Answer:

\dfrac{5(3+\sqrt{5})\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}

\textsf{or}\quad \dfrac{5\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

\textsf{Given expression}:\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}

<u>Method 1</u>

\textsf{Multiply by the conjugate}\quad \dfrac{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}:

\implies \dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}=\dfrac{5\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})}

Simplify the denominator using the radical rule \sqrt{a} \sqrt{a} =a:

\implies (\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})=3-\sqrt{5}

Therefore:

\implies \dfrac{5\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})}= \dfrac{5\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{3-\sqrt{5}}

\textsf{Multiply by the conjugate}\quad \dfrac{3+\sqrt{5}}{3+\sqrt{5}}:

\implies \dfrac{5\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{3-\sqrt{5}} \times \dfrac{3+\sqrt{5}}{3+\sqrt{5}}=\dfrac{5\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}(3+\sqrt{5})}{(3-\sqrt{5})(3+\sqrt{5})}

Simplify the denominator:

\implies (3-\sqrt{5})(3+\sqrt{5})=9+3\sqrt{5}-3\sqrt{5}-5=4

Therefore:

\implies \dfrac{5(3+\sqrt{5})\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}

<u>Method 2</u>

\textsf{Multiply by the conjugate}\quad \dfrac{\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}{\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}:

\implies \dfrac{5}{\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}{\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}=\dfrac{5\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}{(\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})(\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}})}

Simplify the denominator using the radical rule \sqrt{a} \sqrt{b} =\sqrt{ab}:

\implies (\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}})(\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}})=\sqrt{(3-\sqrt{5})(3+\sqrt{5})

\implies\sqrt{(3-\sqrt{5})(3+\sqrt{5})}=\sqrt{9-5}=\sqrt{4}=2

Therefore:

\implies \dfrac{5\sqrt{3+\sqrt{5}}}{2}

<u>To</u><u> </u><u>rationalise</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

\frac{5}{ \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} } }

There is a formula in math if there is root in denominator

for example

\frac{1}{ \sqrt{a - b} }

we can say rationalize by multiplying √(a-b) in numerator and denominator both

\frac{1}{ \sqrt{a - b} }  \times  \frac{ \sqrt{a - b} }{ \sqrt{a - b} }  \\  \frac{ \sqrt{a - b} }{a - b}

In here

\frac{5}{ \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} } }  \times  \frac{ \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} } }{ \sqrt{3 - { \sqrt{5} } } }  \\ \frac{5( \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} }) }{3 -  \sqrt{5} }

but still here is root to remove this we have to multiply

3 + √5 in numerator and denominator.

\frac{5( \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} }) }{3 -  \sqrt{5} }  \times  \frac{3  +   \sqrt{5} }{3 +  \sqrt{5} }  \\ \frac{5( \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} })(3 +  \sqrt{5} ) }{ {3}^{2} -  { (\sqrt{5} )}^{2}  }  \\  \frac{5( \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} })(3 +  \sqrt{5})  }{9 - 5}  \\  \frac{5( \sqrt{3 -  \sqrt{5} } )(3 +  \sqrt{5}) }{4}

Researchers recorded that a certain bacteria population declined from 800,000 to 500,000 in 6 hours after the administration of
kupik [55]

Answer:

We can assume that the decline in the population is an exponential decay.

An exponential decay can be written as:

P(t) = A*b^t

Where A is the initial population, b is the base and t is the variable, in this case, number of hours.

We know that: A = 800,000.

P(t) = 800,000*b^t

And we know that after 6 hours, the popuation was 500,000:

p(6h) = 500,000 = 800,000*b^6

then we have that:

b^6 = 500,000/800,000 = 5/8

b = (5/8)^(1/6) = 0.925

Then our equation is:

P(t) = 800,000*0.925^t

Now, the population after 24 hours will be:

P(24) = 800,000*0.925^24 = 123,166

EASY QUESTION
Ostrovityanka [42]
The correct answer would be D, the median 86.5.

In this set of data most of the values are in the 80's or 90's. There is only 1 number that is outside of this range, that is the value 0. It is an outlier. 

When we have an outlier, the median generally gives us the better measure of central tendency.
