is this answer correct? 1 solutions Answer 211086 by Alan3354(30993)   on 2010-04-14 09:33:03 (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the equation, log9 (b + 4) - log9 (b - 3) = log9 8. I tried to figure out a couple of ways; and came up with the answer that b=4. Is this answer correct? -------------- Sub 4, see if it's correct: Since the base is consistent, log(8) - log(1) = log(8) log(1) = 0 for any base, so it's correct.
