How do you simplify the square root of 48

1 answer:

4 0

When you simplify the square root of a number, you are looking for factors of the number that are perfect squares that you can remove from under the radical. For example sq root of 8... it's not a perfect square but factors of 8 include 2 x 4... 4 is a perfect square so we can take it out of the radical by taking it's square root. Now you are left with 2* sq root of 2.

For sq root of 48

48 = 12 x 4

12 = 3x4 so we can say 48 = 3x4x4

so... sq root 48 = sq root 3x4x4

we have two 4's under the radical. Sq root x^2 = x so sq root 4^2 is 4

Pull it out from the radical and we are left with 4 * sq root 3

The coffee Lily likes is composed of 97.3% water and 2.7% cocoa. The coffee John likes is composed of 96% water and 4% cocoa. Ho

mestny [16]

30 ounces of the coffee John likes consists of

$0.96\cdot30=28.8$ ounces of water
$0.04\cdot30=1.2$ ounces of cocoa

To this mixture we're adding $x$ ounces of water, so that the new mix has a total volume of $30+x$ ounces and matches the composition of the coffee Lily likes. This means it would consist of

$0.973\cdot(30+x)=28.8+x$ ounces of water
$0.027\cdot(30+x)=1.2$ ounces of cocoa (same amount of cocoa as before because pure water is being added)

Solve for $x$ :

$0.973(30+x)=28.8+x\implies29.12+0.973x=28.8+x$

$\implies0.39=0.027x$

$\implies x\approx14.4$

###

Just to confirm: the new mixture consists of

$28.8+14.4=43.2$ ounces of water
$1.2+0=1.2$ ounces of cocoa

giving a total volume of $43.2+1.2=44.4$ ounces of coffee, and $\dfrac{43.2}{44.4}\approx0.973$ , as required.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Alberta's total overtime pay of the week was $ 145.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Alberta worked 6 hours at time-and-a-half pay, and 3 hours at double-time pay, and that the value of her regular work hour is $ 9.72, to determine the value of the pay of his overtime, the following equation must be performed:

6x1.5x9.72 + 3x2x9.72 = X

9x9.72 + 6x9.72 = X

87.48 + 58.32 = X

145.8 = X

Therefore, Alberta's total overtime pay of the week was $ 145.80.

First one because when you subtract 7 u keep the var. x alone and isolate it.
