let a and b be roots of x² - 4x + 2 = 0. find the value of a/b² +b/a²​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac a{b^2} + \dfrac b{a^2} = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Given that, the roots are a,b and } ~ x^2 -4x+2 = 0\\\\\text{So,}\\\\a+b = -\dfrac{-4}1 = 4\\\\ab = \dfrac 21 = 2\\\\\text{Now,}\\\\~~~~~\dfrac a{b^2} + \dfrac b{a^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{a^3 +b^3}{a^2b^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{(a+b)^3 -3ab(a+b)}{(ab)^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{4^3 -3(2)(4)}{2^2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{64-24}{4}\\\\\\=\dfrac{40}{4}\\\\\\=10[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{a}{b^2}+\dfrac{b}{a^2}=10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:   [tex]x^2-4x+2=0[/tex]

The roots of the given quadratic equation are the values of x when [tex]y=0[/tex].

To find the roots, use the quadratic formula:

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]a=1, \quad b=-4, \quad c=2[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies x & =\dfrac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(2)}}{2(1)}\\& =\dfrac{4 \pm \sqrt{8}}{2}\\& =\dfrac{4 \pm 2\sqrt{2}}{2}\\& =2 \pm \sqrt{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Let }a=2+\sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Let }b=2-\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies \dfrac{a}{b^2}+\dfrac{b}{a^2} & = \dfrac{2+\sqrt{2}}{(2-\sqrt{2})^2}+\dfrac{2-\sqrt{2}}{(2+\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\& = \dfrac{2+\sqrt{2}}{6-4\sqrt{2}}+\dfrac{2-\sqrt{2}}{6+4\sqrt{2}}\\\\& = \dfrac{(2+\sqrt{2})(6+4\sqrt{2})+(2-\sqrt{2})(6-4\sqrt{2})}{(6-4\sqrt{2})(6+4\sqrt{2})}\\\\& = \dfrac{12+8\sqrt{2}+6\sqrt{2}+8+12-8\sqrt{2}-6\sqrt{2}+8}{36+24\sqrt{2}-24\sqrt{2}-32}\\\\& = \dfrac{40}{4}\\\\& = 10\end{aligned}[/tex]

If 3x+4=133x+4=13, what is the value of x?

Answers

The value of x from the equation 3x + 4 = 31 and x + 4 = 13 is 9.

How to solve equation?

3x + 4 = 31

x + 4 = 13

From equation (2)

x + 4 = 13

subtract 4 from both sides

x = 13 - 4

x = 9

Substitute x = 9 into (1)

3x + 4 = 31

3(9) + 4 = 31

The cost of renting a bus for a field trip was split evenly among 20 students. At the last minute, 10 more students joined the trip. The cost of renting the bus was then evenly redistributed among all of the students. The cost for each of the original 20 students decreased by $1.50. What was the total cost of renting the bus, in dollars?

Answers

By solving a linear equation, we will see that the total cost for renting the bus is $90.

What was the total cost of renting the bus, in dollars?

Let's say that the total cost is C.

When there are 20 students, each student should pay:

p = C/20

When the other 10 students are added (for a total of 30) each student pays:

p' = C/30.

We know that the cost for each of the original 20 students decreased by $1.50, so:

p' = p - $1.50

Then we have 3 equations to work with:

p = C/20

p' = C/30.

p' = p - $1.50

Now we can replace the first and second equations into the third one:

C/30 = C/20 - $1.50

Now we can solve this linear equation for C:

C/20 - C/30 = $1.50

C*( 1/20 - 1/30) = $1.50

C*(30/600 - 20/600) = $1.50

C*(10/600) = $1.50

C*(1/60) = $1.50

C = 60*$1.50 = $90

So the total cost for renting the bus is $90.

we need the least or smallest common multiple for both numbers, 5 and 6.

this is very simple for the small numbers here, but in general we look at the prime factors of both numbers :

6 has the prime factors 2 and 3.

5 has only 5.

so, the LCM is 2×3×5 = 30.

they will meet again after 30 days.

FYI -

the LCM is for larger numbers a and b not automatically a×b. if both numbers share prime factors, the LCM can be smaller than a×b, as the LCM is using every overlapping prime factor only once.
