A number is squared. The result is squared, then that result is squared. The final number is 6561. What was the original number?

What were the next 2 numbers? Wich of these numbers are perfect squares?

The original number is 3.

I actually began with the guess-and-check method, but seeing as that won't always work, let's go over the formal way. To get the original number, you first need to determine how many times the number was squared.

To make it simple, let's use x to focus on the exponents. The number was squared 3 times, so x^2, x^2, x^2. Basically, you need to multiply. 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. So, now find the 8th root of 6561 (depending on the calculator, you can just input it). You should come up with 3. Let me know if this part confuses you.

To find the next 2 numbers, you just need to continue the pattern.

6561^2 = 43,046,721

43,046,721^2 = 1,853,020,188,851,841

To my knowledge, which means this could be wrong, they're both perfect squares. Since the number to get them both were whole numbers, they should both have a square root that equals a whole number.

Please solve this i really need the help <br> Y-2 = ½(X-3)
Katarina [22]

Answer:

(If solving for x) X = 2y-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Y-2 = 1/2(x-3)

Distributive property

Y-2 = 1/2x - 1.5

Addition property of equality

Y-0.5=1/2x

Multiplication property

2Y-1=X

Symmetric property

X = 2y-1

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 7cm shorter than the longer leg. The hypotenuse is 7cm longer then the linger leg. What i
Gelneren [198K]

The shorter leg is 21cm, longer leg is 28 cm and hypotenuse is 35cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The longer leg = x

The shorter leg = x-7

Hypotenuse = x+7

Using Pythagoras theorem;

a^2+b^2=c^2\\(x-7)^2+(x)^2=(x+7)^2\\x^2-14x+49+x^2=x^2+14x+49\\2x^2-14x+49-x^2-14x-49=0\\x^2-28x=0\\x(x-28)=0\\

Either,

x= 0

Or,

x-28=0      =>x=28

As length cannot be zero, therefore,

Longer side = 28cm

Shorter side = x-7 = 28-7 = 21cm

Hypotenuse = x+7 = 28+7 = 35cm

The shorter leg is 21cm, longer leg is 28 cm and hypotenuse is 35cm.
