b. is irrational

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok for part a, do u know that when u have a fraction as an exponent, it means take the base to the nth root? where n is the denominator in the fraction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does that help

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

not really

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

can you just solve the problems with showing the steps please

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

can you solve it @shyamani9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um. ok. Its more of explaining why something happens but ill try

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

or you could just give me the answer i wont mind

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@oleg3321 we know that \[64^{1} = 64\] so \[64^{1/2} = \sqrt{64^{1}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Look at Rational Exponents section under this awesome Hotmath guide. http://hotmath.com/hotmath_help/topics/properties-of-exponents.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[64^{1/2}= (8^{2})^{1/2}=8\], which is the sqrt of 64. Area = length*width so 7*7sqrt7: which is an irrational number

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

@study100 is that part one only

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the are would be 7*sqrt7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so for a. The answer is the square root of 64 because there is a property of exponent that states that when you have a fraction as an exponent, the answer is the base to the nth root, where n is the denominator of the fraction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the diagrams work, but it asks you to explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

part b is Area = length x width. Now what do you get for area @oleg3321

OpenStudy (oleg3321):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the second part, the answer is irrational because \[7\sqrt{7}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is irrational

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes square root of 7 cannot turn in fractions, therefore they are irrational.
