Chapter 1: Problem 37

Perform the indicated operations and write the result in standard form. $$ \frac{-8+\sqrt{-32}}{24} $$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The simplified form of \( \frac{-8+\sqrt{-32}}{24} \) is \( \frac{-1+\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}i}{3} \).

Step by step solution

01

Understand the Imaginary Unit

In mathematics, when there is a square root of a negative number, the result is a complex value which comprises a real part and an imaginary part. The square root of -1 is represented by the imaginary unit \( i \). Hence, the square root of any negative number can be defined in terms of \( i \). The square root of -32 can be written as \( \sqrt{-32} = \sqrt{32}i = 4\sqrt{2}i \).
02

Simplify the Numerator

Substitute \( 4\sqrt{2}i \) back into the numerator of the fraction, the numerator will be as follows: \( -8+4\sqrt{2}i \).
03

Simplify the Fraction

The complete fraction after substitution is \( \frac{-8+4\sqrt{2}i}{24} \). Now divide every term in the numerator and the denominator by 8. Hence, the fraction simplifies to \( \frac{-1+\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2}i}{3} \), which is the standard form of the complex number.

An isosceles right triangle has legs that are the same length and acute angles each measuring \(45^{\circ} .\) a. Write an expression in terms of \(a\) that represents the length of the hypotenuse.\ b. Use your result from part (a) to write a sentence that describes the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle in terms of the length of a leg.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem and the square root property to solve. Express answers in simplified radical form. Then find a decimal approximation to the nearest tenth. A rectangular park is 4 miles long and 2 miles wide. How long is a pedestrian route that runs diagonally across the park?

A machine produces open boxes using square sheets of metal. The machine cuts equal-sized squares measuring 3 inches on a side from the corners and then shapes the metal into an open box by turning up the sides. If each box must have a volume of 75 cubic inches, find the length and width of the open box.

A rectangular swimming pool is 12 meters long and 8 meters wide. A tile border of uniform width is to be built around the pool using 120 square meters of tile. The tile is from a discontinued stock (so no additional materials are available) and all 120 square meters are to be used. How wide should the border be? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter. If zoning laws require at least a 2 -meterwide border around the pool, can this be done with the available tile?

The formula for converting Celsius temperature, \(C,\) to Fahrenheit temperature, \(F,\) is $$ F=\frac{9}{5} C+32 $$ If Celsius temperature ranges from \(15^{\circ}\) to \(35^{\circ},\) inclusive, what is the range for the Fahrenheit temperature? Use interval notation to express this range.
