Choice D will create an irrational number when added. This is because a rational number plus a rational number will always be irrational (you can experiment this by trying to add rational numbers to pi). For example, 3 + pi = 6.1415926..... or $1+ \frac{2}{7} =1.285714...$ .

What is the length of BC in the right triangle below?

Verdich [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$hypotenuse^2=leg^2+leg^2$

We have

$leg=AC=36,\ leg=AB=15, hypotenuse=BC$

Substitute:

$BC^2=36^2+15^2\\\\BC^2=1296+225\\\\BC^2=1521\to BC=\sqrt{1521}\\\\BC=39$

On planet Zorg, a 30 kg barbell can be lifted by only exerting a force of 180N. What is the acceleration of gravity on Planet Zo

WITCHER [35]

To calculate g, we use the formula F= mg. F is given as 180N, and m is given as 30 kg, therefore:
180N = (30kg)(g)
g = 6 m.s-1.
The motion of this object would be decreased on Earth as more force would be required to lift it. If we assume g is 9.8 m.s-1 on Earth, we can calculate the force required.
F = mg
= (30kg)(9.8 m.s-1)
= 294 N

A jar contains nickels and dimes. There are 20 coins in the jar, and the total value of

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

n and d are the number of nickels and dimes, respectively.

"there are 20 coins"

n+d = 20

d = 20-n

"total value is $1.40"

0.05n + 0.10d = 1.40
