Answer: 7.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

think of it as a triangle; the bold line is the hypotenuse, or x.

 8   |\   x

      |_\              it's not a good triangle but you get the point

       6

and then get out pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

put the numbers in: 8^2 + 6^2 = x^2

do some math:

64+36=x^2

100=x^2 (and then find square root)

10=x

<u>BUT</u>, it said each unit was 3/4 of a mile, so we must multiply 10 by 3/4 to get the actual distance, which is 7.5

Habib wants to cover a kitchen wall in ceramic tile. The wall is 42 feet by 10 feet.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: Side of largest square tile will be 105 feet.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

dimensions of the wall is 42 feet by 10 feet

So,

Length of wall = 42 feet

Breadth of wall = 10 feet

First we calculate the H.C.F. of 42 and 10,

which is 2 only.

The largest square tile side would be 2 feet.

Now, we find the number of tiles used,

Number of tiles =

\frac{\text{Area of wall}}{\text{H.C.F. of }42\text{ and }11\times\text{ H.C.F. of }42\text{ and } 11}}\\\\=\frac{42\times 10}{2\times 2}\\\\=\frac{420}{4}\\\\=105

We get integer value of number of tiles.

Therefore, Side of largest square tile will be 2 feet.

Convert 5 square root of a into exponential form?
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The answer is:  " 5a^\frac{1}{2} "  .

_____________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

______________________________________________

We are asked to convert "5 square root of a"  ;  into "exponential form".

Note that "5 square root of a" ;

             or;  " 5 root a " ;

means:    " 5 times the {square root of the variable, "a" };

      or :    " 5 multiplied by the {square root of the variable, "a" }.

_______________________________________________

This can be written as:   " 5\sqrt{a} " .

_______________________________________________

<u>Note the following property of exponents</u>:

\sqrt[n]{a^m} = (\sqrt[n]{a})^m = a^m^n .

_____________________________________________

So;  to write:  " √a "  ;  <u> </u><em><u>as an exponent</u></em><u> </u> :

______________________________________________

<u>Note</u>:  

" \sqrt{a}  = \sqrt[2]{a} =   \sqrt[2]{a^1} = (\sqrt[2]{a})^1 =  a^\frac{1}{2} " .

_______________________________________________

<u>So</u>:

" \sqrt{a}  =  a^\frac{1}{2} "  ;

_______________________________________________

<u>And</u>:

________________________________________________

" 5\sqrt{a}  =  5a^\frac{1}{2} " .

________________________________________________

   →   The answer is:  " 5a^\frac{1}{2} " .

________________________________________________

Hope this helps!

   Best wishes in your academic endeavors

           — and within the "Brainly" community!

If x is a rational number and y is the opposite of x, why do x and y have the same absolute value
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Absolute value is the distance away from zero, so if x is a rational number and y is opposite, they would both be the same distance away from zero, regardless of their sign.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is the distance of a number away from zero.  For example, if x is equal to the rational number -2, the absolute value of -2 is just 2, given that both 2 and -2 are only a distance of 2 away from the number zero.  Think of it as your walk or drive to school.  If you live 4 miles from school, you drive a distance of 4 miles there and 4 miles back.  That distance is not calculated as a positive 4 miles there and a negative 4 miles back, but rather just 4 miles there and 4 miles back, for a total distance of 8 miles.  So, if x=4 and y=(-4), the absolute value of both would be 4.
