Answer:

Different type of real numbers include natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, irrational numbers, and rational numbers. Natural numbers are the set of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4...) also known as counting numbers. Whole numbers are natural numbers including zero (0, 1, 2, 3, 4...). Integers are the set of whole numbers and their opposites (-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3...). Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers. Their decimal expansions are nonending and nonrepeating. An example of an irrational number is pi (3.14). A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction. It includes integers, terminating decimals, and repeating decimals. An example of a rational number is the number 214.

What is the solution to sqrt 17-x=x+3? Show your work.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

$x=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember:

$(\sqrt[n]{a})^n=a\\\\(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2$

Given the equation $\sqrt{17-x}=x+3$ , you need to solve for the variable "x" to find its value.

You need to square both sides of the equation:

$(\sqrt{17-x})^2=(x+3)^2$

$17-x=(x+3)^2$

Simplifying, you get:

$17-x=x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2\\\\17-x=x^2+6x+9\\\\x^2+6x+9+x-17=0\\\\x^2+7x-8=0$

Factor the quadratic equation. Find two numbers whose sum be 7 and whose product be -8. These are: -1 and 8:

$(x-1)(x+8)=0$

Then:

$x_1=1\\x_2=-8$

Let's check if the first solution is correct:

$\sqrt{17-(1)}=(1)+3$

$4=4$ (It checks)

Let's check if the second solution is correct:

$\sqrt{17-(-8)}=(-8)+3$

$5\neq-5$ (It does not checks)

Therefore, the solution is:

$x=1$

You want to calculate the displacement of an object thrown over a bridge. Using -10 m/s^2 for acceleration due to gravity, what

MrRissso [65]

Answer

The total displacement of the object is 320 m

Solution-

From the formulas of mechanics,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

Where,

s = displacement

u = initial velocity = 0 ( ∵ As the body was in rest in the beginning )

t = time taken = 8 s

a = acceleration = -10 m/s² ( ∵ -ve is because of the downward motion)

Putting all the values,

$s= 0 \times 8 + \frac{1}{2}(-10)8^{2} = -320 \ m$ ( ∵ -ve displacement means it is in downwards)

Factor the polynomial. 7x2 + 68xy - 20y2 A) (7x - 2y)(x + 10y) B) (7x - 10y)(x - 2y) C) (7x + 10y)(x + 2y) D) (7x + 2y)(x - 10y)

Otrada [13]

For this case we have the following polynomial:
7x2 + 68xy - 20y2
Factoring we have:
(7x-2y) (x + 10y)
We verify the factorization:
7x2 + 70xy - 2xy - 20y2
Rewriting we have:
7x2 + 68xy - 20y2
Therefore, the factorization is correct.
Answer:
A) (7x - 2y) (x + 10y)

NEED HELP ASAP.....At the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, in the Men's Shot Put qualifying round, the distances ranged from

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

About 6 athletes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are concerned only with the percent of athletes that are above one standard deviation.

Between one standard deviation and two standard deviations, there is 13.6% of the athletes.

From 2 to 3, there is 2.1%. Above 3, there is 0.2%.

The sum of those percentages is 15.9% of 40 = 0.159 · 40 = 6.36 or about 6 athletes.

Hope this helps.
