Answer:
By adding 1 to the quotient.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Harbormaster needs to arrange tripe for 37 cars
in one go ferry can carry a maximum of 8 cars
trips = 37/8 = 4.625 trips
Since the ferry can't go in decimals so we need one more trip to carry all the cars. Hence the best way to interpret the remainder of 37/8 is by adding 1 to the quotient which will make 5 trips.
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3(x - 3) = 3x , that is
3x - 9 = 3x ( add 9 to both sides )
3x = 3x + 9 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
0 = 9 ← not possible
This indicates the equation has no solution
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is 
Factor denominators then solve by making denominators equal
take squar root of both sides
Hence final answer is .
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x - 1
y = x - 8 ------ (i)
substitute y = 2x - 1 in equation (i)
2x - 1 = x - 8
2x = x - 8 + 1
2x = x - 7
2x - x = -7
x = -7
Substitute x value in equation (i)
y = -7 - 8
y = -15
it just so happen that √2 is an irrational number, so any product with it as a factor, will yield an irrational number as well.
factoid: Ancient Greeks were scared of irrational numbers, and they steered clear from √2.
