Answer:

18.87 units

Explanation:

the estimated distance from a to d is the same as a to b. we can find the length of the diagonal using pythagoras' theorem:

a² + b² = c²

√(2² + 3²) = 3.6056 (to 5s.f.)

now, we can use the same method to calculate the distance between d and c, as well as c and b:

√(3² + 5²) = 5.8310 (to 5s.f.)

adding these values, we will get:

(3.6056 + 5.8310) × 2 = 18.87 units (to the nearest hundredth)

i hope this helps! :D

Solve the simultaneous equations: 3x + 2y = 35 2x + 3y = 30

lesya [120]

Answer:

nuber 1

Simplifying

3x + 2y = 35

Solving

3x + 2y = 35

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

3x + 2y + -2y = 35 + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

3x + 0 = 35 + -2y

3x = 35 + -2y

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 11.66666667 + -0.6666666667y

Simplifying

x = 11.66666667 + -0.6666666667y

A cyclist rides her bike at a speed of

gayaneshka [121]

OK so basically when converting 2 meters per second to kilometers per hour you will get 7.2 kilometers per hour. OK so times that by 4 and you will get 28.8 kilometers in 4 hours.

Use a proof by contradiction to show that the square root of 3 is national You may use the following fact: For any integer kirke

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1. Let us proof that √3 is an irrational number, using reductio ad absurdum. Assume that $\sqrt{3}=\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are non negative integers, and the fraction $\frac{m}{n}$ is irreducible, i.e., the numbers $m$ and $n$ have no common factors.

Now, squaring the equality at the beginning we get that

$3=\frac{m^2}{n^2}$ (1)

which is equivalent to $3n^2=m^2$ . From this we can deduce that 3 divides the number $m^2$ , and necessarily 3 must divide $m$ . Thus, $m=3p$ , where $p$ is a non negative integer.

Substituting $m=3p$ into (1), we get

$3= \frac{9p^2}{n^2}$

which is equivalent to

$n^2=3p^2$ .

Thus, 3 divides $n^2$ and necessarily 3 must divide $n$ . Hence, $n=3q$ where $q$ is a non negative integer.

Notice that

$\frac{m}{n} = \frac{3p}{3q} = \frac{p}{q}$ .

The above equality means that the fraction $\frac{m}{n}$ is reducible, what contradicts our initial assumption. So, $\sqrt{3}$ is irrational.

2. Let us prove now that the multiplication of an integer and a rational number is a rational number. So, $r\in\mathbb{Q}$ , which is equivalent to say that $r=\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are non negative integers. Also, assume that $k\in\mathbb{Z}$ . So, we want to prove that $k\cdot r\in\mathbb{Z}$ . Recall that an integer $k$ can be written as

$k=\frac{k}{1}$ .

Then,

$k\cdot r = \frac{k}{1}\frac{m}{n} = \frac{mk}{n}$ .

Notice that the product $mk$ is an integer. Thus, the fraction $\frac{mk}{n}$ is a rational number. Therefore, $k\cdot r\in\mathbb{Q}$ .

3. Let us prove by reductio ad absurdum that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is an irrational number. So, we have $x$ is irrational and $p\in\mathbb{Q}$ .

Write $q=x+p$ and let us suppose that $q$ is a rational number. So, we get that

$x=q-p$ .

But the subtraction or addition of two rational numbers is rational too. Then, the number $x$ must be rational too, which is a clear contradiction with our hypothesis. Therefore, $x+p$ is irrational.
