ln (x2 - 9) = 2
Applying exponentials to both sides x 2 - 9 = e 2x 2 = 7.39 + 9 x = /16.39 x = 4.05 |

Solve the following equations: (2x 1/3 - 3)(x 1/3+3) = 0 x 1/3 = 3/2 x = 27/8 Are you sure about that complex no question? I don't see a way to remove the i. Anyway, Ill get back to that later |

(5 + 2i)(- 3 -5i)
i think the answer is -31i - 5 |

I miss this thread. I was banned by Seun for my expressing my heterodox views on his forum. Find an explicit formula for the squence defined by a 1=3, a n=3a n-1+1. I take it this is an arithmetic sequence that abides by the formula a n = a 1+ (n-1)d, where d is the common difference between two consecutive terms. Given: a 1 = 3, and a n=3a n-1+1 Find a 2a 2 = 3a 1 + 1 a 2 = 3(3) + 1 = 10 d = a 2 - a 1 = 10 - 3 = 7 Therefore, a n = a n = a 1+ (n-1)d = 3 + (n-1)7 = 7n-4 |

Yes, that's correct. (5+2i)(-3-5i) = -3(5+2i)-5(5+2i) = -15-6i-25i-10i 2keep in mind i 2 = -1 -simplifies to -5-31i |

or the imaginary number simplify the following and express your answer in the form of a + bi where a & b are real numbers.   change 3+4i to polar coordinates |

Roots of complex nos nearly made me fight my teacher back then. 1. 2i/(i-2i) = 2i/-i = -2 2. 5+i/i 3 = 5+i/-i = -5/i - 1 = 5(-1/i) - 1 = 5i - 1 3. r = sqrt(3 2+4 2) = sqrt(25) = 5 Theta = tan -1(4/3) or c0s(4/3)/sin(4/3) = 53 oTherefore polar form is 5(c0s(53) + isin(53)) |

Should we find X as well? |
|

|
|
|

There's no need to find X, because it is most likely that your coefficients A and B will be valid for all X.

please do anybody have any info about Aptech or NIIT. i just want to know which is best and which is worth a life career. do they really teach? are there job offers? is it worth the money they are demanding? do Aptech or NIIT students have lots of job opportunities? please help.

solve the system
2x - 2y - z = -1
x + 2y + 2z = 9
x + y - z = 8
ln x + ln(2x + 1) = 0

ln x + ln(2x + 1) = 0 lnx(2x+1) = 0
elnx(2x+1) = e0
x(2x+1) = 1
2x2 +x - 1 = 0
(2x - 1)(x+1) = 0
x = -1; 1/2
I am not sure about your method . . . . you shouldn't get 2 values for x . . . . ln x + ln(2x + 1) = 0 ln(2x + 1) = -lnx e lnx(2x+1) = e -lnx2x+1 = x x = -1 |

That's incorrect. You lost one solution. Check very well and you will see why.
ln x + ln(2x + 1) = 0
In fact, this is a good reason why checking your solution is important.
According to you, x = -1 . . .
checking x = -1
ln (-1 ) is undefined.

Solve these:
A man walked for 5 hours, first along a level road, then up a hill, and then he turned around and walked back to the starting point along the same path. He walks 4 mph on the level, 3 mph uphill, and 6 mph downhill. Find the distance he walked.
Uptown is 20 miles frm Ekene's home in Ajegunle. He Drives 60 mph going to a meeting (he is almost late) but coming home the weather is bad and drives 30 mph. What is his average speed for the time he is on the road?

Total time to get Uptown (doing 20 miles at 60 mph) - 1/3 hrs Total time to get back downtown (doing 20 miles at 30 mph) - 2/3 hrs Total distance covered - 40 miles Total time taken - 1/3 hrs + 2/3 hrs = 1 hr therefore, average speed - 40 mph |

Find A and B such that COS(100X-45degrees) = ACOS(100X) + BSIN(100X)
Cos(100X-45)=Acos100X + Bsin100X cos100Xcos45 + sin100Xsin45=Acos100X +Bsin100X cos45cos100X +sin45sin100x=Acos100X + Bsin100X from the above equation A=cos45 and B=sin45 but cos45=sin45=0.7071 therefor A=B=0.7071 |

MyTempID, I will come to your question later. It requires a lot of solving.
Anyway, this question is specifically for Pmann or anyone who wishes to take on the challenge. It involves Calculus:
An open-ended rectangular water tank of diameter 3.1m contains water which flows out through a tap at the bottom. The taphole has a diameter of 0.075m. The height of the water is 3.5m at time t0 and take the density of the water as 7100Kgm-3. If the velocity at the taphole is V = sqrt(2gh) where h(t) is the instantaneous height and gravity is 9.81ms-2, find the time taken to empty the container.
Hint: You need to integrate dh/dt

this would be much easier if we knew the flow rate or relevant equations solve ln(x^2 + x - 20) - ln(x+5) = 1 logx + log(2x+5) - log 7 |

OK: The relevant equation is the continuity equation: rate of mass accumulation = rate of mass in - rate of mass out Rate of mass in is zero Rate of mass out = density x velocity through taphole x Area of taphole Therefore, this is the equation you start with: the time differential of mass = 0 - (density x velocity through taphole x Area of taphole) remember: mass = density x volume |
