1. What is an extraneous solution of an equation?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vadim26 [7]3 years ago
6 0
“Extraneous solutions are not solutions at all. They arise from outside the problem, from the method of solution. They are extraneous because they are not solutions of the original problem. ... To tell if a "solution" is extraneous you need to go back to the original problem and check to see if it is actually a solution.”

Basically, they are an answer you get when you solve a problem, but they don’t actually make the equation true so you disregard it.

A home-made baseball diamond is in the shape of a square. The distance from base to base is 80 feet because of space constraints
Lelu [443]
Call x the distance from home plate to second base.

There is a right triangle formed by homeplate, first base and second base. The sides of this triangle are 80 feet and 80 feet. The hypothenuse meets Pythagoras theorem:

x^2 = 80^2 + 80^2 = 2(80)^2
x = 80√2

Then the answer is the option D.

Hey guys I need help in these. Thanks in advance^^
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Read explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The two operations that you will get the same answer for no matter what order you do it is addition and multiplication.

Bonus: Technically, if you had something like 1-2-3 you could rewrite it as 1 + (-2) + (-3) and now it won't matter the order and for something like 1/2/3 you could rewrite as 1 * (1/2) * (1/3) and not it wont matter the order too!

This propetie is called the associative property of addition and multiplication.

In the second question since its addition the order you do it in does not matter.

Why: If you think of it logically adding in a diffrent order than the question does not matter since in the end your still adding the same ammount.

Remember: You can only swap the orders if everything is addition or multiplication and remember your order of operations when using this propety in the years to come.

Hoped this helped, Eddie K.W.
