What does the number line represent?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The number line represent

a < b     ..........TRUE.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number Line:

Number line  represent the positions of numbers.

With reference to the number zero

That is number to the right-hand side of zero are all  positive numbers in increasing order.

And the number to the left hand side of zero are all negative numbers in decreasing order.

Overall if we go right hand side of number line the number will increase and if we will go to the left hand side of the number line the number will goes on decreasing.

∴  a < b     ..........TRUE.

a to the Left hand side and b to the Right hand side.

i.e a is the negative number (small number)

    b is the negative number (big number)

a is the negative number  less than b negative number

if a = -3  and b = -2

∴ -3 < -2 i.e TRUE

Whereas,

|a| < |b| ........False

modulus make negative number positive

if a = -3  and b = -2

so condition will be False i.e 3 < 2

|a| < |b| but actual representation on number line will become False

Similarly,

For |a| < b ....False

if a = -3  and b = -2

So  |a| < b i,.e 3 < -2 which is again False

The correct answer is:  [C]:  " x² = √32 " .
_________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________
Note:  Working backward,   "(± 4√2)" , squared, equals what value(s)?
_________________________________________________
Note:  We are actually given 2 (TWO) solutions:

  " +4√2" and "–4√2" ; 
_______________________________________
√32 = √8 √4 = √4 √2 √4 = 4√2 ;

- √32 = -1 * √32  =   - 4√2
_______________________________
or:  

√32 = √16 √2  = 4√2 ; 

-1 * √32  =   - 4√2
______________________________________________________
However, BOTH these values, when "squared" (i.e. raised to the exponential power of "two"; will result in the same value— which is:  "32" ; 
_______________________________________________________

 is equal to:  "(4√2)²  = (4)² *(√2)²  =  (4*4) (√2*√2) = 16*2 = " 32 " .

______________________________________________________
√32 = √8 √4 = √4 √2 √4 = 4√2 ;

- √32 = -1 * √32  =   - 4√2
_______________________________
or:  

√32 = √16 √2  = 4√2 ; 

-1 * √32  =   - 4√2
_________________________________________________
          " (4√2)²  =  (4)²  * (√2)²  =  (4 * 4) (√2*√2)  =  16 * 2 = " 32 " .  

         " (-4√2)²  = (-4)²  * (√2)²  = (-4 *-4) (2) = 16 * 2 = " 32 " .
_________________________________________________
The correct answer is:  " 32 <span>" ; which is:  Answer choice:  [D]:  " x</span>² = 32 " .<span>

We know that the answer is: " </span>" {" <span>± 8 "}; since we are dealing with equations that contain "x SQUARED"; that is, " x</span>²"; and when we solve for the 'square root of all values of a [variable raised to an even positive integer] ;

we take the "plus or minus" square root values ;  since the value, "x" could be plus or minus;  since a "negative value" multiplied by a "negative value" is a "positive value" ; 
______________________________________________
So, the correct answer is:  Answer choice:  [B]:  " x² = <span>± 8 " .
______________________________________________
Let us check our answer:  

</span>√32 = √16*√2 = 4√2 ;

– √32  =  – 4√2 ;
________________________________________________
Also, note:
________________________________________________

   
x²  =  32 ;  Solve for "x" ; 

→ Take the square root of "each side" of the equation ; 
     to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;

→  √(x²)  =  √32 ; 

→  | x |   = √32 ;

→  x = ±   √32 . Yes!

The area of a rectangle is 20 cm². The height is 4 cm longer than thrice the width.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

width = 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

are of rectangle is equal to length times width

x is the width, then length is 3x + 4

so x(3x + 4) = 20

3x^2 + 4x = 20

3x^2 + 4x - 20 = 0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a

so a = 3

    b = 4

    c = -20

substitute in the formula

x = [-4 +/-√(4^2 - 4(3)(-20))]/2(3)

x = [-4 +/- √(16 + 240)]/6

x = [-4 +/- 16]/6

x1 = (-4 + 16)/6 = 2

x2 = (-4 - 16)/6 = -20/6

since the width can't be a negative number, x2 is not the right answer

so x = 2
