Answer:
1. Assume the contrary, namely that √2 + √3 + √5 = r, where r is a rational number.
Square the equality √2 + √3 = r − √5 to obtain 5 + 2
√6 = r2 + 5 − 2r
√5. It follows
that 2√6 + 2r
√5 is itself rational. Squaring again, we find that 24 + 20r2 + 8r
√30
is rational, and hence √30 is rational, too. Pythagoras’ method for proving that √2 is
irrational can now be applied to show that this is not true. Write √30 = m
n in lowest
terms; then transform this into m2 = 30n2. It follows that m is divisible by 2 and because
2( m
2 )2 = 15n2 it follows that n is divisible by 2 as well. So the fraction was not in lowest
terms, a contradiction. We conclude that the initial assumption was false, and therefore
√2 + √3 + √5 is irrational.

Answer:
f(x) = -1/2·10^x
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is -1/2.
The common ratio is (-1/20)/(-1/200) = 10, so the exponential function can be written as ...

a. Use the Point-Slope form to find the equation of the line through the points (-5, 2) and (-2, 6).
b. Write the equation from part (a) above into the General as well as the slope-intercept form showing every step.
c. Find the x and y-intercepts of the equation above.
Answer:
a) y = 4/3x + 26/3
b) 4x - 3y + 26 = 0
c) x-int: (-6 1/2, 0)
y-int: (0, 8 2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) to get points into the point-slope form you first find the slope by taking the difference of the y-values over the difference of the x-values;
slope (m) = (6 - 2) / (-2 - -5) = 4/3
plug 4/3 into 'm' and select one of the two points to plug in their 'x' and 'y' values so you can find 'b' (the y-intercept)
y = mx + b
6 = 4/3(-2) + b
6 = -8/3 + b
b = 6 + 8/3 = 18/3 + 8/3 or 26/3 (or 8.67)
so, put it all together to get the p-s form of y = 4/3x + 26/3
b) general equation is Ax + By + C = 0
take y = 4/3x + 26/3 and multiply each side by 3 to remove denominators
you get: 3y = 4x + 26; rearrange to get 4x - 3y + 26 = 0
c) y-intercept is (0, 8 2/3); derived during step (a)
to get x-intercept, plug zero in for 'y' and solve for 'x':
0 = 4/3x + 26/3
-4/3x = 26/3
cross-multiply and get 12x = -78
x = -78/12 or -39/6 or -6 1/2
What is the volume of the prism?
Answer:
VOLUME OF PRISM = L X W X H (or) LWH
so, L = 2 in
W = [tex]2\frac{1}{4}[/tex] in (or) [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] in
H = 4 in
volume = 2 x [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] x 4 = 18 in³
Lincoln told his mother that 4 5/10
represents his height, in feet. Which decimal measurement represents Lincoln's height?
Answer:
[tex]4.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the answer to this question you will first need to convert Lincolns height into a improper fraction and then convert the improper fraction into a decimal number.
[tex]L =4\frac{5}{10}[/tex]
Convert into improper fraction
[tex]4\frac{5}{10} =10 \times4=40+5=45=\frac{45}{10}[/tex]
Convert into decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator:
[tex]45\div10=4.5[/tex]
[tex]L=4.5[/tex]

In an urban area, 31% of dog owners pay for someone to walk their dogs. Morgan asks a random sample of 50 dog owners in this urban area if they pay for someone to walk their dog. What is the probability that more than 30% of the owners in the sample pay for someone to walk their dog?
A. 0.439
B. 0.519
C. 0.561
D. 0.586
Answer:
c 0.561
Step-by-step explanation:
did the test on edge
The probability that more than 30% of the owners in the sample pay for someone to walk their dog is option c. 0.561.
Calculation of the probability:Since 31% of dog owners pay for someone to walk their dogs. Morgan asks a random sample of 50 dog
So
= P> ( 0.30 - 0.31) / √0.31 (1 - 0.31)/ 50
= P(z > - 0.1530)
= 0.5608
= 0.561
Hence, the option c is correct.

determine the relationship between the measures of the given angles
∠PTV > ∠VPT. This is because the angle opposite to the larger side is greater.
What are angles and dihedral angles? What is equation modelling? In Euclidean geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. Angles formed by two rays lie in the plane that contains the rays. Angles are also formed by the intersection of two planes. These are called dihedral angles.Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.Given is a 2 - D image as shown in the question.
It can be concluded that ∠PTV > ∠VPT. This is because the angle opposite to the larger side is greater.
Therefore, ∠PTV > ∠VPT. This is because the angle opposite to the larger side is greater.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
cos²x = 1-sin²x = 1-(5/13)² = 144/169

A birdwatcher on a cliff saw a eagle 70 feet above him. Earlier, he had spotted the eagle 30 feet above him. Which integer represents the eagle's change in altitude?
The integer that represents the altitude change is -40
How to determine the integer that represents the altitude change?From the question, the positions of the eagle are
70 feet above him and 30 feet above him
Rewrite the positions of the eagle properly
This is done as follows
Position 1 = 70
Position 3 = 30
The expression of the altitude change in the position of the eagle is then calculated as
Change = Position 2 - Position 1
Substitute the known values in the above equation
So, we have the following equation
Change = 30 - 70
Evaluate
Change = -40
Hence, the altitude change is -40

Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given variable definitions, we can write the equations ...
y = x + 9
2(x +y) = 30
__
Solving the second equation for y, we have ...
y = 15 -x
Substituting this into the first equation gives ...
15 -x = x +9
6 = 2x . . . . . . . . . add x-9
3 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
