If $16a^4 + 36a^2b^2 + 81b^4 = 91$ and $4a^2 + 9b^2 - 6ab = 13$, then what is the value of $3ab$ ? |
$\frac{3}{2}$ -3 $-\frac{3}{2}$ 5 |
$-\frac{3}{2}$ |
If $16a^4 + 36a^2b^2 + 81b^4 = 91$ $4a^2 + 9b^2 - 6ab = 13$---(A) Then what is the value of $3ab$ ? x4 + x2y2 + y4 = (x2 – xy + y2) (x2 + xy + y2) $4a^2 + 9b^2 + 6ab = \frac{91}{13}$ = 7-----(B) From A and B 12ab = -6 3ab = \(\frac{-6 \times 3}{12}\) 3ab = $-\frac{3}{2}$ |
