Answer:

  • Rational: 5.39
  • Irrational: √29 ≈ 5.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Any number you can write completely that has a value between the given numbers will be a suitable rational number.

There are many ways to find irrational numbers in the given range. You can make one up, such as ...

... 5.3102003000400005000006...

a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal. (This one has a pattern that makes it easy to extend, but that doesn't make it rational.)

Or, you can use roots, logs, trig functions, exponential functions, or any of the other functions we study that have irrational values. You can add, subtract, or combine them in other ways. (tan(70°)+∛20, for example) For this, I chose √29, because that square root is between the given numbers and 29 is not a perfect square.

The table represents the start of the division of 8x^4+2x^3-7x^2+3x-2 by the indicated divisor. Find the quotient.
zloy xaker [14]
Answer: <span><span>2x² + x - 2</span> (the first option)

Explanation:

1) Question: divide 8x⁴+2x³-7x²+3x-2 by 4x² - x + 1

2) First term of the quotient

</span><span>  8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2     | 4x² - x + 1
                                           ---------------------
 -8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x²                   2x²
----------------------------------
           4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2

3) Second term of the quotient:
</span>
<span>  8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2     | 4x² - x + 1
                                           ---------------------
 -8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x²                   2x² + x
----------------------------------
           4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2
          -4x³ +  x² -   x
        ----------------------------
                  - 8x² + 2x - 2

4) third term of the quotient:
</span>
<span>  8x⁴ + 2x³ - 7x² + 3x - 2     | 4x² - x + 1
                                           ---------------------
 -8x⁴ + 2x³ - 2x²                   2x² + x - 2
----------------------------------
           4x³ - 9x² + 3x - 2
          -4x³ +  x² -   x
        ----------------------------
                  - 8x² + 2x - 2
                    8x²  - 2x + 2
                 -------------------------
                             0

5) Conclusion: since the remainder is 0, the division is exact and the quotient is </span>2x² + x - 2

You can verify the answer by multiplying the quotient obtained by the divisor. The result has to be the dividend.

If f(x) equals x/2+8 what is f(x) when x=10
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want to find f(x) when x equals 10, we can substitute 10 in for x

f(x)=x/2 +8

f(10)=10/2+8

Divide 10 by 2

f(10)=5+8

Add 5 and 8

f(10)=13

So, f(x) when x=10 is 13
