The value of √-9 is not -3 because_______.A. 9^2 not congruent to -3
B. (-3)^2 not congruent to -9
C. 3^2 not congruent to -9
D. (-9)^2 not congruent to -3

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: B, because -3^2 is not -9. -3*-3 = 9, square roots of negative numbers aren't possible, because no number squared can be equal to them. Instead, they are expressed in terms of "i", which is defined as

i^2 = -1


Answer 2
Answer: The value of √-9 is not -3 because B. (-3)^2 not congruent to -9. 

This is the answer because, (-3)^2 = 9 NOT -9. Any negative squared is equal to the positive squared. E.g. 2^2=4 & (-2)^2=4. Another tip is that in the number in the square root sign is negative the answer is no solution as it is impossible to square a number and get a negative answer.

An article retails for $38.50. The city sales tax is 4%, and the federal excise tax is 7%. How much is the total tax?

Answers

4/100; 38.50 x 0.04= $1.54
7/100; 38.50 x 0.07= $2.70
 
$1.54 + $2.70= $4.24
First you add the two tax percentages together- 11%
Then you must find what 11% of $38.50 is;
So, you multiply $38.50 by .11; which is the equivalent of 11% of the total.
This equals $4.235, which would be your total tax.

Solve for all possible values of x. square root of the quantity x minus 9 end quantity plus 4 equals 8

a) x = −5
b) x = 7
c) x = 13
d)x = 25

Answers

Answer:

Option d)  x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

√(x-9)+4=8

Solve for x

Subtract 4 both sides

√(x-9)+4-4=8-4

√(x-9)=4

squared both sides

(x-9)=(+/-)4^2

(x-9)=(+/-)16

Adds 9 both sides

x=9(+/-)16

x1=9(+)16=25

x2=9(-)16=-7

Verify

1) For x=25

√(25-9)=4

√(16)=4

4=4 ----> is true

therefore

x=25 is a solution

2) For x=-7

√(-7-9)=4

√(-16)=4

The radicand cannot be a negative number

therefore

x=-7 is not a solution

How do you solve this ?
