What types of numbers are undefined when they are under a radical sign? If you were dealing with the number √-1, would it be def

ined if you multiplied it by 2? Would it be defined if you subtracted some real number from it? Would it be defined if you squared it? Would it be defined if you cubed it?

The square root of a a negative integer is imaginary.
It would still be a negative under a square root if you multiplied it by 2, therefor it will still be imaginary, or I’m assuming as your book calls it, undefined.
2•(sqrt-1) = 2sqrt-1

If you add a number to -1 itself, specifically 1 or greater it will become a positive number or 0 assuming you just add 1. In that case it would be defined.
-1 + 1 = 0
-1 + 2 = 1

If you add a number to the entire thing “sqrt-1” it will not be defined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1+ (sqrt-1)

If you subtract a number it will still have a negative under a square root, meaning it would be undefined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1 + (sqrt-1)

however if you subtract a negative number from -1 itself, you end up getting a positive number or zero. (Subtracting a negative number is adding because the negative signs cancel out).
-1 - -1 = 0
-1 - -2 = 1

If you squared it you would get -1, which is defined
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1

and if you cubed it, you would get a negative under a square root again, therefor it would be undefined.
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1 • sqrt-1 = -1(sqrt-1)

Sorry if this answer is confusing, I don’t have a scientific keyboard, I’ll get one soon.

10. When you add the same number to both sides of an inequality, is the inequality still true? Explain how you know your stateme
avanturin [10]

The inequality is still true! If you add a number, say 5 to both sides of the following inequality, does anything change?

3 < 6

3 + 5 < 6 + 5

8 < 11

The inequality is still true. We know the statement holds for subtracting the same number because, in a way, addition and subtraction are pretty much the same operation. If I subtract 5 from both sides, I can think of it like "I add negative 5 to both sides" or something along those lines. It's kind of backwards thinking.

A cuboid has side lengths 3cm, 4cm and 7cm. A cylinder with a height double that of the longest side of the cuboid has the same
mart [117]

Step-by-step explanation:

Longest side of cuboid: 7cm

Height of cylinder:

2 × 7 = 14 cm

Volume of cuboid:

7x3x4=84cm^3

Volume of cylinder:

84=14\pi r^2 \\r=\sqrt{\frac{6}{\pi} }  \ \ \  cm\\r=1.38 \ cm\\

Surface area of the cylinder:

\pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h

6+2\pi (\sqrt{\frac{6}{\pi} } ) (14)

=128 cm^2

The yearly cost in dollars, y, at a video game arcade based on total game tokens purchased, x, is y = x + 60 for a member and y
morpeh [17]
<span>We have the yearly cost in dollars y at a video game arcade based on total game tokens purchased x. So we know that:

</span>y=x+60:\ equation \ for \ a \ member<span>

</span>y=x:\ equation \ for \ a \ nonmember<span>
</span><span>
Then we can study this problem by using the graph in the figure below. We know that if there's no any purchase, the yearly cost for a member will be $60 and for a nonmember there will not be any cost. From this, we can affirm that the cost of membership is equal to $60.

On the other hand, both members and nonmembers will pay the same price on the total game tokens purchased, this is true because of the same slope that members and nonmembers have in the equations.</span>
