Answer:

Irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

root of 5 = 2.23606797749978969640917366873127623544061835961152572427089…

This number never ends. Another term for it would be a recurring decimal, but it is not exact. Anyway, the square root of 5 is irrational since it is not defined to stop. Even if it was rounded, it would not be exact.

Hope this Helps.

The area A, in square meters, of a rectangle with a perimeter of 160 meters is given by the equation A = 80w − w2, where w is th

Sonja [21]

Answer:

the width is 10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

if the relationship between area and width is

A = 80*w − w²

for an area A=700 m² , we have

700 m² = 80*w − w²

w² - 80*w + 700 m² = 0

aw² + b*w + c = 0

where a=1 , b=-80 and c=700

this quadratic equation has as solution the following formula

w = [-b ± √ ( b² - 4*a*c) ]/(2*a)

replacing values

w = [80 ± √ ( 80² - 4*1*700) ]/(2*1) = (80 ± 60)/2

then

w₁=(80 - 60)/2 = 10 m

w₂ =(80 + 60)/2 = 70 m

since the area has the form A= length * width = 80*w − w² = (80− w)*w

then the length of the rectangle is

length = 80− w

for w₁=10 m → length = 80− 10 = 70 m

for w₁=70 m → length = 80− 70 = 10 m

by definition the shorter side is the width ( and the longer one , the length) , therefore the only possible option is the first one .

Thus the width is 10 m

The type of polynomial that would best model the data is a cubic polynomial. (Correct choice: D)

<h3>What kind of polynomial does fit best to a set of points?</h3>

In this question we must find a kind of polynomial whose form offers the best approximation to the point set, that is, the least polynomial whose mean square error is reasonable.

In a graphing tool we notice that the least polynomial must be a cubic polynomial, as there is no enough symmetry between (10, 9.37) and (14, 8.79), and the points (6, 3.88), (8, 6.48) and (10, 9.37) exhibits a pseudo-linear behavior.

an adult ticket to a museum costs 3 dollars more than a childs ticket. when 200 adult tickets and 100 childrens tickets are sold

jarptica [38.1K]

X=child's ticket price
$200(x+3)+100x=2100\\200x+600+100x=2100\\300x+600=2100\\300x=1500\\x=5$

So adult's ticket price would be:
$x+3$
$5+3=8$
