Answer:

w = l + \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

(Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong)

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we start the solving, we can make the following statements:

Area = l x w

Area = 5x + 25

therefore,

l x w = 5x + 25

Since the question states that the length is x more than the width, so we can make the following statement:

w = l + x

With this, we can substitute it to the first statement we made, l x w = 5x + 25,

l x (l + x) = 5x + 25

l^{2} + lx = 5x + 25

lx - 5x = 25 - l^{2}

x(l - 5) = 25 - l^{2}

x = \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

From this, we can find w by substituting it in the statement we made earlier, w = l + x,

w = l + \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

Solve for the values of x in the equation: <br> 2^(x) = 4x.
Eva8 [605]

There are two of them. 

I don't know a mechanical way to 'solve' for them.

One can be found by trial and error:

x=0 . . . . . 2^0 = 1 . . . . . 4(0) = 0 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=1 . . . . . 2^1 = 2 . . . . . 4(1) = 4 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=2 . . . . . 2^2 = 4 . . . . . 4(2) = 8 . . . . . no, that doesn't work
x=3 . . . . . 2^3 = 8 . . . . . 4(3) = 12 . . . . no, that doesn't work
<em>x=4</em> . . . . . 2^4 = <em><u>16</u></em> . . . . 4(4) = <em><u>16</u></em> . . . . Yes !  That works !       yay !

For the other one, I constructed tables of values for 2^x and (4x)
in a spread sheet, then graphed them, and looked for the point
where the graphs of the two expressions cross.

The point is near, but not exactly,         <em>x = 0.30990693...

</em>
If there's a way to find an analytical expression for the value, it must involve
some esoteric kind of math operations that I didn't learn in high school or
engineering school, and which has thus far eluded me during my lengthy
residency in the college of hard knocks.<em> </em> If anybody out there has it, I'm
waiting with all ears.<em>

Identify all number sets to which the square root of 25 belongs to.
const2013 [10]

Answer:

SOLUTION: Explain why the square root of 25 belongs to 4 subsets of the real numbers , but the square root of 5 only belongs to 1 . tell which subsets each belong to and why .

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of 25 is 5, which  

1. A rational number, since 5 is the ratio of the two integers 5 and 1.

2. An integer since 5 is an element of {...,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,.}  

3. A whole number, since 5 is an element of {0,1,2,3.}

4. A counting number, since 5 is an element of {1,2,3,}

The square root of 5 is only  

1. An irrational number, since it is not the ratio of any two integers.

[It can only be approximated by

this nonrepeating infinite decimal, it goes on forever:
