Use Einstein's special-relativity equation $$R_{a}=R_{f} \sqrt{1-\left(\frac{v}{c}\right)^{2}}$$ described in the Blitzer Bonus on page \(47,\) to solve this exercise. You are moving at \(90 \%\) of the speed of light. Substitute \(0.9 c\) for \(v,\) your velocity, in the equation. What is your aging rate, correct to two decimal places, relative to a friend on Earth? If you are gone for 44 weeks, approximately how many weeks have passed for your friend?
Our hearts beat approximately 70 times per minute. Express in scientific notation how many times the heart beats over a lifetime of 80 years. Round the decimal factor in your scientific notation answer to two decimal places.
Simplify using properties of exponents. $$\left(x^{\frac{4}{5}}\right)^{5}$$
The early Greeks believed that the most pleasing of all rectangles were golden rectangles, whose ratio of width to height is $$\frac{w}{h}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}-1}$$ The Parthenon at Athens fits into a golden rectangle once the triangular pediment is reconstructed. (IMAGE CANT COPY) Rationalize the denominator of the golden ratio. Then use a calculator and find the ratio of width to height, correct to the nearest hundredth, in golden rectangles.
Exercises \(142-144\) will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. Simplify and express the answer in descending powers of \(x\) : $$2 x\left(x^{2}+4 x+5\right)+3\left(x^{2}+4 x+5\right)$$
