a = 2 and b = 1

=======================================================

Explanation:

Set the expression equal to the given form we want. Then square both sides so we get rid of the outer-most square root

In the third line, I used the rule that (x+y)^2 = x^2+2xy+y^2

-------------------

At this point, we equate the non-radical and radical terms to get this system of equations

The second equation turns into 4 = 2ab when we divide both sides by sqrt(6)

Then 4 = 2ab turns into ab = 2 after dividing both sides by 2.

We're told that a,b are rational numbers. Let's assume that they are integers (which is a subset of the rational numbers).

If so, then we have these four possibilities

If a,b are negative, then you'll find that overall is negative. But this contradicts that is positive. So a,b must be positive.

Let's assume that a = 1 and b = 2. If so, then,

2a^2+3b^2 = 2(1)^2+3(2)^2 = 14

but we want that result to be 11 instead.

Let's try a = 2 and b = 1

2a^2+3b^2 = 2(2)^2+3(1)^2 = 11

which works out perfectly.

Therefore,

---------------------------------

Checking the

Use a calculator to find that

both have the same decimal approximation, so this is a fairly informal way to confirm the answer.

Another thing you can do is to take advantage of the idea that if x = y, then x-y = 0

So if you want to see if two things are equal, you subtract them. You should get exactly 0 or something very small (pretty much equal to 0).

the answer to this question is 3/19

step-by-step explanation:

c: y > - 1/6x + 1

step-by-step explanation:

dashed line - meaning this < or > also not equal

solid line - meaning this < or > also equal

your answer is c because y > means up & it's shaded up, but y < means down

hope this ! : )
