How is adding and subtracting radical expressions similar to adding and subtracting variables ?????

Mathematics

steposvetlana [31]3 years ago

Answer: To add or subtract radicals, the indices and what is inside the radical (called the radicand) must be exactly the same. If the indices and radicands are the same, then add or subtract the terms in front of each like radical. If the indices or radicands are not the same, then you can not add or subtract the radicals.

Answer:

combining like terms. if the radicand is the you can combine the radical. this is the same as combining variables as long as the variable is the same if that makes sense

Step-by-step explanation:

so like you can add 7a and 3a because they have the same variable a. you can combined 2 root 2 and 4 root 2 because the radicand is same <3

Pryce Company owns equipment that cost $65,000 when purchased on January 1, 2012. It has been depreciated using the straight-lin
ki77a [65]
Monthly depreciation is calculated as follows:
65,000 (Cost) – 5,000 (Salvage Value) ÷ 60 (5 years X 12 months per year) = 1,000 in depreciation per month.

a) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 1/1/15 is 36,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, & 2014).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
1/1/15
Cash (DR) 31,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 36,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment (CR) 2,000

b) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 5/1/15 is 40,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, 2014, & 4 months for 2015).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
5/1/15
Cash (DR) 31,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 40,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000
Gain on Sale of Equipment (CR) 6,000

c) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 1/1/15 is 36,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, & 2014).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
1/1/15
Cash (DR) 11,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 36,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment (DR) 18,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000

d) Accumulated depreciation from 1/1/12 to 10/1/15 is 45,000 (12 months for 2012, 2013, 2014, & 9 months for 2015).
Assuming that sale was a Cash sale, the journal entry would look like this:
10/1/15
Cash (DR) 11,000
Accumulated Depreciation (DR) 45,000
Loss on Sale of Equipment (DR) 9,000
Equipment (CR) 65,000

Not my answers, but I hope this will help you. :)

Use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the
babymother [125]
Pythagorean theorem is all about squaring the numbers. the equation is a^2+b^2=c^2
when you know two sides of the triangle, you fill in those spaces. they hypotenuse is ALWAYS ‘c’

to figure this problem out you put
a as 4
keep b as b since you don’t know what it is
c as 6

4 squared=16
6 squared=36

16+b^2=36
36-16=20
square root of 20 is 4.47

Solve for x. round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
iris [78.8K]

Answer: x=11.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the angle of 55 degrees, you know that the adjacent side is "x" and the length of the hypotenuse is 20.

Therefore, you need to remember the following identity:

cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

Then, knowing that:

\alpha=55\°\\adjacent=x\\hypotenuse=20

 You need to substitute these values intocos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}:

 cos(55\°)=\frac{x}{20}

Now, you can solve for "x":

20*cos(55\°)=x\\x=11.471

Rounded to the nearest hundreth:

x=11.47

Carl is making the kite shown (shorter sides measure 24 inches) with a perimeter of 120 inches
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

To solve for x the equation would be. (120 - 48) ÷ 2 = X

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because to follow pemdas you do the parenthesis first so you subtract both of the shorter sides. Next since there are two longer sides you divide by two to get the answer. Each longer side is equal to 36 inches.

Hope this helps
