Answer:

=3√6−3√5

Explanation:

3√5+√6

We rationalise the denominator by multiplying the expression by the conjugate of the denominator. √5−√6

3⋅(√5−√6)(√5+√6)⋅(√5−√6)

=3⋅(√5)+3⋅(−√6)(√5+√6)⋅(√5−√6)

=3√5−3√6(√5+√6)⋅(√5−√6)

Applying identity
(a+b)(a−b)=a2−b2 to the denominator.

=3√5−3√6(√5)2−(√6)2

=3√5−3√65−6

=3√5−3√6−1

=−3√5+3√6

=3√6−3√5

Identify the vertex of the function h(x) = −2x2 + 10x + 1.

Morgarella [4.7K]

The answer is vertex is (5/2, 27/2).

Find x= -b/2a where a=-2, b=10 then plug x value back into function to solve for y value of vertex (x,y).

Practice D. Factor each trinomial.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

So 1) x²-2x-8

=  x(x-2-8/x)

2) y²-13y+42

 = y(y-13+42/y)

3) m²-6m-7

 = m(m-6-7/m)

Major league baseball salaries averaged $1.5 million with a standard deviation of $0.8 million in 1994. suppose a sample of 100

seropon [69]

Answer: The probability that the avg. salary of the 100 players exceeded $1 million is approximately 1.

Explanation:

Step 1: Estimate the standard error. Standard error can be calcualted by dividing the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size:

$SE=\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{100}}=\frac{0.8}{10} = 0.08$

So, Standard Error is 0.08 million or $80,000.

Step 2: Next, estimate the mean is how many standard errors below the population mean $1 million.

$\frac{1 - 1.5}{0.08}$

$=-6.250$

-6.250 means that $1 million is siz standard errors away from the mean. Since, the value is too far from the bell-shaped normal distribution curve that nearly 100% of the values are greater than it.

Therefore, we can say that because 100% values are greater than it, probability that the avg. salary of the 100 players exceeded $1 million is approximately 1.

A triangular pyramid has a surface area of 174 square feet. It is made up of equilateral triangles with side lengths of 10 feet.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Slant height = 7.07 ft to nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slant height = height of one of the triangular sides

Using Pythagoras:

S^2 = 1/2 * 10^2 + 10^2 = 50 ft.

S = √50 = 7.071
