How to simplify -64^(1/3)

Answers

-64^{(1)/(3)}=\sqrt[3]{-64}= \sqrt[3]{(-4)^3} =-4


You need to find a number that you can multiply by itself 3 times and wind up with -64 .

Like [ N x N x N = -64 ] .

Try some small numbers:

1 x 1 x 1 = 1
2 x 2 x 2 = 8
3 x 3 x 3 = 27
4 x 4 x 4 = 64 . . . There it is ... almost !  The right number, but the wrong sign.

Now try (-4).

The square of a certain negative number is equal to 5 more than one half of the number what is the number

Answers

the square of a certain negative number is equal to 5 more than one half of that number
what is that number
let x be that number
thus        x²  =  x/2 + 5
               x² - x/2 - 5 =  0
               2x² - x -10 = 0
               (2x-5) (x + 2) =  0
                 x =  5/2    or    - 2
                 so the number is    - 2

on a farm, 4 1/2 out of every 15 acres of land are used to grow crops. Wheat is grown on 5/8 of the land used to grow crops. What percentage of the total area of the land on the farm is used to grow wheat?

Answers

The answer is 18.75% (I THINK, I'm not very good at maths!) here's how I worked it out:

4.5 + 4 1/2 so for the first part it is a fraction 4.5/15 you then multiply this to 5/8 and get 225/120 which you can then simplify to 3/16 then you work out 3 divided by 16 and get 0.1875 and multiply this decimal by 100 to get the percentage, 18.75%. 

Hope this helped, but check with other people (I'm not very good at maths)! 


5x-8 (4x-7)=2 solve for x

Answers

5x - 8(4x - 7) = 2

First, expand your problem. / Your problem should look like: 5x - 32x + 56 = 2
Second, simplify 5x - 32x + 56. / Your problem should look like: -27x + 56 = 2
Third, subtract 56 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: -27x = 2 - 56
Fourth, subtract 2 - 56 to get -54. / Your problem should look like: -27x = -54
Fifth, divide both sides by -27. / Your problem should look like: x =  (-54)/(-27)
Sixth, simplify the fraction to - (54)/(27) / Your problem should look like: x =  (54)/(27)
Seventh, simplify. / Your problem should look like: x = 2

Answer: x = 2

Peggy works as a busperson and earns \$7.50/h. She also receives 9\% of the gratuities earned by all the staff. In one week she worked 35 hours and the gratuities totalled \$1936.80. What was Peggy's gross pay?

Answers

Answer: $ 436.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Hourly rate for Peggy= $7.50

Also, she receives 9% of the gratuities earned by all the staff.

Total hours she worked = 35 hours

Total gratuities = $1936.80

Gross pay = (Hourly rate ) x (Number of hours worked)+ 9% of (Total gratuities )

= $ [(7.50 ×35)+(0.09 ×1936.80)]

= $ (262.5  +174.31)

= $ 436.81

Hence, her gross pay = $436.81
