Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

(a)


(5)/(a) +
(3)/(b) +
(7)/(c) = 0 ( multiply through by abc to clear the fractions )

5bc + 3ac + 7ab = 0 ( subtract 5bc from both sides )

3ac + 7ab = - 5bc ( factor a out of each term on the left side )

a(3c + 7b) = - 5bc ← divide both sides by (3c + 7b)

a = -
(5bc)/(3c+7b)

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

(b)

p =
(√(4r(q^2-s)) )/(q) ( multiply both sides by q )

pq =
√(4r(q^2-s)) ← square both sides

(pq)² = 4r(q² - s) ← distribute

p²q² = 4rq² - 4rs ← subtract 4rq² from both sides

p²q² - 4rq² = - 4rs ( multiply through by - 1 )

4rq² - p²q² = 4rs ← factor out q² from each term on the left side

q²(4r - p²) = 4rs ← divide both sides by (4r - p²)

q² =
(4rs)/(4r-p^2) ( take the square root of both sides )

q = ±
\sqrt{(4rs)/(4r-p^2) }
