ANEK [815]3 years ago

Answer:

718

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be done this way:

4% of 50.0 is 2.0

4% of 900 is 36

4% of 7000 is 280

4% of 10,000 is 400

add them all up and we have:

400 + 280 + 36 + 2 = 600 + 110 + 8 = 718

If x = (√2 + 1)^-1/3 then the value of x^3 + 1/x^3 is​
Shtirlitz [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u><u>:</u> x = {√(2) + 1}^(-1/3)

<u>Asked</u><u>:</u> x³+(1/x³) = ?

<u>Solution</u><u>:</u>

We have, x = {√(2) + 1}^(-1/3)

⇛x = [1/{√(2) + 1}^(1/3)]

[since, (a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ)]

Cubing on both sides, then

⇛(x)³ = [1{/√(2) + 1}^(1/3)]³

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(1/3 *3)]

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(1*3/3)]

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(3/3)]

⇛(x * x * x) = [(1*1*1)/{√(2) + 1)^1]

⇛x³ = [1/{√(2) + 1}]

Here, we see that on RHS, the denominator is √(2)+1. We know that the rationalising factor of √(a)+b = √(a)-b. Therefore, the rationalising factor of √(2)+1 = √(2) - 1. On rationalising the denominator them

⇛x³ = [1/{√(2) + 1}] * [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2) - 1}]

⇛x³ = [1{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}{√(2) - 1}]

Multiply the numerator with number outside of the bracket with numbers on the bracket.

⇛x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}{√(2) - 1}]

Now, Comparing the denominator on RHS with (a+b)(a-b), we get

  • a = √2
  • b = 1

Using identity (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b², we get

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2)² - (1)²}]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2*2) - (1*1)}]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/(2-1)]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/1]

Therefore, x³ = √(2) - 1 → → →Eqn(1)

Now, 1/x³ = [1/{√(2) - 1]

⇛1/x³ = [1/{√(2) - 1] * [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = [1{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) - 1}{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = {√(2) + 1}/[{√(2) - 1}{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2)² - (1)²}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2*2) - (1*1)}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/(2-1)]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/1]

Therefore, 1/x³ = √(2) + 1 → → →Eqn(2)

On adding equation (1) and equation (2), we get

x³ + (1/x³) = √(2) -1 + √(2) + 1

Cancel out -1 and 1 on RHS.

⇛x³ + (1/x³) = √(2) + √(2)

⇛x³ + (1/x³) = 2

Therefore, x³ + (1/x³) = 2

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u> Hence, the required value of x³ + (1/x³) is 2.

write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-1,1) and (7,-5)
gladu [14]
Find midpoint of segment.
(-1,1), (7,-5)
x= \frac{-1+7}{2}=3,y= \frac{1+(-5)}{2}=-2

Find slope of line which passes through (-1,1) and (7,-5).
m= \frac{-5-1}{7-(-1)}= \frac{-6}{8}=- \frac{3}{4}

The slope of perpendicular line is negative reciprocal value of m.
m_{\perp}=- \frac{1}{m} =- \frac{1}{- \frac{3}{4} } = \frac{4}{3}

Write quation of line which slope is \frac{4}{3} and passes throug the point (3,-2).
m=\frac{4}{3},x_1=3,y_1=-2&#10;\\y-y_1=m(x-x_1)&#10;\\&#10;\\y-(-2)=\frac{4}{3}(x-3)&#10;\\&#10;\\y+2=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{8}{3}&#10;\\&#10;\\3y+6=4x-8&#10;\\4x-3y-14=0

a merchant buys a telivision for $125 and sells it for the reatail price of $200. what is the markup.
NISA [10]
Before going to the answer, let's first understand what a mark up is. The mark up is the amount that the seller will add to the purchase cost to the retail cost so that he can earn a profit. So the purchase cost of the television is 125 dollars, and the selling cost or retail cost of the television is 200 dollars. So what is the markup. Simply minus 125 dollars from 200 dollars and you will get the amount added to the purchase cost or simply the mark up. So 200 dollars - 125 dollars is 75 dollars. So 75 dollars is the markup that the merchant put on the television

investments historically have doubled every 9 years. If you start will a $2,000 investment, how much money would you have after
azamat

Answer:

$64,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Friday, 45 / 9 = 5

So the investment will double 5 times

First time

2,000 (starting investment) × 2 = 4000

Second time

4000 × 2 = 8000

Third time

8000 × 2 = 16000

Fourth time

16000 × 2 = 32000

Fifth and final time

32000 × 2 = 64000

$64,000
