Estimate the square root to the nearest integer and tenth square root of 8

Mathematics

Answer:

√

8

≈

3

Explanation:

Note that:

2

2

=

4

<

8

<

9

=

3

2

Hence the (positive) square root of  

8

is somewhere between  

2

and  

3

. Since  

8

is much closer to  

9

=

3

2

than  

4

=

2

2

, we can deduce that the closest integer to the square root is  

3

.

We can use this proximity of the square root of  

8

to  

3

to derive an efficient method for finding approximations.

Consider a quadratic with zeros  

3

+

√

8

and  

3

√

:

(

−

√

)

(

8

)

=

(

x

−

3

)

2

8

=

x

−

x

+

From this quadratic, we can define a sequence of integers recursively as follows:

⎧

⎪

⎨

⎪

⎩

a

=

0

a

1

=

1

a

n

+

2

=

6

a

n

+

1

−

a

n

The first few terms are:

0

,

1

,

6

,

35

,

204

,

1189

,

6930

,

...

The ratio between successive terms will tend very quickly towards  

3

+

√

8

.

So:

√

8

≈

6930

1189

−

3

=

3363

1189

≈

2.828427

Rodney is given twi equations:x-y=11 and 2x+y=19
lozanna [386]

Answer:

x= 10 and y= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite your second equation Y= -2x+ 19 then plug it into the first equation.

x- (-2x + 19) = 11

x + 2x - 19 =11

3x - 19 = 11

3x = 30

x = 10

The plug that answer into the first equation and solve.

10 - y = 11

-y = 1

y = -1

if the following line segment is reflected across the x-axis what are the coordinates new endpoints A.) (-1,-6) and (-3,-2) B.)
Tasya [4]

Answer:

A.) (-1,-6) and (-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line segment has coordinates

(-1,6) and (-3,2)

The mapping for a reflection in the x-axis is

(x,y)\to (x,-y)

This implies that;

(-1,6)\to (-1,-6)

and

(-3,2)\to (-3,-2)

The correct choice is A.
