Given that \( \frac{8x+m}{x^2-3x-4} \equiv \frac{5}{x+1}+\frac{3}{x-4} \)
Answer Details
8x+mx2−3x−4≡5x+1+3x−4
8x+mx2−3x−4 ≡ 5(x−1)+3(x+4)x2−3x−4
multiplying both sides by x2-3x-4
8x+m ≡ 5(x-4)+3(x+1)
8x + m ≡ 5x - 20 + 3x + 3
8x - 5x - 3x + m = -20 + 3
m = -17

If 36, \( \frac{9}{4} \) and q are consecutive terms of an exponential sequence (G.P), find the sum of p and q.
Answer Details
GP : 36, P, q4 , q, ... p + q = ?
| Recall, | common | ratio, | r | = | TnTn-1 | = | T2T1 | = | T3T2 | = | T4T3 |
| ∴ | P36 | = | 94 | ÷ | p | ; | p2 | = | 94 | x | 36 | ; | p2 | = | 81 |
| p | = | 9 | ∴ | r | = | T2T1 | = | 936 | = | 14 |
| Also | r | = | T4T3 | = | q | ÷ | 94 |
∴ 14
= q ÷ 94
;
94 = 4q
| 16q | = | 9 | , | q | = | 916 | ∴ | p | + | q | = | 9 | + | 916 | = | 9 | 916 |

General form of equation of a circle.
x2
+ y2
+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0
a = -g, b = -f., r2 = g2 + f2 - c
the centre of the circle is (a,b)
comparing the equation with the general form of equation of circle.
2x2

- x - 3y - 41
= x2
+ y2
+ 2gx + 2fy + c
2x2

- x - 3y - 41 = 0
divide through by 2
g = −14 ; 2g = −12
f = −34 ; 2f = −32
a = -g → - −14 ; = 14
b = -f → - (\frac{-3}{4}\) = (\frac{3}{4}\)
