Worked solution

10(a)

1. Substitute $x=-3$ into the given equation and evaluate.

Given 3v=25−x23v=\sqrt{25-x^2},

when x=−3x=-3,
3v=25−(−3)2=25−9=16=4.3v=\sqrt{25-(-3)^2}=\sqrt{25-9}=\sqrt{16}=4.

2. Solve for $v$ by dividing both sides by 3.

3v=43v=4
v=43.v=\frac{4}{3}.

Answer

v=43v=\dfrac{4}{3}

10(b)

1. Square both sides to remove the square root.

3v=25−x23v=\sqrt{25-x^2}

Squaring both sides,
9v2=25−x2.9v^2=25-x^2.

2. Rearrange the equation to make $x^2$ the subject.

9v2=25−x29v^2=25-x^2
x2=25−9v2.x^2=25-9v^2.

3. Take the square root to make $x$ the subject.

x=±25−9v2.x=\pm\sqrt{25-9v^2}.

Answer

x=±25−9v2x=\pm\sqrt{25-9v^2}
