How do you calculate the area of a sphere?
The surface area of a sphere is 4 x pi x radius2 - exactly 4 times the area of the circle you get when you cut the the sphere right through the center.
How do you solve x3 plus x2-x equals 0?
x^(3) +x^(2) - x = 0
Factor
x(x^(2) + x - 1) = 0
First part of the answerr is x = 0
Second part of the answer
x^(2) + x - 1 = 0
Use Quadratic Eq'n.
x = { -1 +/- sqrt[1^(2) - 4(1)(-1_]} / 2(1)
x = { -1 +/- sqrt[1 + 4]} / 2
x = ( -1 +/- sqrt)5)} / 2
x = =1 +/- 2.236...} / 2
x = -1/2 +/- 2.236.../2
X = -0.5 +/- 1.118...
x = - 1.618.... & x = 0.618....
So the three values of x that satisfy the equ'n are
x = 0 , -1.618.... & 0.618....
Solve the equation 2x plus 7 equals 79?
2x + 7 = 79
Subtract '7' from both sides/
Hence
2x = 72
Divide both sides by '2'
Hence
x = 36 .
How would you solve x squared minus two x minus three equals zero?
x^(2) - 2x - 3 = 0
This is a Quadratic Equation.
There are three methods to solve.
#1 ; Factor
#2 ; Complete the Square
#3 ; Use the Quadratic Equation.
Use #1 , which is the simplest method.
We note that 'x^(2) ' has a coefficient of '1' (not Shown).
We also note that the constant is '-3' . So write down the factors of '3', which are 1, & .3.
From '1' & '3' we add/subtract to make '2' the coefficient of the middle term. Hence 1 - 3 = -2
Writing up our brackets
( x 1)(x 3) = 0
Since the sign of the constant '3' is negative (-), it means that the two signs in the brackets are different (+/-)
Since the '2' is negative, then the larger number in the brackets is the negative term.
Hence
( x + 1)(x - 3) = 0
Equating each bracket to zero.
x + 1 = 0 Hence x = -1
&
x - 3 = 0 Hence x = 3
So the two solutions for 'x' are '-1' & '3'.
Is 1000 cubic centimeters 1 cubic meter?
No. A centimeter is defined as 1/100 of a meter. Thus, 100 centimeters in a meter. Envisioning a cube with sides of 1 meter is 1x1x1 meter, or 100x100x100 (Or 1,000,000 cubic centimeters.)
Thus, 1000 cubic centimeters=1/1000 of a cubic meter.
On a side note, 1000 cubic decimeters is a cubic meter.
Eight squared is like saying you take eight multiplied by eight. In this case it equals out to sixty four.
If log 12 equals 1.07918 then the anti-log equals?
The anti-log of what ??? If log(12) = 1.07918, then antilog(1.07918) = 12 Did you want the anti-log of 12 ? That's 1,000,000,000,000.
The log of a quotient is the log of a numerator divided by the log of the denominator?
No. The log of a quotient is the log of a denominator subtracted from the log of the numerator.
The Cartesian coordinate system can have more than two dimensions?
Yes!!! True!!!
The axes are x, y, & z.
Any given point is denoted by ( x,y,z).
The derivative of cosine of x is simply the negative sine of x. In mathematical terms
f'(x) = d/dx[cos(x)] = -sin(x)
How do you factorise y squared plus 9y minus 52?
y^(2) + 9y - 52 #
Write down all the factors of '52'
Hence
1, 52 ; 2 , 26 ; 4 , 13 ;
By addition or subtraction, select a pair of factors that 'add' to '9'
They are, '4' & '13' ; Hence 13 - 4 = 9
Set up ther brackets , without the signs
Hence
( y 4)(y 13)
Since '52' is negative (-) , then the two signs are different.
Since '9' is positive then the larger factor is positive(+).
Hence inserting
(y - 4)(y + 13)
Factored!!!!
Done!!!!
How do you factor x to the third power plus 125?
x^(3) + 125 =>
x^(3) + 5^(3)
This factors to
(x + 5)(x^(2) - 5x + 5^(2) ) or (x + 5)(x^(2) - 5x + 25)
NB The clue is to spot that the constant (125) is a cubic numbers ( 5^(3)).
Similarly with other 'cubic factorings'.
Calculus was created in order to calculate volume and area. Everything in our world is not able to be measured by straight lines and 90 degree angles. Its roots can be traced back the the ancient Egyptians. You can read more about the history of calculus at the link provided below.
How do you work out the volume of a square?
Since a square is a 2 dimensional object, it does not have a volume. You can however calculate the area of a square = length x width. Squares are also very useful in trigonometry.
However, you can calculate the volume of a cube (6 squares arranged edge to edge to form a box)
The volume of a cube = length x width x height
Does pi over 4 equal 45 degrees?
pi/4 radians = 45 degrees.
2pi radians = 360 degrees
pi radians = 180 degrees
pi/2 radians = 90 degrees
pi/4 radians = 45 degrees
pi/3 radians = 60 degrees.
et seq.,
What consecutive integers equal 207?
You don't say whether they've to be added or multiplied!
103 + 104 = 207; 207 = 3 x 3 x 23 so there is no solution in integers.
What is the value of x when 3x-5 equals 20?
Applying the systematic method, we get:-
3x-5+5=20-5(cancelling -5 from both sides)
3x=15
3x/3=15/3
Therefore, x=15
