Consider the given number is $\sqrt{30}$ in question as well as in options.

Given:

$\sqrt{30}$ is considered as an irrational number.

To find:

The reason for given statement.

Solution:

We have,

$\sqrt{30}=5.47722557505...$

When evaluated, $\sqrt{30}$ results in a nonterminating (infinite digits after decimal) and nonrepeating decimal, which is considered an irrational number.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Which set of ordered pairs has point symmetry with respect to the origin (0, 0)?

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

(-8, 3), (8, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point symmetry about origin means reflection of the given point about the origin.

The reflection of a point about the origin will cause the 'x' and 'y' value of the point to change its sign.

Therefore, the coordinate rule for point symmetry about the origin is given as:

$(x,y)\to (-x,-y)$

Now, let us check each of the given options.

Option 1:

(-8, 3), (8, -3)

Now, if (x, y) = (-8, 3), then its point symmetry is given as (-(-8), -3) = (8, -3)

So, option 1 is correct.

Option 2:

(-8, 3), (-3, 8)

Now, if (x, y) = (-8, 3), then its point symmetry is given as (-(-8), -3) = (8, -3) ≠ (-3, 8)

So, option 2 is not correct.

Option 3:

(-8, 3), (-8, -3)

Now, if (x, y) = (-8, 3), then its point symmetry is given as (-(-8), -3) = (8, -3) ≠ (-8, -3)

So, option 3 is not correct.

Option 4:

(-8, 3), (8, 3)

Now, if (x, y) = (-8, 3), then its point symmetry is given as (-(-8), -3) = (8, -3) ≠ (8, 3)

So, option 4 is not correct.

Hence, only option 1 is correct.

What’s the slope of the line that passes through 5,10 and 7,12

Marrrta [24]

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The two points are (5,10) and (7,12).

To find the slope passing through the given points.

Formula

The slope of the line passing through ( $x_{1} ,y_{1}$ ) and ( $x_{2} ,y_{2}$ ) is $\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

Now, putting $x_{1} =5,y_{1}=10, x_{2}=7, y_{2} =12$ we get,

Slope = $\frac{12-10}{7-5}$ = $\frac{2}{2}$ = 1

Hence,

Slope of the line passes through (5,10) and (7,12) is 1.

2x + 19 and x + 23 are alternate exterior angles. What is the value of x? *

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+19=x+23

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

2x+19=x+23

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+2x-1x=+23-19

We simplify the left and right sides of the equation.

+1x=+4

We divide both sides of the equation by 1 to get x.

x=4
