What is the square root of four

Mathematics
1 answer:
xz_007 [3.2K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It is +2 or since (+2)*(+2 ) gives. If you think that it would be (-2) also then you are wrong because root of a positive rational number is always positive number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the square root of four be ‘k’.

Then we have

(4)^1/2=k

(Squaring both sides)

4=(k)^2

=>(k)^2–4=0

=>(k)^2-(2)^2=0

=>[k+2][k-2]=0 {since (a)^2-(b)^2=(a+b)(a-b)}

if product of two numbers is 0 then either of one must be zero.

If k+2=0 then k=-2

If k-2=0 then k=2

From here we got two answers but -2 should be omitted because when we square an equation we add “root extra”which means that when we square an equation one root is added.

Why is it important to calculate the distance between two points on a cartesian coordinate plane?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Derived from the Pythagorean Theorem, the distance formula is used to find the distance between two points in the plane. The Pythagorean Theorem,

a

2

+

b

2

=

c

2

, is based on a right triangle where a and b are the lengths of the legs adjacent to the right angle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. The relationship of sides

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

to side d is the same as that of sides a and b to side c. We use the absolute value symbol to indicate that the length is a positive number because the absolute value of any number is positive. (For example,

|

−

3

|

=

3

. ) The symbols

|

x

2

−

x

1

|

and

|

y

2

−

y

1

|

indicate that the lengths of the sides of the triangle are positive. To find the length c, take the square root of both sides of the Pythagorean Theorem.

c

=

a

b

→

c

√

a

b

It follows that the distance formula is given as

d

=

(

x

)

(

=

√

(

x

−

x

)

2

+

(

y

−

y

)

2

We do not have to use the absolute value symbols in this definition because any number squared is positive.

A GENERAL NOTE: THE DISTANCE FORMULA

Given endpoints

(

,

y

and

(

, the distance between two points is given by

A car traveled 330 miles during a 5½ hour period. If the speed at which the car traveled can be represented in the equation d=rt
Alina [70]

Answer:

The car was travelling at a speed of 60 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance traveled = 330 miles

Time Period = 5 \frac12\ hr

we need to find the speed of the car .

Solution:

Time Period = 5 \frac12\ hr

Now we can say that;

\frac12\ hr =0.5\ hr

So Time period = 5+0.5 =5.5\ hr

Now we know that;

Distance traveled (d) is equal to Speed (r) multiplied by Time Period (t).

framing in equation form we get;

d=rt\\\\330 =r\times 5.5

Dividing both side by 5.5 we get;

\frac{330}{5.5}=\frac{5.5r}{5.5}\\\\r = 60\ mi/hr

Hence The car was travelling at a speed of 60 miles per hour.
