Answer:

a) √2

b) √(5a)

c) √3

d) -√2

e) -√(3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem set makes use of the relation ...

... a√b = √(a²b)

a) (1/3)√18 = √(18·(1/3)²) = √(18/9) = √2

b) 5√(a/5) = √(25a/5) = √(5a)

c) 2√(3/4) = √(4·3/4) = √3

d) -10√0.02 = -√(100·0.02) = -√2

e) -(1/2)√(12x) = -√(12x/4) = -√(3x)

Javier and his friends go out to eat. The restaurant they chose automatically adds a 15% gratuity to their food bill since they

siniylev [52]

well, we know that 213.90 includes the 15% gratuity, so if the meal price was say "x", namely that is the 100%, and we add 15% to that, then 100% + 15% = 115%, so 213.90 is really the 115%.

now, if 213.90 is the 115.%, what is "x"? the 100%.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 213.90&115\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{213.9}{x}=\cfrac{115}{100}\implies 21390=115x \\\\\\ \cfrac{21390}{115}=x\implies 186=x$

so since we know the meal without the tip is 186 bucks, the tip was then 213.90 - 186 = 27.90.

but they got extra potato wedges with butter and the waitress was wearing her best hat, they added $20 more, so the tip ended up as 27.90 + 20 = 47.90.

now, if the cost of the meal was $186 and that is the 100%, what is 47.90 off of it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 186&100\\ 47.90&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{186}{47.90}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 186x=4790 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{4790}{186}\implies x\approx \stackrel{\%}{25.75}$

The city will place a low fence around the entire fish pond.To the nearest hundredth, how long will the fence be?

Tom [10]

You can't tell the dimensions from the area. There are an infinite number of correct answers. The length of the fence is 2 times (length of the pond + width) and the length and width can be anything, just as long as their product is 2956.5 .

Solve the quadratic equation below for the exact values of x:<br> 4x^2-5=75

grandymaker [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

$4 {x}^{2} - 5 = 75 \\ 4 {x}^{2} = 75 + 5 \\ 4 {x}^{2} = 80 \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{80}{4} \\ {x}^{2} = 20 \\ x = \pm \sqrt{20} \\ x = \pm 2 \sqrt{5}$

Classify the number by indicating into which set or sets it belongs -6

lys-0071 [83]

-6 belongs to a set of real numbers and also a set of rational numbers.

Real numbers are all integers: positive and negative whole numbers. So -6 is a real number.

Rational numbers are all numbers that can be expressed as a fraction i.e numerator/denominator form. So -6 = -6/1 which is a rational number.
