You have such entry data: 
1\ \textless \ a\ \textless \ 10 \\ 1\ \textless \ b\ \textless \ 36

Consider expression \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} }. If this expression becomes an integer, then b=4,9,16,25, because then \sqrt{b} = 2,3,4,5, respectively. In other cases \sqrt{b} is not integer and thus the expression \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} } also is not integer.

1. b=4, then \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} }=\sqrt{a+2}. Here a=2,7 (in other cases \sqrt{a+2} is not integer). When a=2, \sqrt{a+2}=\sqrt{2+2}=2 and when a=7, \sqrt{a+2}=\sqrt{7+2}=3.

2. b=9, then a=6 and \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} }= \sqrt{a+3}=\sqrt{6+3}=3.

3. b=16, then a=5 and \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} }= \sqrt{a+4}=\sqrt{5+4}=3.

4. b=25, then a=4 and \sqrt{a+ \sqrt{b} }=\sqrt{a+5}=\sqrt{4+5}=3.

Answer: (2,4), (7,4), (6,9), (5,16), (4,25).

How do I solve this? 408=1/2(b)(17)
seropon [69]

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 408 = \frac{1}{2} \times (b) \times (17)

Now, solving it.

We first open parenthesis which is (b)\times(17) = 17b

Next Multiply both side by 2

⇒ 816 = 17b

Now, we will divide both side by 17

∴ b= 48
