50 inches 4/5*x=40

x=40/(4/5)

x=40*5/4=200/4=50 x=50 inches

The value of 33+4⋅(52−42)

joja [24]

We will use order of operations (PEMDAS) to solve this.

1.) 33+4(52-42) This is our equation. So, first we are gonna subtract 42 from 52.

2.) 33+4(10) Now that we did that, we are gonna add 4 to 33.

3.) 37(10) Lastly we are gonna multiply 37 by 10.

The answer is gonna be 370. If this helped, maybe consider giving me brainliest :)

Prove that root 7 is irrational by the method of contradiction

Alchen [17]

Let assume that $\sqrt7$ is a rational number. Therefore it can be expressed as a fraction $\dfrac{a}{b}$ where $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $\text{gcd}(a,b)=1$ .

$\sqrt7=\dfrac{a}{b}\\\\7=\dfrac{a^2}{b^2}\\\\a^2=7b^2$

This means that $a^2$ is divisible by 7, and therefore also $a$ is divisible by 7.

So, $a=7k$ where $k\in\mathbb{Z}$

$(7k)^2=7b^2\\\\49k^2=7b^2\\\\7k^2=b^2$

Analogically to $a^2=7b^2$ ------- $b^2$ is divisible by 7 and therefore so is $b$ .

But if both numbers $a$ and $b$ are divisible by 7, then $\text{gcd}(a,b)=7$ which contradicts our earlier assumption that $\text{gcd}(a,b)=1$ .

Therefore $\sqrt7$ is an irrational number.
