I don't know about factoring primes but my calculator says 8.27677 in other words you omitted the "2" in red. 

This Q has been asked before.....do a search for it....

Impulse = change in momentum

100 N = m * change in v

100N = 20 kg * change in v

5 m/s = change in velocity  

if the impulse is applied in line with the direction of travel, the object will now be travelling 55 m/s

if the impulse is applied OPPOSITE to the direction of travel , the object is now traveling 45 m/s

7t + h = 67

5t +h  = 49      subtract bottom eq from top

2t = 18      t = 9

5(t) + h = 49

5(9) + h = 49

45 + h = 49

h = 4                                 Edited for mistake Guest pointed out to me...Thanx !

Person A does 1/5 of the job in an hour.

Person B does 1/x of the job in an hour.

A and B do 1/5+1/x of the job in an hour.

1/5+1/x = 1/2.

\(\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{2}\)

\(x=\frac{10}{3}\) hours.

You are very welcome!

:P

Thank you! Sorry for the late response.

I need help, I can't use the calculator of this page, the web says "access denied for adblock users" but I don't have any adblock, i don't know what is happening.

(a - 1/a)^2 = a^2 +1/a^2 - 2 = 25/36,

a^2 + 1/a^2 + 2 = 25/36 + 4 = 169/36,

(a + 1/a)^2 = 169/36,

a + 1/a  = 13/6.

Prime factorize 567

3^4*7^1

We can factor out a 3 to get

\(3\sqrt[3]{21}\)

or around 8.767

Sum, S, of the  first 20  terms  is given by

S   =   ( a₁  +  a₂₀) * (n /2)   

790  =  (-8 +  a₂₀)  * (20/2)

790  = (-8 + a₂₀) * 10               divide both sides by 10

79 =  -8 +  a₂₀       add 8 to both sides

87   = a₂₀

a -  1/a =  5/6                 multiply through by a

a^2  - 1  = (5/6)a           multiply through by 6

6a^2  - 6  = 5a              rearrange as  

6a^2  -  5a  -  6  =  0        factor

(3a  + 2) ( 2a - 3)  = 0

Set each factor to 0  and solve for a   and we have that

a = -2/3   (reject)     or     a = 3/2

So

a +  1/a  =

3/2  +  1 / (3/2)  =

3/2 +  2/3  =

13 / 6

If a > 0 and a - 1/a = 5/6, then find a + 1/a.

It takes the cyclist of 6 mph 10/3 minutes for 1 lap.
It takes the cyclist of 9 mph 20/9 minutes for 1 lap.
It takes the cyclist of 12 mph 5/3 minutes for 1 lap.
It takes the cyclist of 15 mph 4/3 minutes for 1 lap.

The LCM [10/3, 20/9, 5/3, 4/3] = 20/3 = 6 2/3 minutes when all four will meet at the start for the first time.
By the way, when they meet the first time, they will have done:2, 3, 4, 5 laps each respectively.
6 2/3 x 4 =26 2/3 minutes after noon hour when they will all meet for the 4th time.

1 3/4  x 3/4 = 21/16

1 3/4 - 21/16 =   28/16 - 21/16 = 7/16

2^8 is 256 , so this is equivalent to:

2^8(x-2) =2^{(-x-7)    Now equate the exponents}

8(x-2) = -x-7

8x-16 = -x-7

9x = 9

x=1

I'm not sure where you learned this, but there is a lot of extraneous math in your solution. All the "1^ -1" is completely unnecessary and confusing, although it does somehow give the correct solution. Here's a simpler way to do it:

256^x-2 = 2^-x-7 | 256 is equal to 2⁸, so you can make the bases the same

2^8x-16=2^-x-7 | Now, you can take away the bases and solve algebraically. If you perform log₂ on both sides, you're left with just the exponents, so I'm just not showing a step.

8x-16=-x-7 | Next, you solve algebraically.

8x+x-16+16=-x+x-7+16

9x=9 | Divide both sides by nine.

x=1 | You have your answer!

Now, let's plug it back in to check if it works.

256^x-2 = 2^-x-7 | Replace x with our answer, 1

256^1-2=2^-1-7 | Change 256 to 2⁸

2^8-16=2^-1-7 | Simplify

2^-8=2^-8

It works! It may look hard at first, but once you try it out it's much easier and saves you the extra steps.

TLDR; Match your bases, take the log and solve algebraically.

i agree, you should refix this question, so it would make a little more sense, or is it a trick question:)???!!!!!

Solve for x :
256^(x - 2) = 2^(-x - 7)

-256^(x - 2) = (-1)^1·2^(8 x - 16):
(-1)^1·2^(-x - 7) = (-1)^1·2^(8 x - 16)

Equate exponents of -1 and 2 on both sides:
1 = 1 and -x - 7 = 8 x - 16

All equations give x = 1 as the solution:
 
x = 1

i haven't been going through any troubles, but i feel like i will, with your technical difficulties!

Constant is a number that doesn't have a variable next to it.

All of them have x next to them. So, No constant in this equation also we could say the constant= 0.....

(Good question: Is \(\frac{4}{x} ,\frac{1}{x^4}\) considered to have variables?) 

Yes!

\(\frac{4}{x}\)=4x^-1 

\(\frac{1}{x^4}=\)x^-4

So The constant of this equation is 0 (I.e. there isn')
