I would change the 1 2/5 miles to a whole fraction which would be 7/5 miles then invert the 5/8 th to 8/5 then multiply the fractions. I.E. 7/5 x 8/5 which will give 56/25. Divide 25 into 56 and you get 2 6/25 miles or convert to a decimal and would be 2.24 miles.

Use the intermediate value theorem to prove that there is a positive number c such that c2 = 2.
schepotkina [342]

So lets try to prove it,

So let's consider the function f(x) = x^2.

Since f(x) is a polynomial, then it is continuous on the interval (- infinity, + infinity).

Using the Intermediate Value Theorem,

it would be enough to show that at some point a f(x) is less than 2 and at some point b f(x) is greater than 2. For example, let a = 0 and b = 3.

Therefore, f(0) = 0, which is less than 2, and f(3) = 9, which is greater than 2. Applying IVT to f(x) = x^2 on the interval [0,3}.

A12.5 ft ladder is leaning against the side of a house. If the ladder is resting 12 feet off the ground, how far is the ladder f
Elanso [62]

Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculatdd by applyinthe g Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2= c^2

12^2 + x^2= 12.5^2

144+ x^2= 156.25

x^2= 156.25-144

x^2= 12.25

x= √12.25

x= 3.5

Hence the distance between the ladder and the house is 3.5 ft

Yuan has 5 quarts of broth. He uses 1/2 of the broth to make soup. Then, he uses 1/4 of the broth he has left to make gravy.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

  1 7/8 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount Yuan has left can be found by multiplying the original amount by the fraction he has left.

__

<h3>used</h3>

After using 1/2 of the broth for soup, the fraction remaining is ...

  1 -1/2 = 1/2

The amount Yuan used for gravy is 1/4 of this, or ...

  (1/4)(1/2) = 1/8 . . . of the original amount of broth

The total fraction Yuan used was ...

  fraction used = fraction for soup + fraction for broth = 1/2 +1/8 = 5/8

<h3>remaining</h3>

Then the fraction remaining is ...

  fraction remaining = 1 - fraction used = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8.

The amount remaining is this fraction of the original amount:

  (3/8)(5 quarts) = 15/8 quarts = 1 7/8 quarts . . . . remaining
