(1+x^2)^8
=(1+8x^2+8*7/(1*2)x^4+8*7*6/(1*2*3)x^6+8*7*6*5/(1*2*3*4)x^8+....)
=1+8x^2+28x^4+56x^6+70x^8+....)
For x<1, higher power terms diminish in value, hence we can approximate powers of numbers.
1.01=(1+0.1^2) => x=0.1 in the above expansion
(1.01)^8
=1+8(0.1^2)+28(0.1^4)+56(0.1^6) [ limited to four terms, as requested]
=1+0.08+0.0028+0.000056 (+0.00000070)
=1.082856 (approximately)
When the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular, the area of that quadrilateral is half the product of their lengths.
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
Substituting the given information, this becomes
.. 58 in² = (1/2)*(14.5 in)*d₂
.. 2*58/14.5 in = d₂ = 8 in
The length of diagonal BD is 8 in.
1.solve for y
2x+4y=12
<u> </u><span><u> -2x -2x</u>
</span><u>4y</u>=<u>12-2x</u>
<u>4 4</u>
y=3-1/2x
step2 plug in y and solve for x
2x+8y=24
2x+8(3-1/2x)= 24
2x+24-4x=24
<u>-2x</u>=<u>0
</u><u>-2 -2</u>
x=0
last step plug in x and solve for y
y=3-1/2x(0)
y=3
Answer:
√5 is irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is one that can be written exactly as an integer or ratio of integers. Written as a decimal number, it will have a finite number of digits, or a repeating decimal fraction.
<h3>Application</h3>
Usually, a number that can <em>only</em> be expressed <em>exactly</em> using a <em>symbol</em> will be irrational. For square roots, any root of an integer other than a perfect square will be irrational.
The integer 5 is not a perfect square. It is between the squares 2²=4 and 3²=9. The square root of 5 is irrational.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
A reduced fraction whose denominator has factors other than 2 or 5 will translate to a repeating decimal. The number of repeating digits may be as many as 1 less than the denominator. For example, 1/19 has an 18-digit repeating decimal equivalent.
