prove that √p is an irrational number , if p is not a perfect square.

[tex] \huge \frak \red{answer}[/tex]

Let us assume, to the contrary, that √p is rational. So, we can find coprime integers a and b(b ≠ 0) such that :-

=> p = a/b

=> √p b = a

=> pb² = a² ….(i) [Squaring both the sides]

=> a² is divisible by p

=> a is divisible by p So, we can write a = pc for some integer c.

Therefore,

a² = p²c² ….[Squaring both the sides]

=> pb² = p²c² ….[From (i)]

=> b² = pc²

=> b² is divisible by p

=> b is divisible by p

=> p divides both a and b.

=> a and b have at least p as a common factor.

But this contradicts the fact that a and b are coprime. This contradiction arises because we have assumed that p is rational. Therefore, p is irrational.

Answer:

x=70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Three triangles can be made out of that shape so total int. angles = 3 x 180°=540°.

so 40 + 110 + 4x + 40 + x = 540°

190+5x=540°

5x=350°

x=350/5=70°

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate.

The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k.

Answers

Answer:

3/8 , 3/6. 3/4

Tad drove the least miles because the miles ridden is less than both 3/6 and 3/4 miles

Dale rode the second greatest mile because the miles ridden is greater than 3/8 but less than 3/4

Harrison rode the greatest mile because the miles ridden is greater than both 3/6 and 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

to order the miles ridden , convert the fraction to decimals. to do this, divide the numerator by the denominator

3/4 = 0.75

3/6 = 0.5 miles

3/8 = 0.374

Given:

A figure that contains a right triangular prism and cuboid.

To find:

The volume of the figure.

Solution:

The dimensions of cuboid are 16 in, 7 in and 3 in.

So, the volume of the cuboid is:

[tex]V_1=Length\times Width \times height[/tex]

[tex]V_1=16\times 7 \times 3[/tex]

[tex]V_1=336[/tex]

The base of the prism is a right angle with base 3 in and height 5 in, and the length of the prism is 6 in. So, the base are of the prism is

[tex]B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times Base\times Height[/tex]

[tex]B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 5[/tex]

[tex]B=7.5[/tex]

The volume of a prism is:

[tex]V_2=Bh[/tex]

Where, B is the base area and h is the height of the prism.

[tex]V_2=(7.5)(6)[/tex]

[tex]V_2=45[/tex]

The volume of combined figure is:

[tex]V=V_1+V_2[/tex]

[tex]V=336+45[/tex]

[tex]V=381[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the figure is 381 cubic in.

Una moto A consume 8,2 litros de gasolina por cada 100km y otra moto B 8,9 litros de gasolina también por cada 100km. Calcula la gasolina que consume una moto en 1 km

Answers

Respuesta:

Motocicleta A = 0.082 litros por km

Motocicleta B = 0.089 litros por km

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado :

Consumo de gasolina de la motocicleta A y la motocicleta B por 100 km

Motocicleta A = 8.2 litros

Motocicleta B = 8,9 litros

Consumo por kilómetro:

Litros consumidos por 100 km / 100 km

Motocicleta A:

8.2 / 100 km

= 0,082 litros por km

Motocicleta B:

8,9 / 100 km

= 0,089 litros por km

Liam plays guitar in a band called Cool. The
band is paid $421.74 for every performance. If
Cool averages 3.5 shows per month, how much
money will the band earn in 3 months?

Answers

Answer: $4,428.27

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find out how many shows are in three months. If there is 3.5 shows in one month, multiply this by three to get the amount in 3 months.

3.5 x 3 = 10.5 shows

Now multiply the amount the band makes in one show by the number of shows.

$421.74 x 10.5 shows = $4,428.27 over the course of three months.

Please help me with this trigonometry work!

Answers

Answer:

We have a triangle rectangle here.

We know that:

AC =  15

BC = 8

AB = 17

We know that in a triangle rectangle the longest side is the hypotenuse.

In the image we can see that the shorter side is the base, then BC is the base.

AC is the height.

AB is the hypotenuse.

Such that:

A is the top vertex.

B is the bottom right vertex

C is the bottom left vertex.

Now you need to remember the relations:

Sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

Cos(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(hypotenuse)

Tan(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

then:

Sin (A) = (AC)/(AB) = 15/17 = 0.88

Cos(B) = (AC)/(AB) = 15/17 = 0.88

Tan(B) = (AC)/(CB) = 15/8 = 1.875

Now we want to find the measure of angle A.

We know that:

Sin(A) = 0.88

Then if we apply the Asin( ) function in both sides, we get:

Asin( Sin(A)) = Asin(0.88)

A = Asin(0.88) = 61.6°

(the Asin() function is the inverse of the sin() function)

Now we have:

sin(x) = 0.906

We do the same thing as before.

Asin(sin(x)) = Asin(0.906)

x = Asin(0.906) = 65°

And:

Sin(87°) = 0.999

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use the co-terminal idea Scarlett,  990° = 270 °.  You can see this just by looking at the picture.

Tan(270 ) = sin(270) / cos(270)  = -sin(90) / cos(90)   so now we know that Tan(270) is one of the non-existant angles b/c  cos(90) = 0 and that would mean that we have some number over 0... and then the universe blows up.. like my calc II professor liked to say  :| I think he was being a bit dramatic. :P anyway,  you want answers not long boring stories.. :D   so Tan(270)           DNE  ( does not exist )

If we were to look at a graph of Tan  , we'd see that at 270° or 3[tex]\pi[/tex]/2 ,  Tan runs off to infinity.   So there isn't a number to represent it.  :/    I'm attaching a picture of the  graph

notice in the graph, that when tan gets to 3/2,  it's running off to infinity ??
