if a = x^2+xy-6, b =6xy -2x^2+1, c = 3x^2+7-3xy , find a+b-c
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP1:
y Simplify — x
Equation at the end of step1:
(y2) (y2) y (((((x2)-(————•(x2)))+6xy)+((3•————)•x))+(5•—))-y 3 5 x
STEP 2 :
y2 Simplify —— 5
Equation at the end of step2:
(y2) y2 5y (((((x2)-(————•(x2)))+6xy)+((3•——)•x))+——)-y 3 5 x
STEP 3 :
y2 Simplify —— 3
Equation at the end of step3:
y2 3xy2 5y (((((x2)-(——•x2))+6xy)+————)+——)-y 3 5 x
STEP4:Equation at the end of step 4
x2y2 3xy2 5y (((((x2)-————)+6xy)+————)+——)-y 3 5 x
STEP 5 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
5.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 3 as the denominator :
x2 x2 • 3 x2 = —— = —————— 1 3
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
5.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
x2 • 3 - (x2y2) 3x2 - x2y2 ——————————————— = —————————— 3 3
Equation at the end of step5:
(3x2 - x2y2) 3xy2 5y (((———————————— + 6xy) + ————) + ——) - y 3 5 x
STEP6:Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
6.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 3 as the denominator :
6xy 6xy • 3 6xy = ——— = ——————— 1 3
STEP7:Pulling out like terms
7.1 Pull out like factors :
3x2 - x2y2 = -x2 • (y2 - 3)
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
7.2 Factoring: y2 - 3
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 3 is not a square !!
