Answer:

First Option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

[tex]\sqrt[4]{x^{10}}[/tex]

The radicand's exponent will be made multiple of 4 to make the calculations easy

So,

[tex]= \sqrt[4]{x^8 * x^2}[/tex]

The 4 outside the radical means that the power that will be multiplied with the exponents will be 1/4

So,

[tex]= x^{(8*\frac{1}{4})} * x^{(2*\frac{1}{4})}\\=x^2 \sqrt[4]{x^2}[/tex]

As x^2 couldn't be solved using radical, it will remain inside the radical.

So the correct answer is first option..

Answer: First option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Knwing that we must find which is the equivalent expression of the expression [tex]\sqrt[4]{x^{10}}[/tex], it is important to remember the Product of powers property, which states the following:

[tex](a^m)(a^n)=a^{(m+n)}[/tex]

The we can rewrite the expression:

 [tex]=\sqrt[4]{x^8x^2}[/tex]

Hamid has gained weight. He now weighs 88kg, which is 10% higher than his normal weight. What is his normal weight?

Please help, this question is on reverse percentage.

Answers

Answer:

79.2kg

Step-by-step explanation:

So first step is to find 10% of 88, which is 8.8. And 88kg is higher than his normal weight, so his original weight would be lower than 88kg. So you subtract. 88-8.8=79.2. His normal weight is 79.2kg.

Three families went to the movies together. The Smiths ordered two tubs of popcorn, one plate of nachos, and three drinks. They spent $65. The Langes ordered three tubs of popcorn, two plates of nachos, and five drinks. They spent $85. The Radfords ordered one tub of popcorn, one plate of nachos, and two drinks. They spent $40. Which system of equations matches their night at the movies?

Answers

Answer:

2t + n + 3d = 65

3t + 2n + 5d = 85

t + n + td = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

tubs of popcorn = t

plates of nachos = n

drinks = d

The Smiths: 2t + n + 3d = 65

The Langes: 3t + 2n + 5d = 85

The Radfords: t + n + td = 40

So, the correct answer would be the one including all 3 of these equations. :)

Answer:

The system of equations are:

[tex]2t + n + 3d = 65[/tex]

[tex]3t + 2n + 5d = 85[/tex]

[tex]t + n + 2d = 40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

let "t" represents tubes of popcorn, "n" represents nachos and "d" represents drink.

The Smiths ordered two tubs of popcorn, one plate of nachos, and three drinks. They spent $65. Which can be represents as:

One fourth of all telephones at the office have built in speaker phones. One -half the phones with the built-in speaker phones have conference-call capability,how many of the phones in the office have both a speaker phone and a conference-call capability?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] of the phones in office has both a speaker phone and a conference-call capability

Step-by-step explanation:

Since total number of phones in the office is not given, the answer will be "in that terms".

let it be x

So built in speaker phones is (1/4)x

Hence conference call phones would be (1/2)(1/4x) = (1/8)x

Hence "1/8th of the phones in office has both a speaker phone and a conference-call capability"

Answer:

(1/8)x phones have both speaker phone and a conference call capability

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total phones be x

It is given that one forth of the phones have in built speaker = (1/4)x

It is also given that one half of the phone having built in speaker also have conference call capability = (1/2) of (1/4)x

                                           = (1/8)x

Therefore, (1/4)x - (1/8)x

              =  (1/8)x

(1/8)x phones have both speaker phone and a conference call capability.

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of a rectangle swimming pool is 486 feet. The width of the pool is 35 feet less than the length. Find the length and the width​

Answers

Answer:

Length: 139 feet

Width: 104 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle can be given by [tex]P = 2l + 2w[/tex]. We are given the perimeter of the pool along with the width.

[tex]P = 486[/tex]

[tex]w = l - 35[/tex]

From here, all we have to do is plug back into the original formula:

[tex]486 = 2l + 2(l - 35)[/tex]

Which can be further simplified as:

[tex]486 = 2l + 2l - 70[/tex]

[tex]486 = 4l - 70[/tex]

From here, all we have to do is add 70 to both sides of the equation and divide by four:

[tex]556 = 4l[/tex]

[tex]139 = l[/tex]

To make sure that this answer is accurate, we can find that the width of the rectangle should then be 104 (given by 139 - 35). All we have to do is plug back into the original equation:

[tex]P = 2l + 2w[/tex]

[tex]P = 2(139) + 2(104)[/tex]

[tex]P = 278 + 208[/tex]

[tex]P = 486[/tex]

And the substitution works, so the length of the rectangle would be 139 feet and the width would be 104 feet.

Answer:

Length = 139 and Width = 104 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The perimeter of a rectangle swimming pool is 486 feet. The width of the pool is 35 feet less than the length.

To find: Find the length and the width​ .

Solution: We have given that

Let the length = x

According to question

The width of the pool is 35 feet less than the length.

width = x-35

perimeter = 2(length + width)

plugging the values

486   = 2(x + x-35)

486  =  2x + 2x - 70

486  = 4x - 70

On adding by 70 both side

486 +70 = 4x-70 +70

556 = 4x

On dividing by 4 both side

139 = x

so, length = 139 .

    width = x -35 =  139- 35 = 104

Therefore,  length = 139 and width = 104.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given two coordinates and we are required to fin d the distance between them not by using the distance formula but by using Pythagoras theorem.

Let us see how we do that.

We will take the help of graph in this. We draw a line parallel to x axis passing through H (-2,-3) and a vertical line passing through I(3,2)

Let us assume that these two lines intersect at point J whose coordinates will be (-3,-3)

Now using scale of the graph we can see that Distance HJ = 5 units and IJ= 5 units and ΔHIJ makes and Right angle triangle where ∠IJH = 90°

Hence we can apply Pythagoras theorem in this.

What is the surface area?

Answers

Answer:

Surface Area of Cone = 200π cm^2

Surface Area of Right Prism = 17.5 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

32. We are given a figure of a cone and we are to find its surface area.

We know that the formula for the S.A. of cone is given by:

Surface Area of cone = [tex]\pi r(r+\sqrt{h^2+r^2} )[/tex]

Substituting the given values in the above formula.

Surface Area of cone = [tex]\pi \times 8(8+\sqrt{15^2+8^2} )[/tex] = 200π cm^2

25. We are to find the surface area of a right prism.

Surface Area of Right Prism = Base Perimeter × height + 2(Base Area)

Base Perimeter = 2(4 + 1.5) = 11 ft

Height = 0.5 ft

Base Area = 4 × 1.5 = 6 ft

Substituting these values in the above formula.

Surface Area of Right Prism = 11 × 0.5 + 2(6) = 17.5 ft^2

Answer:

Surface area of cone = 200π cm

Surface area of prism =  17.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slant height of cone

slant height l = √(r² + h²)

= √(8² + 15²)  = 17

To find the surface area of cone

Surface are = πr² + πrl

 = π*8² + π*8*17

 = 64π + 136π

 = 200π cm²

To find the surface area of prism

l = 4 ft

b = 1.5 ft and h = 0.5 ft

Surface area = 2(lb + lh + bh)

 = 2[(4* 1.5) + (4*0.5) + (1.5*.5)

 = 2(6 + 2 +0.7.5)

 = 17.5 ft²

Find the image of (-2, 1) obtained by
translating 3 units down, followed by a
reflection over the y-axis.
Please help it is urgent!!!

Answers

The y-axis runs vertically, so changing the y-coordinate moves a figure up or down. Adding a number to the y-coordinate shifts the image up, while subtracting a number shifts the figure down.

So to translate 3 units down, we just subtract 3 from the y-coordinate.

Instead of (-2, 1) it's now (-2, -2) since 1 - 3 (units) = -2

Now, another way to say "reflect across the y-axis" is to say "reflect across the line x=0" since the line created by graphing x=0 is the same as the y-axis.

An image that is a reflection across the y-axis, or across the line x=0, will have opposite x-coordinates from the pre-image but identical y-coordinates.

Therefore, the rule for reflecting an image across the y-axis can be described as (x, y) → (−x, y).

So using our translated point (-2, -2) it now becomes (2, -2).

You didn't provide an image, however, all you need to find is the translated and reflected point that lies on (2, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

D is the mid-point of AB and E is the mid-point of AC.

We have to find the missing information in given proof of DE is equal to half of BC.

Proof:

D is the mid-point of AB and E is the mid-point of AC.

The coordinates of A are (2b,2c)

The coordinates of D are (b,c)

The coordinates of E are (a+b,c)

The coordinates of  B are (0,0)

The coordinates of  C are (2a,0)

Distance formula:[tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

It was delivered in whats now the state of Washington. At that time, it was called the Washington Territory, and the new governor of the territory, Isaac Ingalls Stevens, was traveling through it, trying to convince Native Americans to give up certain stretches of land so that railroads could be built there. Seattles speech was written down by a man named Harry Smith, who published his translation 33 years later in a Seattle newspaper. His translation is obviously very much his own, as he uses words and expressions that a Native American wouldnt be familiar with. Seattles speech is interesting today for several reasons. First is his use of language. His speech relies heavily on figurative language, especially metaphors. The speech opens with the personification of the sky. Consider this statement: Yonder sky has wept tears of compassion on our fathers for centuries untold. Seattle uses that statement to show that ordinary language cant capture the sense of grief Seattle feels. Look, hes saying, our suffering is so great that even the sky weeps for us! Personification also makes the Native Americans connection to their land and environment clear. Because they were so close to nature, they felt that the land and sky would feel compassion for them. They wept for their landwhy shouldnt the land and sky weep for them? Pontiac continues using ecological metaphorsmetaphors that have to do with earth, sea, and sky. Today it is fair, tomorrow it may be overcast with clouds is a metaphor explaining Indian relations with white people. They may appear fair at the moment, but Seattle doesnt believe that these conditions will last. The next sentenceMy words are like the stars that never setemploys a simile. The statement suggests that Seattles speech will never be forgotten. Like the stars that never set, his words will be forever in the minds of Native Americans. The next sentenceMy words are like the stars that never setemploys a simile. The statement suggests that Seattles speech will never be forgotten. Like the stars that never set, his words will be forever in the minds of Native Americans. The second reason Seattles speech is remarkable is for its tone. His words seem to say one thingOkay, were giving up; well try to get along. But his tone is different. He uses veiled threats. He doesnt come right out and say, All right, white man, if you mess with us, well kill you. Instead, he suggests that he cant control his own people. For example, he refers at several points to our own angry young men who are capable of relentless cruelty. He pretends that hell try to rein them in, because their hearts are also disfigured and turn black when theyre angry at the whites. But his real meaning is clear: Our old men are not able to restrain them means that hell unleash them against the whites if the whites break treaties and try to drive the Native Americans from their homelands. Seattles main theme is that while Native Americans and whites may be forced to coexist, they can never be integrated. The overall strategy of the whites was to try to eliminate Native American culture from the North American continent. The most effective way to do this was to try to get Native Americans to forsake their traditional culture and blend in with the whites. Here are Thomas Jeffersons words on the whites strategy: Two measures are deemed expedient [to be done quickly and efficiently]. First: to encourage them [Native Americans] to abandon hunting. . . . Secondly: to multiply trading houses among them . . . leading them to agriculture, to manufactures, and to civilization. This is precisely what Chief Seattle said should never happen. In fact, he says that its impossible to integrate the two races because their cultural values are so different. To emphasize this point, he uses examples of their different spiritual practices. The basic difference between the two cultures spirituality, he says, is in the way they treat their dead. The whites basically forget theirs. The Native Americans continue to pay homage to their dead. This focus on the dead provides Seattle with a way to make his final, spooky threat. Native Americans believe that the dead still walk among them, he says. The whites would do well to think about this, for the land will be filled with the walking deadso let him [the white man] be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not altogether powerless.
