which is an irrational number? A. B. C. D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the options?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1365373510186:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d. the others are all even numbers. A. 1 B. 3 C. 7 D. 8.94427191.. it isn't a perfect number. therefore, the irrational number is √80 or D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I knew it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thax, can you help me with a few more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) you were correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the distance between point A and point B? Round to the nearest tenth.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 2.2 units B. 4.6 units C. 8.5 units D. 9.1 units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where do point a and point b stand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right In the link

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, so you will be using the distance formula. do you know what that is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[d=\sqrt{(x _{2}-x _{1})^{2}+(y _{2}-y _{1})^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, let's use A as the scripted 1's. and B as the scripted 2's. That puts the equation at: \[d=\sqrt{(5--3)^{2}+(2--1)^{2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now solve the parenthesis. (5- -3) equals what? and what does (2- -1) equal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 and 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

close.. \[5--3 \] is the same as saying 5+3 because you are subtracting a negative, I remember it as just changing the signs from "subtracting a negative" to plus a positive" This means we are at (5+3) and... what does (2--1) become?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2+1)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct! Now, we have: \[d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(3)^{2}}\] so what is 8 squared + 3 squared?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is a test, so ur relly helping

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct! and the square root of 73 is...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can I put them all in there, ill tell all my other fans on my other username to fan u!!! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure, and you don't have to do that. I'm just happy to help! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. B. C. D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.6/121 B.18/10 C.6/11 D.18/11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at it this way.. \[\sqrt{36}/\sqrt{121}\] What's the √36? What's the √121? Put them in a fraction.. and BAM!
