Answer:

A. 7 centimetres and 25 centimetres

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if the lengths make a triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem. Insert the biggest value as c (the hypotenuse, which is always the longest side in a right triangle). If both sides equal each other, it is a right triangle:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

A.

$24^2+7^2=25^2\\\\576+49=625\\\\625=625$

This is a right triangle.

B.

$23^2+8^2=24^2\\\\529+64=576\\\\593\neq 576$

Not a right triangle.

C.

$9^2+22^2=24^2\\\\81+484=576\\\\565\neq 576$

Not a right triangle.

D.

$24^2+10^2=27^2\\\\576+100=729\\\\676\neq 729$

Not a right triangle.

Done :D

What is the following quotient?

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

A. $2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-\sqrt[3]{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$\frac{6-3(\sqrt[3]{6}}{\sqrt[3]{9}})$

We have to find the quotient.

$\frac{6}{\sqrt[3]{9}}-3(\frac{\sqrt[3]{6}}{\sqrt[3]{9}})$

$\frac{2\times 3}{\sqrt[3]{3^2}}-3(\frac{\sqrt[3]{3\times 2}}{\sqrt[3]{3^2}})$

$2\times\frac{3}{3^{\frac{2}{3}}}-3(\frac{2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times 3^{\frac{1}{3}}}{3^{\frac{2}{3}}})$

Using the property

$(ab)^n=a^n\cdot b^n$

$2\times 3^{1-\frac{2}{3}}-3(2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times 3^{\frac{1}{3}-\frac{2}{3}})$

Using the property

$\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-3(2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times 3^{-\frac{1}{3}})$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times 3^{1-\frac{1}{3}}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times 3^{\frac{2}{3}}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times \sqrt[3]{3^2}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-2^{\frac{1}{3}}\times \sqrt[3]{9}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-\sqrt[3]{2\times 9}$

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-\sqrt[3]{18}$

Hence, the quotient of $\frac{6-3(\sqrt[3]{6}}{\sqrt[3]{9}})$ is given by

$2(3^{\frac{1}{3}})-\sqrt[3]{18}$

Option A is correct.

If x^3 + 1/x^3 = 110 then find x + 1/x

Svetlanka [38]

$Use:(a+b)^3=a^3+3a^2b+3ab^2+b^3\ (*)\\\\x^3+\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3\\=\underbrace{x^3+3\cdot x^2\cdot\dfrac{1}{x}+3\cdot x\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3}_{(*)}-3\cdot x^2\cdot\dfrac{1}{x}-3\cdot x\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^2\\\\=\left(x+\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3-3x-3\cdot\dfrac{1}{x}=\left(x+\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3-3\left(x+\dfrac{1}{x}\right)$

therefore

$x^3+\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3=110\iff \left(x+\dfrac{1}{x}\right)^3-3\left(x+\dfrac{1}{x}\right)=110\\\\subtitute\ t=x+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\t^3-3t=110\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 110\ from\ both\ sides\\\\t^3-3t-110=0\\\\t^3-25t+22t-110=0\\\\t(t^2-25)+22(t-5)=0\ \ \ |use\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\t(t-5)(t+5)+22(t-5)=0\\\\(t-5)[t(t+5)+22]=0\iff t-5=0\ or\ \underbrace{t^2+5t+22=0}_{no\ solution}\\\\t=5\iff x+\dfrac{1}{x}=5\\\\Answer:\boxed{x+\dfrac{1}{x}=5}$
