\bf \cfrac{4}{2(x-3)}=\cfrac{5}{3(14-x)}\implies \stackrel{\textit{distributing in the denominators}}{\cfrac{4}{2x-6}=\cfrac{5}{42-3x}} \\\\\\ 4(42-3x)=5(2x-6)\implies \stackrel{\textit{distributing again}}{168-12x=10x-30}\implies 198=22x \\\\\\ \cfrac{198}{22}=x\implies \boxed{9=x}

(HELP MEH) Why is √​5​​ irrational?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

  D.)  because it cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers

Step-by-step explanation:

The root of any integer that is not a perfect square is irrational. 5 is not a perfect square, so is irrational—it cannot be expressed as the ratio of integers.

__

<em>Proof</em>

Suppose √5 = p/q, where p and q are mutually prime. Then p² = 5q².

If p is even, then q² must be even. We know that √2 is irrational, so the only way for q² to be even is for q to be even—contradicting our requirement on p and q.

If p is odd, then both p² and q² will be odd. We can say p = 2n+1, and q = 2m+1, so we have ...

  p² = 5q²

  (2n+1)² = 5(2m+1)²

  4n² +4n +1 = 20m² +20m +5

  4n² +4n = 4(4m² +4m +1)

  n(n+1) = (2m+1)²

The expression on the left will be even for any integer n; the expression on the right will be odd for any integer m. This equation cannot be satisfied for any integers m and n, so contradicting our assumption √5 = p/q.

We have shown using "proof by contradiction" that √5 cannot be the ratio of integers.

Given sets X, Y, Z, and U, find the set Xn(X - Y) using the listing method.
Aliun [14]

Answer:

{f, a}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sets:

X = {d, c, f, a}

Y = {d, e, c}

Z ={e, c, b, f, g}

U = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g}

To obtain the set X n (X - Y)

We first obtain :

(X - Y) :

The elements in X that are not in Y

(X - Y) = {f, a}

X n (X - Y) :

X = {d, c, f, a} intersection

(X - Y) = {f, a}

X n (X - Y) = elements in X and (X - Y)

X n (X - Y) = {f, a}

the area of a rectangle garden is 60ft^2. the length is an irrational number. explain why or why not the width must be a fractio
Sindrei [870]
Area of a rectangle is given by the formula length x width

length x width = 60ft^2

if the length is an irrational number then most likely the width can be one too
for example
length = 60^1/2
then width must be 60^1/2
since 60^1/2 * 60^1/2 = 60ft^2
