What is the additive identity of rational number​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Burka [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

zero(0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The additive identity of a set of number is a number such that the its sum with any of the numbers in the set would give a result that is equal to the number in that set.

In other words, say for example the set of numbers is rational, the additive identity of rational numbers is 0. This is because, given any rational number say <em>x</em>, adding zero to the number <em>x</em> gives the same number <em>x. </em>i.e

x + 0 = x

If x is say 2, then we have;

2 + 0 = 2

Since adding zero to rational numbers gives has no effect on the numbers, then zero (0) is the additive identity of rational numbers.

A boat travels at 15 km/hr in still water. In travelling 45 km downstream from town A to town Bit completes the journey in 75 mi
Crank
Let the speed of river be x   km/hr down stream.

Time = Distance / speed

Since river flows downstream,  speed of boat down stream = Speed of boat + speed of river =  (15 + x).

 Since river flows downstream,  speed of boat upstream = Speed of boat - speed of river =  (15 - x).

Time Upstream - Time Downstream = 75 minutes

Time Upstream =  45 / (15 - x)

Time Downstream =  45 / (15 + x)

75 minutes = 75/60  =  5/4 hours

Time Upstream - Time Downstream = 75 minutes = 5/4 hours

45 / (15 - x)    -    45 / (15 + x)  = 5/4          Divide both sides by 45

1 / (15 - x)    -    1 / (15 + x)  = (5/4)*(1/45)

 1 / (15 - x)    -    1 / (15 + x)  = 1/36

((15 + x) - (15 -x)) / (15-x)(15+x)  = 1/36

(15 +x - 15 +x) / (15-x)(15+x)  =  1/36

  2x / (15-x)(15+x)  = 1/36

 (15-x)(15+x) = 2x*36

(15-x)(15+x) = 72x

225 - x² = 72x

0 =  x² + 72x -225

x² + 72x -225 = 0            This is a quadratic function, use a calculator that can solve the function, by inputting the function.

x = 3, or -75.  Since we are solving for speed, we can not have negative values.

x = 3 is the only valid solution.

Speed of the river =  3 km/hr  downstream.
