Hello there.

<span>There were 196 students that participated in a clean-up event at a nearby lake. this is one fourth of the entire student population. write and solve an equation to find the number of students at this school.

Answer: x is the number of students in the school.
</span> $\frac{x}{4}$ = 196.
<span>196 x 4 = 784.
Therefore the number of students in this school is 784.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^</span>

Which postulate can be used to prove that the triangles are congruent?

vovikov84 [41]

You have two angles congruent, plus a side that's NOT between them.
I guess you'd call that situation " AAS " for "angle-angle-side".
That's what you have, and it's NOT enough to prove the triangles
congruent. There can be many many different pairs of triangles
that have AAS = AAS.

So there's no congruence postulate to cover this case, because they're
not necessarily.

Solve for x in the equation 2x^2+3x-7=x^2+5x+39

Shalnov [3]

Hey there, hope I can help!

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}x^2+5x+39\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$
$2x^2+3x-7-\left(x^2+5x+39\right)=x^2+5x+39-\left(x^2+5x+39\right)$

Assuming you know how to simplify this, I will not show the steps but can add them later on upon request
$x^2-2x-46=0$

Lets use the quadratic formula now
$\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}$
$x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:} a=1,\:b=-2,\:c=-46: x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-2\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-46\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}$

$\frac{-\left(-2\right)+\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)}}{2\cdot \:1} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:-\left(-a\right)=a \ \textgreater \ \frac{2+\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}$

Multiply the numbers 2 * 1 = 2
$\frac{2+\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-\left(-46\right)\cdot \:1\cdot \:4}}{2}$

$2+\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)} \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:-\left(-a\right)=a \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2+1\cdot \:4\cdot \:46} \ \textgreater \ \left(-2\right)^2=2^2, 2^2 = 4$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:4\cdot \:1\cdot \:46=184 \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{4+184} \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{188} \ \textgreater \ 2 + \sqrt{188}$
$\frac{2+\sqrt{188}}{2} \ \textgreater \ Prime\;factorize\;188 \ \textgreater \ 2^2\cdot \:47 \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{2^2\cdot \:47}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}: \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b} \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{47}\sqrt{2^2}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}: \sqrt[n]{a^n}=a \ \textgreater \ \sqrt{2^2}=2 \ \textgreater \ 2\sqrt{47} \ \textgreater \ \frac{2+2\sqrt{47}}{2}$

$Factor\;2+2\sqrt{47} \ \textgreater \ Rewrite\;as\;1\cdot \:2+2\sqrt{47}$
$\mathrm{Factor\:out\:common\:term\:}2 \ \textgreater \ 2\left(1+\sqrt{47}\right) \ \textgreater \ \frac{2\left(1+\sqrt{47}\right)}{2}$

$\mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{2}{2}=1 \ \textgreater \ 1+\sqrt{47}$

Moving on, I will do the second part excluding the extra details that I had shown previously as from the first portion of the quadratic you can easily see what to do for the second part.

$\frac{-\left(-2\right)-\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)}}{2\cdot \:1} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:-\left(-a\right)=a \ \textgreater \ \frac{2-\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}$

$\frac{2-\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-\left(-46\right)\cdot \:1\cdot \:4}}{2}$

$2-\sqrt{\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \left(-46\right)} \ \textgreater \ 2-\sqrt{188} \ \textgreater \ \frac{2-\sqrt{188}}{2}$

$\sqrt{188} = 2\sqrt{47} \ \textgreater \ \frac{2-2\sqrt{47}}{2}$

$2-2\sqrt{47} \ \textgreater \ 2\left(1-\sqrt{47}\right) \ \textgreater \ \frac{2\left(1-\sqrt{47}\right)}{2} \ \textgreater \ 1-\sqrt{47}$

Therefore our final solutions are
$x=1+\sqrt{47},\:x=1-\sqrt{47}$

Hope this helps!

Represent the set of numbers as decimals on the number line {5 3/10, 5 1/10, 5 and if you answer more than needed thank you

Alina [70]

Answer:

(0.53 > 0.51) both less than 1 while 5 is greater than both

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{53}{10} = .53, \frac{51}{10} = .51.$ and 5

the number line has two sides, with the left side for negative numbers while the right side is for positive numbers.

<u> </u>

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 -.53 -.51 0 .51 .53 1 2 3 4 5

By studying the number line above all decimal numbers greater than 0 but less than 1 are from 0, .1, .2,.........,.98, .99, 1.00 which is also the same as 1 because all numbers greater than 1 has an invisible point at its right side like 2., 3. which also means 2, 3 while negative number are all less than 0
