Answer:

Dividing a whole number by a fraction you would just multiply the bottom number of the fraction by the whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

(here is how to divide a fraction by a whole number, if you need help on that also.)

1. Turn the whole number into a fraction. ( ex: 2=2/1)

2. Multiply the fraction by the whole number fraction.

3. Multiply the tops together and the bottoms together

Which expression is equivalent to 3 sqrt 27x^18

shusha [124]

Assuming your original expression was 3√(27x¹⁸), the answer is 9x⁹√(3).

We split up the radicand into perfect squares. Once we do, we take out the things that were squared:
$3\sqrt{27x^{18}} = 3\sqrt{3\times3\times3x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2x^2} = 3*3*xxxxxxxxx\sqrt{3}
$
$=9x^9\sqrt{3}$

Can someone pls help? ab to fail geometry. any help is nice.

Mamont248 [21]

By the law of cosines, the angle $C$ satisfies

$8.77^2=2^2+9^2-2\times2\times9\times\cos C$

which reduces to

$\cos C=0.2246\implies C=\arccos(0.2246)\approx1.34422\text{ rad}$

which converts to approximately 77 degrees (this can be done my multiplying by 180 and dividing by pi).
