Answer:

√4 rational

√9 rational

√12 irrational

√17 irrational

√20 irrational

√25 rational

Step-by-step explanation:

2² = 4

3²=9

√12 = 2√3 ⇒ p²/q² = 3

p and q are prims (irreducible fraction), therefore has maximum common divisor 1, and belong to the Integers.

p>q

p²=3q² ⇒ p is multiple of 3

If p² is divisible for 3 and the MDC (p and q) is 1, p²=3 and q=1. But it is absurd, because 3 is not a perfect square.

the rest is tasted the same way, but it will take too long so I won't put ...

The surface area would be 150cm and the volume would be 125cm. To get volume you do 5 cubed to get the answer 125. To get surface area you would do 5 multiplied by 5 multiplied by the cubes 6 sides to get 150.

The top of a picnic table has a width represented by 2x in inches. It has an area represented by the expression 6x2 – 14x in squ

baherus [9]

Answer:

So length of top of table is 3x-7 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that the top of the table has a width that is given by 2x inches.

The area of the top is given by:

$Area=6x^{2}-14x$

Now the top of the table is of the shape of rectangle and area of rectangle is given by:

$A=l*w$

where l is length of the table and w is width of the table.

Plugging the values of A and w in the formula we have:

$6x^{2}-14x=l*2x$

Dividing by 2x,

l=3x-7 inches

So length of top of table is 3x-7 inches.

Solve for x.

Afina-wow [57]

X = 18

Steps:

Remove the parenthesis...

4x-6+x = 12+4x

Then cancel out 4x...

-6+x = 12

Then regroup the terms...

x - 6 = 12

Add 6 to both sides...

x = 12 + 6

Then you get...

x = 18

Hope this helped!
