899/7.....if u plug this into a calculator u will get 128.(and a bunch of decimal numbers).....but u have the whole number 128....so 128 x 7 = 896 + 3 = 899
so the answer to this problem is basically : 899/7 = 128 remainder 3
I hope this helped you tell me if you need help understanding
The answer is 3 because if you were to round 2.9 the next whole up from that is 3
OK so basically when converting 2 meters per second to kilometers per hour you will get 7.2 kilometers per hour. OK so times that by 4 and you will get 28.8 kilometers in 4 hours.
Let the number be n.
Then:
n^2 + (1/n)^2 = 82/9; find n. Find the LCD; it is 9n^2.
Mult all 3 terms by 9n^2:
82*9n^2
9n^4 + 9 = (82/9)(9n^2) => 9n^4 + 9 = ------------
9
Then 9n^4 - 82n^2 + 9 = 0
I used my graphing calculator to find that n = 3.
Let's check: is 3^2 + (1/3)^2 = 82/9?
Is 9 + 1/9 = 82/9?
Is 81 + 1 = 82? YES. So, n=3 is a solution.
