How do you solve a radical equation? What are the steps in doing so?

Mathematics

solniwko [45]3 years ago

Radical Equation:

1. Isolate the radical expression.

2. Square both sides of the equation: If x = y then x2 = y2.

3. Once the radical is removed, solve for the unknown.

4. Check all answers.

Another way of saying it:

1. Isolate the radical expression involving the variable. ...

2. Raise both sides of the equation to the index of the radical.

3. If there is still a radical equation, repeat steps 1 and 2; otherwise, solve the resulting equation and check the answer in the original equation.

Factor the gcf out of the polynomial 9x^6+6x^4+15x^3
san4es73 [151]

Answer:3x^3(3x^3+2x+5)


Step-by-step explanation:by looking at the polynomial, you can see that all three shares the variable x. Since 9,6, and 25 all share the GCF of 3, you can factor it out. Since the smallest x value of the polynomial is x^3, that is the x value you want to factor out. Since if you factor out x^3 then 15x^3 would not have a variable anymore.

Solve the system of equations and choose the correct ordered pair.
KiRa [710]
<span>4x + 3y = 16
7x + 6y = 31

Note what happens if we mult. the first eqn. by -2:  

-8x - 6y = -32

Combining this with the 2nd equation eliminates the variable y:

</span>-8x - 6y = -32<span>
7x + 6y = 31
--------------------
-x          = -1, or x = 1.  Sub 1 for x in either of the 2 given eqns to find y:

For example:  4(1) + 3y = 16, so 36 = 12, and y = 3.  Sol'n is (1,3).</span>

How do you know if a square root of something is rational or irrational? like i know it can be represented by a fraction or a ra
ra1l [238]
The square root of a whole number will be rational if the whole number is a perfect square (i.e 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144 etc) and irrational otherwise.

Rational number is a number that can be described as m/n 

so a fraction can be a rational number, 0.8=4/5 
Irrational numbers can't be written as a fraction 

The part about the number having to be a perfect square is still correct, if it's not a prefect square than it will just keep going(a decimal that never ends) 

for example the square root of 0.64 is 0.8 
and the square root of 10 is 3.162277... 
as you can see the 0.64 one ends and is rational, whereas the 10 one just keeps going and is irrational.
