Which number produces an irrational number when multiplied by 1/3
MArishka [77]

We can simply observe that.

  1. 0.777... is rational, because it is a number with infinite but repeating decimal part.
  2. 1/3 is rational, because it's the division between two integers
  3. -\sqrt{16}=-4, so this is rational as well.

Since the product of two rational numbers is always rational, we have that

0.\bar{7}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3},\quad \dfrac{1}{3}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3},\quad -4\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}

are all rationals, since they are the product of two rationals.

On the other hand, we have

\sqrt{27}=\sqrt{9\cdot 3}=3\sqrt{3}

and thus

3\sqrt{3}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3}=\sqrt{3}

which is irrational.

GEOMETRY! PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK. (updated picture)
Orlov [11]

Given:

The base of the given triangle has two part:

Left( left side of the hypotenuse) = 25

Right ( right side of the hypotenuse) = x

The altitude (h) = 60

To find the value of x.

Formula:

By Altitude rule we know that, the altitude of a triangle is mean proportional between the right and left part of the hypotenuse,

\frac{left}{altitude} =\frac{altitude}{right}

Now,

Putting,

left = 25, altitude = 60 and right = x we get,

\frac{25}{60} =\frac{60}{x}

or, (25)(x )=(60)(60) [ by cross multiplication]

or, x = \frac{3600}{25}

or, x = 144

Hence,

The value of x is 144.

Solve 5n + 6 = -3n - 10
Verizon [17]

Hi there! :)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{n = -2}

5n + 6 = -3n - 10

Solve for n:

Add 3n to both sides:

5n + 3n + 6 = -3n + 3n - 10

8n + 6 = -10

Subtract 6 from both sides:

8n + 6 - 6 = -10 - 6

8n = -16

Divide both sides by 8:

8n/8 = -16/8

n = -2.
