Find the square root of 8-2√5​

Answer:

The square root of 8 - 2√5 is

\sqrt{4 +  \sqrt{11} }    \:  -  \sqrt{4  -   \sqrt{11} }

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the square root

8-2√5 must be in the form √a - √b where a > b

√ 8 - 2√5 = √a - √b

Square both sides

8 - 2√5 = (√a - √b)²

That's

8 - 2√5 = (a + b) - 2√ab

Since the two surd expressions are equal we can equate them

That's

8 = a + b ........ 1

a = 8 - b ........ 2

2√5 = 2√ab

Simplify

Divide both sides by 2

√5 = √ab

square both sides

We have

5 = ab ....... 3

Substitute a = 8 - b into equation 3

5 = ( 8 - b)b

5 = 8b - b²

b² - 8b + 5 = 0

After solving

b = 4 + √ 11 or 4 - √ 1

Since b is less than a

b = 4 - √11

a = 4 + √11

So the square root of 8 - 2√5 is

\sqrt{4 +  \sqrt{11} }    \:  -  \sqrt{4  -   \sqrt{11} }

Hope this helps you.

Answer:

1.88

Step-by-step explanation:

8-2√5=3.527864045

square root of 3.527864045=1.87826090972

the question will probably want it to 2d.p (decimal places) which means the answer would be 1.88

Find the mode of 7 , 3 , 2 , 5 , 0. Single choice.<br><br><br>2<br><br>0<br><br>No mode​
frez [133]

Answer:

No mode​

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the statistical method in which the most repetitive number should be considered

Like if we take an example

1,1, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4,4,4

So here the mode is 4 as 4 is repeated 4 times

But in the given situation there is no mode as every number is written single time

james attached a diagonal brace across a rectangular frame that measures 6ft by 8ft what is the length of the diagonal brace
Bogdan [553]
To solve this you would use the pythagorean theorem since the brace is making the frame look like two right triangles. The theorem states that for a triangle with a right angle, A^2+B^2=C^2. A and B are the sides of the frame and C is the brace which is like the hypotenuse of the triangle. It doesn't matter which side is A or B so you can put 6 or 8 in place of either in the equation. 6^2+8^2=C^2. If you simplify this it equals 36+64=C^2, which then simplifies to 100=C^2. Then you take the square root of both sides (what number multiplied by itself = the number you are trying to get, in this case, 100). So then you get C=10 because 10x10=100. So the length of the diagonal brace is 10ft.

Water is being drained at a constant rate from a tank.
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 gallons - 940 = 60 then divide by the time which gets us 60/10=6

Now we can use this answer to help find out the amount remaining in the tank.

5 minutes = 5x6=30; 1000-30= 970 gallons

20 minutes= 20x6=120; 1000-120= 880 gallons

30 minutes=30x6=180; 1000-180= 820 gallons

27 minutes=27x6=162; 1000-162= 838 gallons

X minutes = 1000-6x

Rate of flow is 6 gallons per minute.

Hope this helps!
