No. √48 = √16√3 = 4√3. √3 is not a rational number, so neither is √48

If they ask if a rounded answer it would be 107. You just divide 2560 by 24 because you know 24 balls is 3 pounds.

What the answer to this equation be?

scoray [572]

If you expand the square, you have

$\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-3x=7x+8-10x$

Simplify the right hand side:

$\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-3x=-3x+8$

Cancel the -3x appearing on both sides:

$\dfrac{1}{4}x^2=8$

Multiply both sides by 4:

$x^2=32$

Consider the square root of both terms (using the doubles sign):

$x=\pm\sqrt{32}=\pm4\sqrt{2}$

zysi [14]

First divide 3.5 by 2 which equals 1.75. Then do 1.75*3 which equals 5.25. So he drinks 5.25 liters in one hour.

This is my last question by the way

Leni [432]

Part A:

There are 25 blocks for the length, and the length of each is 5.5 inches. 5.5x25=137.5

There are 9 blocks for the height, and each is 2.75 inches. 2.75x9=24.75

Since we're trying to find how much longer the length is to the width, we find the difference. 137.5-24.75=112.75

So part A answer is 112.75 (or 112¾)

Part B:

We know the length is 137.5 and the height is 24.75. To find how many times longer the length is, we need to divide to see how many 24.75 can go into 137.5.

137.5÷24.75=5.55

So the answer to part B is 5.55. Given the context, the answer would probably be 5, because that's how many entire height can fit.

Sorry if it's wrong lol
