Show that there exist a rational number a and an irrational number b such that a^b is irrational.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Presumably, the proof you have in mind is to use a=b=2–√a=b=2 if 2–√2√22 is rational, and otherwise use a=2–√2√a=22 and b=2–√b=2. The non-constructivity here is that, unless you know some deeper number theory than just irrationality of 2–√2, you won't know which of the two cases in the proof actually occurs, so you won't be able to give aa explicitly, say by writing a decimal approximation.

Now we can add another ratio for the whole.

Blue : Red : Total

Total is Blue + Red = 3 + 5 = 8

So

(a) f(-7) (b) f(0) (c) f(4)
(a) f(-7)=

Answers

Answer:

(a) 36, (b) 8, (c) - 8

======================

Given function

f(x) = 8 - 4x

Find the indicated values

(a) f(-7)

f(-7) = 8 - 4(-7) = 8 + 28 = 36

(b) f(0)

f(0) = 8 - 4(0) = 8 - 0 = 8

(c) f(4)

f(4) = 8 - 4(4) = 8 - 16 = - 8

Answer:

a) f(-7) = 36 b) f(0) = 8 c) f(4) = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

a) f(-7) = ?

→ f(x) = 8 - 4x

→ f(-7) = 8 - 4(-7)

→ f(-7) = 8 + 28

→ f(-7) = 36

Hence, f(-7) = 36.

b) f(0) = ?

→ f(x) = 8 - 4x

→ f(0) = 8 - 4(0)

→ f(0) = 8 - 0

→ f(0) = 8

Hence, f(0) = 8.

c) f(4) = ?

→ f(x) = 8 - 4x

→ f(4) = 8 - 4(4)

→ f(4) = 8 - 16

→ f(4) = -8

Hence, f(4) = -8.

What are fractions?

Fractions are referred to as the components of a whole in mathematics. A single object or a collection of objects might be entire. When we cut a piece of cake in real life from the entire cake, the part represents the percent of the cake. The word "fraction" is derived from Latin. "Fractus" means "broken" in Latin. The fraction was expressed verbally in earlier times. It was afterward presented in numerical form.

A piece or sector of any quantity is another name for the fraction. It is indicated by the sign "/," such as a/b. For instance, in the fraction 2/4, the lower part represents the denominator, and the top part the numerator.

In the given question, we have:

Which equation represents a line with slope of -1/3 and y intercept of 5/3?

A. X-3y=5

Answers

The equation of line with slope is -1/3 and y intercept 5/3 is : x + 3y = 5.

What is equation of line?A straight line's general equation is y = mx + c, while m denotes the gradient and y = c denotes the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. On the y-axis, this value c is referred to as the intercept. Y = mx + c represents a equation of a straight line having gradient m and intercept c mostly on y-axis.

In the form of a slope intercept, the line's equation looks like this:

y = mx + b

where

slope = m

y-intercept = b

Here given slope = -1/3

y-intercept at 5/3

As a result, the line's equation has a slope of -1 / 3.

Let's use the locations to determine the y-intercept 5/3.

y = mx + b

Here b = 5/3

By substituting ,

y = -1/3x + 5/3

For the given pair of intersecting lines, we find out that the value of x is 1 and the measure of the angle 1 is 169°.

From the figure we see that there are two lines intersecting each other.

We know,

Sum of all the angles formed = 360

We also know that

If there are a pair of two intersecting lines, then the vertically opposite angles are equal.

=> 20x+11 = 25x-14

=> 5x = 5

=> x = 1

Substituting the value of x in 20x+11 , we have

20*1 + 11 = 21°

Substituting the value of x in 25x-14 , we have

25*1 - 14 = 11°

It is also known to us that the sum of the adjacent angles of a pair of intersecting lines is equal to 180°. This implies that

11° + 1 = 180°

=> 1 = 180° - 11°

=> 1 = 169°

Thus, for the given pair of intersecting lines, we find out that the value of x is 1 and the measure of the angle 1 is 169°.

To solve an SAS triangle we use "The Law of Cosines" to calculate the unknown side.

The Law of Cosines = a² = b² + c² − 2bc cosA

where

'b' and 'c' are two given sides

'A' is the angle between side 'b' and 'c' and

a' is the unknown side which we have to find.

In ΔABC , b=21, c=20, a= AC

By the Cosine law

a² = 21²+20² - 2*21*20 cos90°

a² =441 + 400 - 0 (∵cos 90° =0)

a² = 841

a=√841

a=29= AC.

Now, in ΔCDE, b=8, c=15 and a = CE

By the Cosine law

a² = 8² + 15²- 2*8*15cos90°

a² = 64 + 225 - 0 (∵cos 90° =0)

a²= 289

a = 17 = CE.

AE = AC + CE

If Joe spent a total of $23.65 , then the cost of the paints is $5.75  .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

From the hobby shop , Joe bought 2 model sportscars for $8.95 each

the cost for 2 sports car = 8.95*2 = 17.9

the total amount spent by Joe at the shop = $23.65

let the cost of the paint be "$x" .

the above situation can be represented by the equation .

total cost = cost for 2 model cars + cost of paint

substituting the values from above ,

we get ,

23.65 = 17.9 + x

x = 23.65 - 17.9

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a plane figure or polygon with three sides and three angles.

A Triangle has three vertices and the sum of the interior angles add up to 180°

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

Given data ,

The angles of the triangle ABC are

∠A = ( 2x + 10 )°

∠B = ( 4x + 2 )°

Let angle ∠C be y

The sum of ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°  

So ,

( 2x + 10 )° + ( 4x + 2 )° + y = 180°   be equation (1)

Now , we can see that AD is a straight line and C is a point on the line AD

The total angle of C on the line AD is 180°

So , ( 5x + 27 )° + y = 180°

y = 180° - ( 5x + 27 )°   be equation (2)

Substituting the value of equation (2) in equation (1) , we get

( 2x + 10 )° + ( 4x + 2 )° + 180° - ( 5x + 27 )° = 180°

On Simplifying , we get

( 2x + 10 )° + ( 4x + 2 )° - ( 5x + 27 )° = 0

( 2x + 4x - 5x ) + ( 10 + 2 - 27 ) = 0

x - 15 = 0

Adding 15 on both sides , we get

x = 15°

Substituting the value of x in the ∠A , ∠B and ∠C equation , we get

∠A = ( 2x + 10 )°

     = 40°

∠B = ( 4x + 2 )°

     = 62°

∠C = 180° - ( ∠A + ∠B )

     = 180° - 102°

     = 78°

Therefore , the angles of the triangle ABC are 40° , 62° and 78°

The measure of ( 5x + 27 )° is

= ( 5 x 15 + 27 )°

= 102°

Hence , the measure of angles of ( 5x + 27 )° , ( 2x + 10 )° and ( 4x + 2 )° are 102° , 40° and 62° respectively

Number of sundaes = 4

Ounces of sprinkles = [tex]8\frac49[/tex] ounces

From the above parameter, we can calculate the amount of sprinkles using the constant of proportionality formula

This is represented as

Ounces per sprinkle = Ounces of sprinkles/Number of sprinkles

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Ounces per sprinkle = [tex]8\frac49[/tex]/4
