Explain why the square root of a number is defined to be equal to that number to the 1/2 power.

Answers

Answer 1

    This is because of the law of indices which says:

[tex]\sqrt[x]{n}[/tex]= [tex]x^{\frac{1}{m} }[/tex]

    So, if we have:

[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex]

    Then the following will be true because of this math law:

[tex]n^{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

Side note: The m value can be greater than n and or less than n, but if it is equal the m and n values cancel out.

Have a nice day!

Y=2x^2 - 2x - 5

Answers

Answer:

y = 2(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² - [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² - 2x - 5 ← factor out 2 from the first 2 terms

 = 2(x² - x) - 5

Using the method of completing the square

add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - x

y = 2(x² + 2(- [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ) x + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ) - 5

  = 2(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² + 2(- [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ) - 5

  = 2(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] - 5

  = 2(x - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] )² - [tex]\frac{11}{2}[/tex] ← in vertex form

if 5/6 of the 30 motorcycles were new, how many motorcycles were used​

Answers

Answer:

5 Motorcycles are used

30÷6= 5

5×5= 25

30-24=5

so the answer is 5

Answer:

5 out of the 30 motorcycles are used

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we should look at what we know. We know that there are 30 motorcycles in total. As a fraction, that'd be 30/30. We also know that of that 30, the equivalent of 5/6 are brand new.

Our next step is to figure out how much 5/6 is out of 30. Since we know that in total there 30/30 motorcycles, we need to convert 5/6 to have a denominator of 30. So what times 6 equals 30.

30 ÷ 6 = ?    opposite of 6 x ? = 30

5                   divide

So now we now that 6 times 5 equals 30. What we do to the denominator we must do to the numerator.

[tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{5}{5}[/tex]    

[tex]\frac{25}{30}[/tex]

Now we know that 25 of the 30 motorcycles are new and all we need to do is subtract that 25 from the total 30 to get 5. This tells us that 5 of the total motorcycles are used.

I hope this helped :)

Answer:

-47

Step-by-step explanation:

First term in the sequence is given as 30. The common difference (difference between first term and next term) is -7. Since we are looking for the 12th term we can do 30 - (11 * -7) = -47. It's 11 * -7 because we already are given one term in the problem statement.

Your above-ground pool has sprung a leak, and you do not have a way to fix it. At 12 noon, the water in the pool is 5 feet deep (in other words, the water level is 5 feet above the ground). You are not sure how quickly the pool level is falling, so you check again after 40 minutes and see that the height of the water level is now feet. You notice that there is a relationship between the time that has passed to the height of the water level in the pool.

Class 10R sat a test.
The mean mark for the class was 70%.

There are 30 students in class 10R, 20 of whom are boys.
The mean mark for the boys in the test was 62%.

Work out the mean mark for the girls.

Answers

Answer:

86%

Step-by-step explanation:

30 students in the class with a mean average of 70% can be expressed as:

total class percent / 30 = 70%

Rearranged, this gives that the class achieved a total of 30x70 or 2100%.

20 boys in the class with a mean average of 62% can be expressed as:

total boys percent / 20 = 62%

Rearranged, this gives that the boys achieved a total of 20x62 or 1240%.

This means that the girls achieved 2100 - 1240 so 860%.

Because there are 30 students and 20 boys, there are 10 girls.

Then work out the mean with a total of 860% and 10 girls.

860/10 = 86%.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

It is given that Mary has 2 1/5 hours before she needs to meet her friend. She needs to take care of 7 chores before then.

Hence, we get

2 and 1/5 hours = 132 minutes (120 + 12)

thus, Mary will have 132/7 = 18.85714285714286 minutes for each chore.

Or around 18.85 minutes for each chore

Therefore, she can allocate to each chore around 18.85 minutes.

Find the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle where the perpendicular sides are 3 in. And 4in. In length

Answers

Answer:

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the hypotenuse or any side of a right triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem. This is [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex] where a and b are the perpendicular sides and c is the hypotenuse. So, plugin  3 and 4 for a and b. This gives 9+16=c^2, which is equal to 25=c^2. Then, take the square of both sides to get c=5.

Another way to solve this is to know the triples. Triples are right triangles that have integers for all of their sides. The triple 3,4,5 is the smallest and most common triple.

a. f(x) = x² - 4
