What is the square root of 8 rounded to the nearest tenth?

1 answer:

8 0

Square Root of 8 to the nearest tenth, means to calculate the square root of 8 where the answer should only have one number after the decimal point.

Here are step-by-step instructions for how to get the square root of 8 to the nearest tenth:

Step 1: Calculate

We calculate the square root of 8 to be:

√8 = 2.82842712474619

Step 2: Reduce

Reduce the tail of the answer above to two numbers after the decimal point:

2.82

Step 3: Round

Round 2.82 so you only have one digit after the decimal point to get the answer:

2.8

To check that the answer is correct, use your calculator to confirm that 2.82 is about 8.

a cylinder and a cone have the same radius and height. The volume of the cylinder is 534ft3 . what volume of the cone?

DochEvi [55]

Answer: 178 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

A cylinder has the formula V=pi radius ^2 height

A cone has the formula V= 1/3 pi radius ^2 height

So 1/3 of the volume of the cylinder is the volume of a cone

1/3 of 534 = 178 ft^3

The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times it's base. If the base of the triangle is x feet, and the area of the triangle i

____ [38]

Answer:

Area A = 12 = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)

5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0

Solution;

Base x = 2.4

Height h = 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

base of the triangle is x feet;

Base = x

The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times it's base;

Height = 5x - 2

the area of the triangle is 12 square feet;

Area A = 12 ft^2

The area of a triangle is;

Area A = 1/2 × base × height

Substituting the base and height;;

Area A = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)

Area A = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)

Area A = 12

12 = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)

Multiply through by 2.

24 = (5x^2 - 2x)

5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0

Solving the simultaneous equation;

x = 2.4 or -2

Since the base cannot be negative;

x = 2.4 ft

Height h = 5x -2 = 5(2.4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10 ft

Base x = 2.4

Height h = 10 ft

Which best describes the relationship between the two triangles below?

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

They are SIMILAR triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangles MNL and FHG with two of their angles to be 51° and 36° respectively. Their third angle is expressed as:

180°-(51°+36°)

= 180°-87°

= 93°

Their third angle is 93°

Since both triangles have the same angles in them, both triangles are considered as similar triangle even though the value of their sides are different due to angle differences in both.

Note that individual triangles are scalene triangles since their angles are not the same but the both triangles are similar triangles based on their relationship.

Please help with #35 I don’t get it and I’m really stressed

skad [1K]

Don't let it get to ya. If they didn't think you're capable of answering this question, they wouldn't ask you. So they know your abilities better than you do.

We don't know the unknown number, so in order to discuss it, we have to give it some kind of a name. We could call it 'x', 'y', 'Ana, 'Q', or 'Ralph'. Let's call it 't'.

The unknown number . . . . . t

Five times the number . . . . . 5t

Nine less than five times the number . . . . . 5t - 9 . Hold on to this quantity.

Twice the number . . . . . 2t .

Three more than twice the number . . . . . 2t + 3. Hold on to this quantity too.

The question says that these two quantities are equal. So the equation is

5t - 9 = 2t + 3 . This is the equation in both choices 'c' and 'd' . I guess we'll have to solve it to find out which choice is the correct one.

The equation is . . . . . 5t - 9 = 2t + 3

Add 9 to each side . . . . . 5t = 2t + 12

Subtract 2t from each side . . . 3t = 12

Divide each side by 3 . . . . . t = 4 .

It looks like choice-d is the winner.
