Which of the following statements best describes the value of the expression 5x – 4 when x = 1? A. The result is a fraction. B. The result is a prime number. C. The result is a composite number. D. The result is a whole number that is neither prime nor composite.

Answers

Answer 1

The statement which best describes the value of the expression at; x = 1 is; Choice D; The result is a whole number that is neither prime nor composite.

Which of the statements best describes the value of the expression 5x – 4 when x = 1?

It follows from the task content that the value of the expression be determined at; x = 1 and consequently, the result be classified as a whole number, prime number or composite number.

Hence, when x = 1;

5x - 4 = 5(1) - 4.

= 5 - 4

= 1.

Hence, the result is 1 which can be classified as a whole number (integer). However, it is not a prime number and neither is it a composite number.

Therefore, Choice D is correct.

Answer:

(i) (b² - 2ac)/c²(ii) (3abc - b³)/a³

Step-by-step explanation:

α and β are the roots of the equation:

ax² + bx + c = 0

Sum of the roots is:

α + b = -b/a

Product of the roots is:

αβ = c/a

Solving the following expressions:

(i)

1/α² + 1/β² =(α² + β²) / α²β² =((α + β)² - 2αβ) / (αβ)² = ((-b/a)² - 2c/a) / (c/a)² = (b²/a² - 2c/a) * a²/c² = b²/c² - 2ac/c² =(b² - 2ac)/c²

----------------

(ii)

α³ + β³ =(α + β)(α² - αβ + β²) =(α + β)((α + β)² - 3αβ) = (α + β)³ - 3αβ(α + β) =(-b/a)³ - 3(c/a)(-b/a) =-b³/a³ + 3bc/a²= 3abc/a³ - b³/a³=(3abc - b³)/a³

[tex] \huge \underline{\tt Question} :[/tex]

If α and β are the roots of the equation ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b and c are constants such that a ≠ 0, find in terms of a, b and c expressions for :

[tex] \tt \dfrac{1}{\alpha ^2} + \dfrac{1}{\beta ^2}[/tex]α³ + β³

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \huge \underline{\tt Answer} :[/tex]

[tex] \bf \dfrac{1}{\alpha ^2} + \dfrac{1}{\beta ^2} = \dfrac{b^2 - 2ac}{c^2 }[/tex][tex] \bf \alpha ^3 + \beta ^3 = \dfrac{ - b^3 + 3abc}{a^3}[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \huge \underline{\tt Explanation} :[/tex]

As, α and β are the roots of the equation ax² + bx + c = 0

We know that :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{Sum \: of \: roots = \dfrac{- coefficient \: of \: x}{coefficient \: of \: x^2}}}}[/tex][tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{Product \: of \: roots = \dfrac{constant \: term}{coefficient \: of \: x^2}}}}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \alpha + \beta = \dfrac{-b}{a}[/tex]

and

[tex] \tt : \implies \alpha\beta = \dfrac{c}{a}[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Now, let's solve given values :

[tex] \bf \: \: \: \: 1. \: \dfrac{1}{\alpha ^2} + \dfrac{1}{\beta ^2}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \dfrac{\beta ^2 + \alpha ^2}{\alpha ^2 \beta ^2}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \dfrac{\alpha ^2 + \beta ^2}{\alpha ^2 \beta ^2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Now, by using identity :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{a^2+ b^2 = (a+b)^2 -2ab}}}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \dfrac{(\alpha + \beta)^2 - 2 \alpha\beta}{(\alpha\beta)^2}[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

Now, by substituting values of :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{\alpha + \beta = \dfrac{-b}{a}}}}[/tex][tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{\alpha\beta = \dfrac{c}{a}}}}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \dfrac{\Bigg(\dfrac{-b}{a}\Bigg)^2 - 2 \times \dfrac{c}{a}}{\Bigg(\dfrac{c}{a}\Bigg)^2}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies \dfrac{\dfrac{b^2}{a^2} - \dfrac{2c}{a}}{\dfrac{c^2}{a^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\tt : \implies \dfrac{\dfrac{b^2}{a^2} - \dfrac{2ac}{a^{2} }}{\dfrac{c^2}{a^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\tt : \implies \dfrac{\dfrac{b^2 - 2ac}{a^2 }}{\dfrac{c^2}{a^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\tt : \implies \dfrac{b^2 - 2ac}{\cancel{a^2} } \times \dfrac{ \cancel{a^2}}{c^2}[/tex]

[tex]\tt : \implies \dfrac{b^2 - 2ac}{c^2 }[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \underline{\bf Hence, \: \dfrac{1}{\alpha ^2} + \dfrac{1}{\beta ^2} = \dfrac{b^2 - 2ac}{c^2 }}[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

[tex] \bf \: \: \: \: 2. \: \alpha ^3 + \beta ^3 [/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

By using identity :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{a^3+ b^3 = (a+b)(a^2 -ab + b^2)}}}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies (\alpha + \beta)(\alpha ^2 - \alpha\beta + \beta ^2)[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies (\alpha + \beta)(\alpha ^2 + \beta ^2 - \alpha\beta)[/tex]

[tex] \\ [/tex]

By using identity :

[tex] \underline{\boxed{\bf{a^2+ b^2 = (a+b)^2 -2ab}}}[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies (\alpha + \beta)(\alpha + \beta)^2 -2 \alpha\beta - \alpha\beta)[/tex]

[tex] \tt : \implies (\alpha + \beta)((\alpha + \beta)^2 -3 \alpha\beta)[/tex]

The bottom of a ladder leaning against a wall is 1.5 m from the bottom of the wall. The ladder is 5.5 m long. Find how high the top of the ladder is above the ground, correct to one decimal place.

A. 5.8 m
B. 5.7 m
C. 5.2 m
D. 5.3 m​

Answers

Answer: D.  5.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder leaning against the wall causes it to forma  right angle.  

The right angle has two sides , which is  the two legs, and the hypotenuse.

Using the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2 , a  and b are the two legs and c is the hypotenuse. In this case, a will be the wall, b will be 1.5 m  and the ladder which is 5.5 m will be the hypotenuse.  

Input the values for a and c to sole for b using the formula.

1.5^2 + b^2 = 5.5^2

2.25 + b^2 = 30.25

-2.25                 -2.25

   b^2 = 28

   b = [tex]\sqrt{28}[/tex]

  b = 5.2915   rounded to one decimal place is the same as rounding it to the nearest tenth, and 5.29 rounded to the nearest tenth is 5.3.

Height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall, correct to one decimal place is 5.3 m

hence option D is correct.

According to Pythagoras theorem

In a right triangle

[tex]\rm H^2 = P^2 + B^2[/tex]

[tex]\rm P = \sqrt {H^2 - B^2 }.........(1)\\where \\H = Hypotenuse \; of \; right\; triangle\\B = Base\; of \; the \; right\; triangle \\P = Perpendicular \; of \; the\; right\; triangle[/tex]

In the given situation the the ladder forms the right triangle with the wall

Length of the ladder = 5.5 m

Length of the base of ladder from the wall = 1.5 m

Let K be the height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall.

Hence  from equation (1) we can write

[tex]\rm K = \sqrt{5.5^2 - 1.5^2} = \sqrt{28} = 5.291 \approx \bold{5.3}[/tex]  m

Height of top of ladder above the ground  that is resting on the wall, correct to one decimal place is 5.3 m

hence option D is correct.
