(1-2a)^2/6-a^2-(14-a^7)/3,

After a number of algebraic steps you get:

a =1.521282721...........etc., which is the right answer.

CPhill:  His/her expression can be written like this:

1/2 (4 sqrt(5))-(3 sqrt(5))×2

After a number of reducing steps we get:

-4sqrt(5), which is the correct  answer. Good luck.

If x= -sqrt(2)  (-√2)

Then what is the value of the expression x^3-x^2-3x+1 (please show steps)? Thanks!

If x=-sqrt(2) (-sqrt(2)), Then x=2

When you ask "what is the value of the expression", do you actually want the "numerical value" of the your expression? If that is so, then we sustitute 2 for every x in the expression, and we get:

2^3 - 2^2 - 3 + 1=8 - 4 -3 + 1=-1 + 1=0. Good Luck.

((4*sqrt(5))/(2))-((3*sqrt(5))(2)) =  

(1/2)[4*sqrt(5)] - (1/2)[3*sqrt(5)]  =      factor out the (1/2)

(1/2) [4sqrt(5) - 3sqrt(5)] =

(1/2)sqrt(5)  ...... or just..... sqrt(5)/2

Note......  [sqrt(2)]^2  =  sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)  = 2     [ not 4 ]

And

[sqrt(2)]^3  =  sqrt(2) * sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)  =  2*sqrt(2)

Thanks, Guest, for spotting my earlier error......[ proofread....proofread....proofread......  ]

mathe i think

x^3-x^2-3x+1

[-sqrt(2)]^3 - [-sqrt(2)]^2 -3[-sqrt(2)] + 1 =

-2sqrt(2) - 2 + 3 sqrt(2) + 1  =

sqrt(2)  - 1

We could only do that if we had this :

[x^2 * -3x] / [x^2  * 1 ] = 2     →   -3x = 2

To see why we can't do what you suggest....let's look at this, instead

[7 - 2] / [ 7  + 5]      if we "crossed out" the "7s" ???   ....we would end up with  -2/5

But.......

[7 - 2] / [7 + 5]   = 5/12      and that's not -2/5

Thus....the rule is....we can cancel multiplication on top and bottom, but not addition/subtraction

Does that make sense ???

Plus....look at what would be  your solution....x = -2/3....see if that works in the original problem.....[it won't   !!! ]

Hello admin i found a bit of a problem, how do you post questions and answers???   and it say "im not a robot" yet i actually am a robot.

oi moderator you there bro?

Oi thats my question i need it for maths !!!!      

what is the solution to this equation and what are the steps: (x^2-3x)/(x^2+1)=2

Multiply both sides by x^2 +1 to get rid of fractions, we get:

x^2 - 3x=2(x^2 +1)

x^2 - 3x=2x^2 +2

2x^2 + 2 -x^2 +3x=0x^

x^2 +3x +2=0, then we factor it into:

(x +2) (x +1)=0, so that,

x=-1 and x=-2

(x^2-3x)/(x^2+1)=2     multiply both sides by x^2 + 1

x^2 - 3x   = 2(x^2 + 1)   simplify

x^2 - 3x  = 2x^2 + 2    subtract x^2   and add  3x to both sides

0 = x^2 + 3x + 2       factor

(x + 1) ( x+ 2) = 0      and setting each factor to 0, we have that x =  - 1 or x = - 2

The correct answer should be 4 NOT 2 that CPhill got. He used $70 charge for "Essence of Yoga" instead of $80 per month. But the Math is right. Just a simple mistake.

5328 mod 129 = 

39  ...... is the remainder

Let m be the number of months it takes to equalize the costs.....and we have

90m + 35 =  80m + 75     subtract 80m, 35 from each side

10m = 40    divide both sides by 20

m = 4 [ They will have cost the same after 4 months ]

[Thanks to Guest for spotting my careless mis-type]

Here's the last one:

Let's post an image of the object we're talking  about:

There are 8 congruent triangles each having a surface area of:

(1/2)*e^2*sin(60)  =

(1/2)*e^2*sqrt(3)/2  =

(1/4)*(sqrt(3)* e^2  [sq units]   ........  and since there are 8 of them, the total surface area  =

8(1/4) (sqrt(3)e^2 =

2sqrt(3)*e^2  [square units]

How about just divide the altitude gain by the number of minutes:

378/7=54 feet/minute. Which is your average or mean change of altitude in ft/min.

Nevermind lol I understand how -3/4 is -0.75 75/100  

I see  what you did but the answer I got from the online problem is -0.75

and so it is 16 1/4-17 sixteen one fourths minus seventeen. I want to understand how they got the answer -0.75, thank you for the reply though.

16 + 1/4   - 17      notice that we can rewrite this as

16 - 17  + 1/4   =

-1  + 1/4  =

-3/4

Here's a second way

17  = 68/4

16 + 1/4   =  65/4   ....so....

65/4  - 68/4    =

-3/4

|-4d+6|=12

Either

-4d + 6  = 12                        or                   -4d + 6 = -12

                      subtract 6 from both sides

-4d  = 6                                                       -4d   = -18

                     divide both sides by -4

  d = -3/2                              or                    d = -18/-4   =  9/2
