Answer:
We all know that 22/7 is a very good approximation to pi. But this well-known fraction is is actually 1/791 larger than a slightly less-well-known but much more mysterious rational approximation for pi: . The fraction 355/113 is incredibly close to pi, within a third of a millionth of the exact value.

Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently you want to simplify ...
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
1/a^b = a^-b
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
__
So the expression simplifies as ...
Answer:
59 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
A=L*W
165=L*22
L=165/22=7.5
7.5=L
P=L+L+W+W
7.5+7.5+22+22=59
These are two questions and two answers:
Question 1:
<span>A
quadratic equation is shown below: 3x^2 − 15x + 20 = 0 Part A: Describe
the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show
your work.
Answer: </span><span>The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.
Explanation:
1) With radicand the statement means the disciminant of the quadratic function.
2) The discriminant is: b² - 4ac, where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation: ax² + bx + c
3) Then, for 3x² - 15x + 20, a = 3, b = - 15, and c = 20
and the discriminant (radicand) is: (-15)² - 4(3)(20) = 225 - 240 = - 15.
4) The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.
Question 2:
Part B: Solve 3x^2 + 5x − 8 = 0 by using an appropriate
method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the
method used.
Answer: </span> two solutions x = 1 and x = - 8/3x
Explanation:
1) I choose factoring (you may use the quadratic formula if you prefer)
2) Factoring
Given: 3x² + 5x − 8 = 0
Make 5x = 8x - 3x: 3x² + 8x - 3x - 8 = 0
Group: (3x² - 3x) + (8x - 8) = 0
Common factors for each group: 3x(x -1) + 8(x - 1) = 0
Coomon factor x - 1: (x - 1) (3x + 8) = 0
The two solutions are for each factor equal to zero:
x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1
3x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8/3
Those are the two solutions. x = 1 and x = - 8/3
