need help finding the solution(s) to this equation..
\[y ^{-1}-22^{-1 \over 2}+120=0\]
1/y -(sqrt[22])+120 = 0 y = 1/(sqrt[22]-120)
wrong 1/y -(1/(sqrt[22]))+120 = 0 1/y = (1/(sqrt(22) - 120) = (1-120*sqrt[22])/sqrt[22]) y = sqrt[22]/(1-120sqrt[22])
wait, so the first thing you wrote is wrong. But this second one is right?
yep
oh ok, so there is only one answer? \[\sqrt{22}\over 1-120\sqrt{22}\] is this correct?
the line didn't show up but it's supposed to be a fraction
he left :(. Polpak, does that look correct to you?
Sorry, one sec
\[\frac{1}{y} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{22}} + 120 = 0\] \[\implies \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{22}} - 120\] \[\implies \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{22}} - \frac{120\sqrt{22}}{\sqrt{22}}\] \[\implies \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1-120\sqrt{22}}{\sqrt{22}}\] \[\implies y =\frac{\sqrt{22}}{1-120\sqrt{22}} \]
Yeah, that's correct
can i get some help again please..
the root 22 on the bottom part wouldn't type in my online assignment.. so it must not be there..
Are you certain the original equation is correct?
i will double check.
wow. I don't know why i keep doing that..but I forgot the y.. it is all the same except there is a y after the 22
\[y ^{-1}-22y ^{-1 \over 2}+120=0\]
sorry!!
Ah, that's nicer certainly.
