Given :-

The given triangle is isosceles triangle.
Length of one side is 4 .

To Find :-

The value of x in simplest radical form.

Solution :-

The given triangle is a right isosceles triangle . So here we can use the Pythagoras theorem as ,

$\longrightarrow$ hypotenuse² = perpendicular ² + base²

$\longrightarrow$ x² = 4² + 4²

$\longrightarrow$ x² = 16 + 16

$\longrightarrow$ x² = 32

$\longrightarrow$ x = √32

$\longrightarrow$ x = √2⁵

$\longrightarrow$ x = 4 × 1.732

$\longrightarrow$ x = 6.928 ≈ 7

Alex runs on the track at school each weekday morning. If he runs 5.9 miles each day, about how much does he run every month?

Lisa [10]

Now, since we know that 5.9 is the amount of miles per day, we need to determine how many miles per month.

Usually, there are 20 days...because of no weekdays

Multiply.

5.9 * 20 = 118

Final answer:- He runs 118 miles per month.

Use the compound interest formula A =P(1 + r) t and the given information to solve for r.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Rounding to nearest hundredths gives us r=0.06.

So r is about 6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given:

$A=P(1+r)^t$

where

$A=2300$

$P=1600$

$t=6$ .

$A=P(1+r)^t$

$2300=1600(1+r)^6$

Divide both sides by 1600:

$\frac{2300}{1600}=(1+r)^6$

Simplify:

$\frac{23}{16}=(1+r)^6$

Take the 6th root of both sides:

$\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}=1+r$

Subtract 1 on both sides:

$\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}-1=r$

So the exact solution is $r=\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}-1$

Most likely we are asked to round to a certain place value.

I'm going to put my value for r into my calculator.

r=0.062350864

Rounding to nearest hundredths gives us r=0.06.

Orthogonalizing vectors. Suppose that a and b are any n-vectors. Show that we can always find a scalar γ so that (a − γb) ⊥ b, a

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

$\\ \gamma= \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question to be solved is the following :

Suppose that a and b are any n-vectors. Show that we can always find a scalar γ so that (a − γb) ⊥ b, and that γ is unique if $b \neq 0$ . Recall that given two vectors a,b a⊥ b if and only if $a\cdot b =0$ where $\cdot$ is the dot product defined in $\mathbb{R}^n$ . Suposse that $b\neq 0$ . We want to find γ such that $(a-\gamma b)\cdot b=0$ . Given that the dot product can be distributed and that it is linear, the following equation is obtained

$(a-\gamma b)\cdot b = 0 = a\cdot b - (\gamma b)\cdot b= a\cdot b - \gamma b\cdot b$

Recall that $a\cdot b, b\cdot b$ are both real numbers, so by solving the value of γ, we get that

$\gamma= \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}$

By construction, this γ is unique if $b\neq 0$ , since if there was a $\gamma_2$ such that $(a-\gamma_2b)\cdot b = 0$ , then

$\gamma_2 = \frac{a\cdot b}{b\cdot b}= \gamma$

a chef has 5 blocks of butter. Each weights 1 pound. she cuts each block into fourths. how many 1/4 pound pieces of butter does

lianna [129]

The answer would be 20 because you have 5 blocks that are cut into 1/4. It doesn't say anything about any of the pieces disappearing or being used yet so you multiply 4*5 and then you get the answer.
