What does a 3 in front of a square root mean?

2 answers:

6 0

3 in this case would be your "index of the root;" please do not use the term "square root" in this case.

Note: 2^3 = 8 is a perfect cube.

Radical operator with index 3 of 8 would thus result in the cube root, 2.

∛8 = 2,

∛64 = 4,
and so on.

∛x is called "the cube root of x."

The 3 goes with the square root you don’t need to multiply or anything like that. If you need to simply for example 3 square root of 20 which is when 3 is outside the square root sign. The 20 will be separated with 4*5 in the square root and then you will square root the 4 leaving the 5 in and bringing 2 out. Now you can’t just bring it out and forget about the 3 outside you need to multiply that 2 and 3 and you get 6! So you final answer is 6 square root 5. Hope this helps reply if you have a question!

BC = 6, EF = 12 Based on the given information, choose the similarity statement that you would use to say ABC~DEF. If you could

vovangra [49]

Answer:

The answer is "NOT"

Step-by-step explanation:

To demonstrate a similar statement we want to have yet another side or some other angle, however, the third section is not proportional.
Its sides were equivalent in proportions (yeah sure they are) + corner by the by is not given.
There is no triangle angle provided so, that we can not enforce the SAS argument.
It is not evidence of similarity between ABC ≈DEF.

In October 2012, Apple introduced a much smaller variant of the Apple iPad, known as the iPad Mini. Weighing less than 11 ounces

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a) 0.4286 = 42.86% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less

b) 0.2857 = 28.57% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours

c) 0.5714 = 57.14% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours

d) 86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X lower than x is given by the following formula.

$P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}$

The probability of being higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b-a}$

The probability of being between c and d is:

$P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d-c}{b-a}$

Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours.

This means that $a = 8.5, b = 12$

a. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less (to 4 decimals)?

$P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}$

$P(X \leq 10) = \frac{10 - 8.5}{12 - 8.5} = 0.4286$

0.4286 = 42.86% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less.

b. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours (to 4 decimals)?

$P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b-a}$

$P(X > 11) = \frac{12 - 11}{12 - 8.5} = 0.2857$

0.2857 = 28.57% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours

c. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours (to 4 decimals)?

$P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d-c}{b-a}$

$P(9.5 \leq X \leq 11.5) = \frac{11.5 - 9.5}{12 - 8.5} = 0.5714$

0.5714 = 57.14% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours.

d. In a shipment of 100 iPad Minis, how many should have a battery life of at least 9 hours (to nearest whole value)?

Proportion of iPad Minis with a battery life of at least 9 hours.

$P(X > 11) = \frac{12 - 9}{12 - 8.5} = 0.8571$

Out of 100:

0.8571*100 = 85.71

To the nearest whole number

86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours.

Use your knowledge of similar triangles to explain why the construction in the image divides the line segment into equal parts.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

This image show how to divide a given line segment into a number of equal parts by using a compass and ruler. First, draw the line AB. Secondly, draw a line above and divide into 5 equal distances to make a line AC. Third, using a compass by getting the distance of point C and B to be equal in the distance of point A and D, also getting the distance of point C to A to be equal to point B and D, then to make the Line DB. Finally divide into 5 equal parts by compass.
