Which number sentence is true?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexxx [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because A is incorrect because the -8.9 is in absolute value which mean it will be an 8.9 which is greater than 5.6

C is Incorrect because - 5.6 is not greater than the absolute value of -8.9 which is 8.9, as you can see is greater than -5.6

D is incorrect because the absolute value of 5.6 is still 5.6 and the absolute value of - 8.9 is 8.9 which is greater that 5.6

Rewrite x2 − 6x + 7 = 0 in the form (x − a)2 = b, where a and b are integers, to determine the a and b values.
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Therefore values of a and b are

a=3\ and\ b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite x^{2}-6x+7=0 in the form

(x-a)^{2}=b

where a and b are integers,

To Find:

a = ?

b = ?

Solution:

x^{2}-6x+7=0 ..............Given

Which can be written as

x^{2}-6x=-7

(\frac{1}{2} coefficient\ of\ x)^{2}=(\frac{1}{2}\times -6)^{2}=9

Adding half coefficient of X square on both the side we get

x^{2}-6x+9=-7+9=2 ...................( 1 )

By identity we have (A - B)² =A² - 2AB + B²

Therefore,

x^{2}-6x+9=x^{2}-2\times 3\times x+3^{2}=(x-3)^{2}

Substituting in equation 1 we get

(x-3)^{2}=2

Which is in the form of

(x-a)^{2}=b

On comparing we get

a = 3 and b = 2

Therefore values of a and b are

a=3\ and\ b = 2

A piece of string is 144 inches long. Isabel wants to cut it into 2 pieces so that one piece is five times as long as the other.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

  • 24 inches
  • 120 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths can be found by considering their ratio:

  short : long = 1 : 5

The sum of the ratio units is 1+5 = 6, and the sum of the lengths is 144 inches. That means each "ratio unit" stands for (144 in)/6 = 24 inches of length.

The lengths are ...

  1 : 5 = 24 in : 120 in

The pieces are 24 inches and 120 inches in length.

__

Equivalently, you can let s represent the shorter length. Then 5s is the longer one, and their total is ...

  s +5s = 144

  s = 144/6 = 24

  5s = 5(24) = 120

The lengths are 24 inches and 120 inches.
