Answer:
The sum of reciprocals is 2/3.
You don't need complex numbers to solve this, but if you try to find a and b you will need complex numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b = 2
a*b = 3
1/a + 1/b = x
(a*b)*(1/a + 1/b) = (a*b)x
b + a = (a*b)(x)
2 = 3x
x = 2/3
b = 2 - a
a*(2 - a) = 3
-a^2 + 2a = 3
-a^2 + 2a - 3 = 0
a^2 - 2a + 3 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
a^2 - 2a + 3 = a^2 - 2a + 1 + 2 = (a - 1)^2 + 2 = 0
(a - 1)^2 = -2
[tex]a_1 - 1 = \sqrt{2}i\\a_1 = 1+\sqrt{2}i\\\\a_2 - 1 = -\sqrt{2}i\\a_2 = 1 - \sqrt{2}i\\[/tex]
these options correspond to a and b from the original question.

Answer:
They played 4 games and paid $19
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 3 = 2x + 11 (You basically have to solve for X)
4x - 2x = 11 - 3 (move like terms together)
2x = 8
x = (8/2)
x = 4
This means they had to play 4 games.
To get how much they paid, just plug 4 into any one of those given equations (They will both give the same answer).
4x + 3 ⇒ 4(4) + 3 = $19
To check if this is true,
2x + 11 ⇒ 2(4) + 11 = $19
Therefore, they paid $19
Answer:
$19 and played 4 games
For an art project, you are using a piece of cloth that is cut out in the shape of a right triangle. Find the area of the cloth. A triangle with side lengths 6 inches, 6 inches, and 8.5 inches.
Answer:
[tex]A=17.99\ in^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A triangle with side lengths 6 inches, 6 inches, and 8.5 inches.
We need to find the area of the cloth.
The side lengths form an isosceles triangle. The formula for the area of the isosceles triangle is given by :
[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times h[/tex]
Where
[tex]h=\sqrt{a^2-\dfrac{b^2}{4}}[/tex]
So,
[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times \sqrt{a^2-\dfrac{b^2}{4}}[/tex]
Put a = 6 and b = 8.5
So,
[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 8.5\times \sqrt{6^2-\dfrac{8.5^2}{4}}\\\\A=17.99\ in^2[/tex]
So, the area of the cloth is equal to [tex]17.99\ in^2[/tex].

Hi guys! I really need help with this because im so stressed with my other classes and i need to pass this class in order to graduate. can someone help
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
For a right triangle there is a formula ---> a² + b² = c² ("c" is always the side not touching the right angle)
24² + 18² = c²
576 + 324 = c²
900 = c²
30 = c
The 3rd side is 30

Hasina and her sister Jaqa ride their bikes to school.
Hasina starts first. The equations show the distance
each girl is from home m minutes after Jada starts.
What is the solution of the system of equations? What
does this mean in this situation?
Hasina: d = 300m + 1,500
Jada: d= 300m
The solution to the system of equations is d = 300m, which means that after Jada starts, both Hasina and Jada will be 300m away from home.
The solution to the system of equations is d = 300m. This means that after Jada starts, both Hasina and Jada will be 300m away from home. This is because the equation for Hasina states that she is 300m + 1500m away from home. Since Jada is starting second, she will only be traveling 300m from home. Therefore, the solution of the system of equations is d = 300m.
To solve the system of equations, we can use substitution. First, we can substitute 300m for d in Jada's equation. This gives us 300m = 300m, which is a true statement. We can then substitute this value for d in Hasina's equation, which gives us 300m + 1500m = 300m. To solve for m, we can subtract 1500m from both sides, giving us 0 = -1500m. To isolate m on one side, we can divide both sides by -1500, giving us -1 = m. This means that after Jada starts, both Hasina and Jada are 300m away from home.
