Find the value of ((7-6.35)÷6.5+9.9))/((1.2÷36+1.2÷0.25-21/16)÷169/24)
SOLUTI0N
We shall use BODMAS rule to solve this equation where we solve the numerator first ((7-6.35) ÷6.5+9.9)) we start we the value in brackets
0.65/6.5+9.9 then we do division
0.1+9.9=1 thus the value for numerator is 1
We now proceed to denominator
(1.2÷36+1.2÷0.25-21/16)÷169/24) we start with the values in brackets,
(0.03333+4.8-21/16)/169/24)
(4.83333-21/16)/(169/24)
(4.8333-1.3125)/(7.0416667)
3.520833/7.041667= 0.5
Thus the solution for denominator is 0.5
To get our final answer we divide the numerator by denominator
= 1/0.5 =2
Thus ((7-6.35)÷6.5+9.9))/((1.2÷36+1.2÷0.25-21/16)÷169/24) = 2
Solve for x ( x2+1/x-4 ) - (x2-1/x+)3 =23
SOLUTION
To solve the above problem we multiply all the individual values by the product of all denominator then we equate together
( x2+1/x-4 ) - (x2-1/x+)3 =23/1
(x+3)(X-4)(X2+1)/(x-4) – (x+3)(x-4)(x2-1)/(x+3) = 23(x+3)(x-4) like terms cancel out
(x2+1)(x+3) – (x2-1)(x-4) = 23(x-4)(x+3)
X2(x+3)+1(x+3) – (x2(x-4)-1(x-4)) =23(x(x-4)+3(x-4)
X3+3x2+x+3 – (x3-4x2-x+4) =23(x2-4x+3x-12) collecting like terms together
X3-x3+3x2+4x2+x+x+3-4 =23(x2-x-12)
7x2+2x-1=23x2-23x-276 we combine the two equations and collect like terms together
7x2-23x2+2x+23x-1+276 = 0
-16x2+25x+275=0 we solve the quadratic equation
Product = -16*275 = -4400 and sum = 25 the two numbers whose sum is 25 and product is 4400 are -55 and 80 we substitute them in our equation to solve
-16x2+80x-55x+275 = 0
-16x(x-5)-55(x-5) = 0 therefore -16x -55=0,-16x=55 x = -55/16 = -3.4375
Or x-5=0, x=5 thus x = 5 0r -3.4375
Thus for (x2+1/x-4) – (x2-1/x+3)=23 , x = 5 or -3.4375
Find the value of √(25(1/log6 5)+49(1/log87))
SOLUTION
We first solve 1/log65 and we know from logarithm rules that for, log AB = C then it implies that A C=B thus we use this basic principle to evaluate 1/log65
Let log65= x then we look for x
If log65= x then 6x=5 thus introduce log10 to both sides log6x =log5
Thus x = log5/log6 = 0.898244, 1/log65 = 1/0.898244 =1.1132828
We first solve 1/log87 and we know from logarithm rules that for, log AB = C then it implies that A C=B thus we use this basic principle to evaluate 1/log87
Let log87= x then we look for x
If log87= x, then 8x=7 thus introduce log10 to both sides log8x =log7
Thus x = log7/log8 = 0.935785, 1/log87= 1/0.935785 =1.0686156
√ (25(1/log6 5) +49(1/log87) = √(25*1.1132828 + 49*1.0686156) = √(80.1945324196) = 8.95514 ~ 9
