Is is square root of 1.6875 a rational number

mamaluj [8]

Question:

Is square root of 1.6875 a rational number ?

Answer:

Square root of 1.6875 a rational number is not a rational number

Solution:

Given that we have to find square root of 1.6875 and determine if it is rational number or not

Let us first find square root of 1.6875

$\sqrt{1.6875} = 1.29903810568$

Let us understand about rational number

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction (ratio) in the form $\frac{p}{q}$ where p and q are integers and q is not zero.

When a rational number fraction is divided to form a decimal value, it becomes a terminating or repeating decimal.

So the number 1.29903810568 is not a rational number

In other words we can say,

Only the square roots of square numbers are rational. Here 1.6875 is not a perfect square. So it is not rational number

Food and clothing are shipped to victims of a natural disaster. Each carton of food will feed 13 people, while each carton of c

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

233 cartons of food; 467 cartons of clothing

Step-by-step explanation:

This linear programming problem can be formulated as two inequalities (in addition to the usual constraints that the variables be non-negative). One of these expresses the constraint on weight. Let f and c represent numbers of food and clothing containers, respectively.

40f +25c ≤ 21000

The other expresses the limit on volume.

20f + 5c ≤ 7000

_____

Feasible Region vertex

We can subtract the boundary line equation of the first inequality from that of 5 times the second to find f:

5(20f +5c) -(40f +25c) = 5(7000) -21000

60f = 14000

f = 233 1/3

The second boundary line equation can be rearranged to find c:

c = 1400 -4f = 466 2/3

The nearest integer numbers to these values are ...

(f, c) = (233, 467)

The other vertices of the feasible region are associated with one or the other variable being zero: (f, c) = (0, 840) or (350, 0).

Check of Integer Solution

Trying these in the constraint inequalities gives ...

40·233 +25·467 = 20,995 < 21000
20·233 +5·467 = 6995 < 7000

Selection of the Answer

The answer to the question will be the feasible region vertex that maximizes the number of people helped. That is, we want to maximize ...

p = 13f + 6c

The values of p at the vertices are ...

p = 13·233 + 6·467 = 5831

p = 13·0 + 6·840 = 5040

p = 13·350 + 6·0 = 2100

The most people are helped when the plane is filled with 233 food cartons and 467 clothing cartons.
