Find the smallest positive integer k such that 3240/k is a square number

Mathematics

sashaice [31]3 years ago

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, factorize the number 3,240:

3,240=2\cdot 1,620=2\cdot 2\cdot 810=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 405=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 5\cdot 81=2^3\cdot 5\cdot 9^2

So,

3,240=2^2 \cdot 2\cdot 5\cdot 9^2=18^2\cdot 10

Now consider the fraction

\dfrac{3,240}{k}=\dfrac{18^2\cdot 10}{k}

If k = 10, then

\dfrac{3,240}{k}=\dfrac{18^2\cdot 10}{10}=18^2

is a square number.

For all k < 10, the fraction tex]\dfrac{3,240}{k}[/tex] is not a square number (this follows from factorization).

Or you can simply check the values of the fraction for all k < 10:

  • k = 1, \dfrac{3,240}{1}=3,240 is not a square number;
  • k = 2, \dfrac{3,240}{2}=1,620 is not a square number;
  • k = 3, \dfrac{3,240}{3}=1,080 is not a square number;
  • k = 4, \dfrac{3,240}{4}=810 is not a square number;
  • k = 5, \dfrac{3,240}{5}=648 is not a square number;
  • k = 6, \dfrac{3,240}{6}=540 is not a square number;
  • k = 7, \dfrac{3,240}{7} is not a square number;
  • k = 8, \dfrac{3,240}{8}=405 is not a square number;
  • k = 9, \dfrac{3,240}{9}=360 is not a square number.

Find all solutions for a triangle with c=70 c=24 and a=25
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

see the attachments for the two solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

When the given angle is opposite the shorter of the given sides, there will generally be two solutions. The exception is the case where the triangle is a right triangle (the ratio of the given sides is equal to the sine of the given angle). If the given angle is opposite the longer of the given sides, there is only one solution.

When a side and its opposite angle are given, as here, the law of sines can be used to solve the triangle(s). When the given angle is included between two given sides, the law of cosines can be used to solve the (one) triangle.

___

Here, the law of sines can be used to solve the triangle:

A = arcsin(a/c·sin(C)) = arcsin(25/24·sin(70°)) = 78.19° or 101.81°

B = 180° -70° -A = 31.81° or 8.19°

b = 24·sin(B)/sin(70°) = 13.46 or 3.64

HELP!!! The graph is at the top! Will mark as brainliest answer!!
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The value of BEF = 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle AED = 90°

Angle BEF = 3x°

Angle CEF = 54°

Find;

The value of BEF

Computation:

We know that;

Angle AED = Angle BEC (Vertical opposite angle)

So,

Angle AED = Angle Angle BEF + Angle CEF

90 = 3x + 54

3x = 90 - 54

3x = 36

x = 36 / 3

x = 12

The value of BEF = 3x

The value of BEF = 3(12)

The value of BEF = 36°

suppose Richard walks one kilometer every 10 minutes how many meters are there can you walk in an hour at this new rate
Ipatiy [6.2K]
One kilometer is 1000 meters.  One hour is 60 minutes, or six segments of 10 minutes each.  If you can walk 1000 meters in 10 minutes, you can walk 6000 in an hour (that is REALLY fast, by the way)
