Answer:

<span>=3<span>√6</span>−3<span>√5</span></span>

Explanation:

<span>3<span><span>√5</span>+<span>√6</span></span></span>

We rationalise the denominator by multiplying the expression by the conjugate of the denominator. <span><span>√5</span>−<span>√6</span></span>

<span><span>3⋅<span>(<span>√5</span>−<span>√6</span>)</span></span><span><span>(<span>√5</span>+<span>√6</span>)</span>⋅<span>(<span>√5</span>−<span>√6</span>)</span></span></span>

<span>=<span><span>3⋅<span>(<span>√5</span>)</span>+3⋅<span>(−<span>√6</span>)</span></span><span><span>(<span>√5</span>+<span>√6</span>)</span>⋅<span>(<span>√5</span>−<span>√6</span>)</span></span></span></span>

<span>=<span><span>3<span>√5</span>−3<span>√6</span></span><span><span>(<span>√5</span>+<span>√6</span>)</span>⋅<span>(<span>√5</span>−<span>√6</span>)</span></span></span></span>

<span>Applying identity
<span><span>(a+b)</span><span>(a−b)</span>=<span>a2</span>−<span>b2</span></span> to the denominator.</span>

<span>=<span><span>3<span>√5</span>−3<span>√6</span></span><span><span><span>(<span>√5</span>)</span>2</span>−<span><span>(<span>√6</span>)</span>2</span></span></span></span>

<span>=<span><span>3<span>√5</span>−3<span>√6</span></span><span>5−6</span></span></span>

<span>=<span><span>3<span>√5</span>−3<span>√6</span></span><span>−1</span></span></span>

<span>=−3<span>√5</span>+3<span>√6</span></span>

A population of 1,500 insects grows exponentially by a factor of 3 every week. Select all equations that represent or approximat
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

FV(p)= PV*(1 + g)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of insects (PV)= 1,500

Increase rate= 3 weekly

<u>First, we need to calculate the daily growth rate:</u>

Daily rate (g)= [3^(1/7)] - 1

Daily rate (g)= 0.16993

<u>Now, by using the following formula, we can determine the population p in any given day t:</u>

FV(p)= PV*(1 + g)^t

<u>For, example after 7 days:</u>

FV(p)= 1,500*(1.16993^7)

FV(p)= 4,500

<u>For example, after 10 days:</u>

FV(p)= 1,500*(1.16993^10)

FV(p)= 7,206

The distance around a circle is 37.7 meters long. what is the diameter of the circle?
aksik [14]
Ok so we know that the distance around the circle (or circumference) is equal to the diameter times pi.
This means that
37.7 = \pi \times d
d being the diameter,

This means that:
d =  \frac{37.7}{\pi}
= 12.00028271
= 12 m

So the diameter of the circle is 12 metres.

Hope this helped

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measures 42°. A base angle in the triangle has a measure given by (2x + 3)°. What is t
Vsevolod [243]

<u>Part a) </u>

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two base angles that are congruent

The sum of two base angles plus the vertex angle is equal to 180 degrees

so

In this problem

vertex\ angle=42\°

base\ angle=(2x+3)\°

42\°+2*(2x+3)\°=180\°

Solve for x

42+4x+6=180

4x=180-48

x=132/4

x=33\°

therefore

<u>the answer part a) is</u>

the value of x is 33\°

<u>Part b)</u> What is the measure of each base angle?

we know that

base\ angle=(2x+3)\°

we have that

x=33\°

substitute the value of x in the equation

base\ angle=(2*33+3)\°

base\ angle=69\°

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is </u>

the measure of each base angle is 69\°
