The answer is 10.

the part furthest to the left always represents the least number.

5. You are making your Halloween costume this year. You have 6 yards of fabric and the pattern says that you need to cut it in t

REY [17]

Answer:

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Total yards of fabrics = 6 yards

you need to cut it in two pieces where one is two feet longer than the other.

First piece= x feet

Second piece= x+2 feet

Convert 6 yards to feet

6 yards = 18 feet

First piece + second piece = total piece of fabrics

x + (x+2) = 18

x + x + 2 = 18

2x + 2 = 18

2x = 18 - 2

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

x = 8 feet

8 feet = 2.66667 yards

x + 2

= 8 + 2

= 10 feet

10 feet = 3.33333 yards

The shorter side piece of fabric = x = 8 feet

The longer side piece of fabrics = (x + 2) = 10 feet

What will be the value of

madreJ [45]

The expression as given doesn't make much sense. I think you're trying to describe an infinitely nested radical. We can express this recursively by

$\begin{cases}a_1=\sqrt{42}\\a_n=\sqrt{42+a_{n-1}}\end{cases}$

Then you want to know the value of

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}a_n$

if it exists.

To show the limit exists and that $a_n$ converges to some limit, we can try showing that the sequence is bounded and monotonic.

Boundedness: It's true that $a_1=\sqrt{42}\le\sqrt{49}=7$ . Suppose $a_k\le 7$ . Then $a_{k+1}=\sqrt{42+a_k}\le\sqrt{42+7}=7$ . So by induction, $a_n$ is bounded above by 7 for all $n$ .

Monontonicity: We have $a_1=\sqrt{42}$ and $a_2=\sqrt{42+\sqrt{42}}$ . It should be quite clear that $a_2>a_1$ . Suppose $a_k>a_{k-1}$ . Then $a_{k+1}=\sqrt{42+a_k}>\sqrt{42+a_{k-1}}=a_k$ . So by induction, $a_n$ is monotonically increasing.

Then because $a_n$ is bounded above and strictly increasing, the limit exists. Call it $L$ . Now,

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}a_n=\lim_{n\to\infty}a_{n-1}=L$

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}a_n=\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt{42+a_{n-1}}=\sqrt{42+\lim_{n\to\infty}a_{n-1}}$

$\implies L=\sqrt{42+L}$

Solve for $L$ :

$L^2=42+L\implies L^2-L-42=(L-7)(L+6)=0\implies L=7$

We omit $L=-6$ because our analysis above showed that $L$ must be positive.

So the value of the infinitely nested radical is 7.

How to find the lengths of the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle, when given the base length?

lianna [129]

A triangle equals 180 so do the base divided by 180 and then the number you get you would split that number in half and then it should be the same number for both sides
