Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 3)^1/2 = 5

⇔

√(x + 3) = 5

⇔

(x + 3) = 5²

⇔

x + 3 = 25

⇔

x = 25 - 3

⇔

x = 22

Answer: x = 22

Step-by-step explanation: If you raise each side of the equation to the power of 2, you get (5)^2 = ((x + 3)^1/2)^2

Then the 1/2 and the 2 cancel out and you are left with 25 = x + 3

subtract 3 from both sides. 25 - 3 = x + 3 - 3

Simplify 22 = x

HDTV screens usually have a width-to-heigh ratio of 16:9. Which screen dimensions are in the same proportion?

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

4: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we have that there is a relationship between width and height, which is 16: 9, which means that any screen that has the same ratio would be an identical screen.

How would we do this? it must either be raised to a power or rationalized on both sides of the ratio.

If we raise to a power, it would give very large dimensions for an HDTV, therefore, it is best to remove the square root on both sides, since it has more common values for a TV.

$\sqrt{16} :\sqrt{9}$
