Answer:

  3√3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the problem shown here, your answer 3√3 is correct.

When there is a radical by itself in the denominator, you multiply numerator and denominator by a radical that results in the product being rational. For a square root, that will usually be the same square root:

  \dfrac{9}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{9}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{9\sqrt{3}}{3}=\boxed{3\sqrt{3}}

__

If the problem has a sum in the denominator involving a square root, then you multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of that sum (the sum with the sign changed). This uses the special product "difference of squares" to eliminate the radical term.

<u>Example</u>:

  \dfrac{9}{2-\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{9}{2-\sqrt{3}}\cdot\dfrac{2+\sqrt{3}}{2+\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{9(2+\sqrt{3})}{2^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}=\dfrac{18+9\sqrt{3}}{4-3}\\\\=\boxed{18+9\sqrt{3}}

__

It is easy to demonstrate that none of the offered choices for this problem has the same value as 9/√3.

9/√3 ≈ 5.196. Offered choices have values of about 4.798, 1.732, 6.681, 23.196 -- none even close.

Please discuss this question with your teacher.

Elena receives ​$131 per year in simple interest from three investments totaling ​$3000. Part is invested at​ 3%, part at​ 4% an
ioda

Answer:

Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Elena receives $ 131 per year in simple interest from three investments totaling $ 3000, and part is invested at 3%, part at 4% and part at 5%, and there is $ 1000 more invested at 5% than at 4%, to find the amount invested at each rate, the following calculations must be performed:

1500 x 0.05 + 500 x 0.04 + 1000 x 0.03 = 75 + 20 + 30 = 125

1600 x 0.05 + 600 x 0.04 + 800 x 0.03 = 80 + 24 + 24 = 128

1700 x 0.05 + 700 x 0.04 + 600 x 0.03 = 85 + 28 + 18 = 131

Therefore, Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%

Eight women and six men apply for a job at Google. Four of the applicants are selected for interviews. Let X denote the number o
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

images attached showing all working

a) The possible values of X are as follows

X = {0,1,2,3,4}

P(x) = P(X=x)

b) The cdf in this case, as in the F(x), comes out to be a step function graph on the basis of values obtained from the probability mass function.

c) To find out the probability when more women are interviewed than me, add together the matrices from when value of X is equal to 2, 3 and 4 (from part a).

A music store sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets in one month. Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99. If total s
vodomira [7]
Answer: 16

Solution:

1) Use letters to identify the variables:

Number of trumpets: t
Number of clarinets: c

2) Translate each statement into algebraic (mathematical) language.

2.1) Sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets

=> t + c = 27

2.2) Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99

Total cost of the trumpets: 149t
Total cost of clarinets: 99c

Total cost = 149t + 99c

2.3) Total sales were $3223

=> 149t + 99c = 3223.

3) State the system of equations:

Equation (1) t + c = 27
Equation (2) 149t + 99c = 3223

4) Solve the system of equations:

4.1) Multiply equation 1 by 149:

=> 149t + 149c = 4023

4.2) Subtract the equation (2) from the equation obtained in 4.1

=> 149c - 99c = 4023 - 3223

=> 50c = 800

=> c = 800 / 50 = 16

5) Verify the solution:

From equation (1) t = 27 - 16 = 11

Total cost = 149*11 + 99*16 = 3223

Now you have a verified answer: they sold 16 clarinets

Casey wants to buy a gym membership. Gym A has a $150 joining fee and costs $35 per month. Gym B has no joining fee and costs $6
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Gym A has a $150 joining fee and costs $35 per month.

Assuming that Casey wants to attend for x months, the cost of using gym A will be

150 + 35 times x months. It becomes

150 + 35x

Gym B has no joining fee and costs $60 per month.

Again, assuming that Casey wants to attend for x months, the cost of using gym B will be

60 × x months = 60x

A) To determine the number of months that it will both gym memberships to be the same, we will equate them.

150 + 35x = 60x

60x - 35x = 150

25x = 150

x = 150/25 = 6

It will take 6 months for both gym memberships to be the same.

B) If Casey plans to only go to the gym for 5 months,

Plan A will cost 150 + 35×5 = $325

Plan B will cost 60 × 5 = $300

Plan B will be cheaper
