Answer:

The square root of five is 2.2360679775...

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of five is irrational because it never ends (example: 3.1415... )

Answer:  1. This irrationality proof for the square root of 5 uses Fermat's method of infinite descent: Suppose that √5 is rational, and express it in lowest possible terms (i.e., as a fully reduced fraction) as mn for natural numbers m and n. Then √5 can be expressed in lower terms as 5n − 2mm − 2n, which is a contradiction.

What is the value of s?
Luba_88 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°.

=> s° + (s/7 + 3)° + (s/7 - 3)° = 180°

=> 9/7 * s° = 180°

=> s° = 180° * (7/9) = 140°

Hence the value of s is 140.

Evelyn is making a candy that contains 25% dark chocolate and the rest milk chocolate. The candy has 3 pounds of milk chocolate.
Vitek1552 [10]

<em>Part A: </em>

Let c represent the total amount of chocolate there is in lbs.

c = 0.25c + 0.75c

<em>Part B: </em>

0.75c represents milk chocolate, and we know that there are 3 lbs of milk chocolate, so you can replace the 0.75c with 3 (representing 3 lbs):

c = 0.25c + 3

Divide all the terms by c:

1 = 0.25 + 3/c

Subtract 0.25 from both sides to combine the like terms:

0.75 = 3/c

Multiply all the terms by c to make the equation easier to work with:

0.75c = 3

Divide both sides by 0.75 to isolate the c and find the total amount of chocolate in pounds.

c = 4

Substitute c for 4 in the term that defines dark chocolate (which was 0.25c)

0.25(4) = 1 pound

Therefore, there was exactly 1 pound of dark chocolate present in the chocolate.

This makes sense, as 1 pound of dark chocolate + 3 pounds of milk chocolate = 4 pounds of chocolate in total, and 1 is 25% of 4 and 3 is 75% of 4.
