Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, as shown colon

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 $=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ "

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that " Sadie simplified the expression StartRoot 54 a Superscript 7 b cubed EndRoot, where a greater-than-or-equal-to 0, "

It can be written as $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

The given expression is $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

To find Sadie's error and explain the correct answer :

Sadie's steps are

$\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

$=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$

$=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b}$

<h3> $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6a^5b}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3><h3><u>Now corrected steps are</u></h3>

$\sqrt{54a^7b^3}$ where $a≥0$

$=\sqrt{(9\times 6)(a^{6+1})(b^{2+1})$

$=\sqrt{(3^2\times 6)(a^6.a^1)(b^2.b^1)$ (by using the identity $a^{m+n}=a^m.a^n$

$=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times ((a^3)^2.a)(b^2.b)$ (by using the identity $a^{mn}=(a^m)^n$ )

$=3ab\sqrt{6ab}$

Therefore $\sqrt{54a^7b^3}=3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$

<h3>The correct answer is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>

Sadie's error is " she made error in step 2 $=\sqrt{3^2\times 6\times a^2\times a^5\times b^2\times b}$ " where $a\geqslant 0$

Because she made error in splitting the powers to simplify the square root

<h3>Therefore the correct answer for Sadie's expression is $3ab\sqrt{6ab}$ where $a\geqslant 0$ </h3>

Suppose that a system of linear equations has 3×5 augmented matrix whose 5th column is a pivot column. Is the system consistent?

Anon25 [30]

No, the system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the last column is a pivot column, then that row gives an equation that looks something like 0x+0y+0z=1 , meaning , 0=1. Clearly, this is false.

So, the system of linear equations is inconsistent.

Suppose a research paper states that the distribution of the daily sea-ice advance/retreat from each sensor is similar and is ap

Luda [366]

Answer:

The value of the parameter is λ is 0.03553357

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

$f(x) = 0.5\lambda e^{-\lambda |x|}$ for −∞ < x < ∞.

It is given that standard deviation is given as 39.8 km.

Now we need to calculate the value of parameter λ.

The general formula for the probability density function of the double exponential distribution is: $f(x)=\frac{e^{-|\frac{x-\mu}{\beta}|}}{2\beta}$

Where μ is the location parameter and β is the scale parameter.

Compare the provided equation with the above formula we get.

$\lambda=\frac{1}{\beta}$ and μ = 0.

Standard deviation = √2β

$S.D=\sqrt{2} \beta\\\beta=\frac{39.8}{\sqrt{2}}\\\beta=28.1424$

Now substitute the value of β in $\lambda=\frac{1}{\beta}$ .

$\lambda=\frac{1}{28.1424}=0.03553357$

Hence, the value of the parameter is λ is 0.03553357

If a cube-shaped cell is 3 units tall by 3 units wide and 3 units long, what is the cell's surface-area-to volume ratio?

bulgar [2K]

The cube has 6 sides, each a square with dimensions 3 by 3,

the area of any of these squares is 3*3=9 square units.

The total area of the cube is 6*9 square units=54 square units

The volume of a cube with side length a is given by : $\displaystyle{ V_{cube}=a^3$ , thus the volume of the cube-shaped cell is 3*3*3=27 cube units.

(surface area):(volume)=54:27 = 2:1 =2

Answer:

the ratio of the numerical values is 2

(their ratio including units is 2/unit
