The number c is the ___________root of a, written

The correct term which completes the statement “The number c is the ____ root of a, written
Answer to Problem 1VR
Solution:
The correct term that completes the statement “The number c is the ____ root of a, written
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The provided options are,
a) i
b) radicand
c) index
d) square
e) complex
f) cube
g) conjugate
h) radical
i) principal
j) imaginary
k) rationalizing
l) odd
Consider the provided statement is:
The number c is the ____ root of a, written
Since,
For a real number a,
Consider another real number c,
If the third power of c is a- that is, if
Then c is called the cube root of a.
Hence, the correct term that completes the statement is “cube”, which is same as option f).
Consider option a),
Since, the term
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option a) is incorrect.
Consider option b),
Radicand
Since, the radicand is the expression under the radical.
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option b) is incorrect.
Consider option c),
Index
Since, the index is the number provided to an expression.
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option c) is incorrect.
Consider option d),
Square
Since, the square root of a number exists when
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option d) is incorrect.
Consider option e),
Complex
Since, the term complex corresponds to complex numbers, Example
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option e) is incorrect.
Consider option g),
Conjugate
Since, conjugate exists for complex numbers,
Ex- conjugate of
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option g) is incorrect.
Consider option h),
Radical
Since, the radical is the expression
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option h) is incorrect.
Consider option i),
Principal
Since, principal is the root of the equation such that, non-negative numbers are included.
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option i) is incorrect.
Consider option j),
Imaginary
Since, imaginary roots are the roots which exist for equations which have no real roots.
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option j) is incorrect.
Consider option k),
Rationalizing
Since, rationalizing refers to removing irrational terms from the denominator of expressions.
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option k) is incorrect.
Consider option l),
Odd
Since, odd roots are of the type
And does not complete the statement correctly.
Hence, option l) is incorrect.
The options a), b), c), d), e), g), h), i), j), k), l) do not match the criteria of the equation most easily solved by factorizing.
Hence options a), b), c), d), e), g), h), i), j), k), l) are not correct.
Therefore, the term cube, that is option f), is the correct term that completes the statement.

How would they plan their weekend without up-to-date air temperature readings? Silent devastation - and maybe a hint of panic, also - hung in the room. Apprentice Taylor, who - as always - was late to the meeting, sensed that this was his chance to shine! Could they fake the data? At least for some hours (until the measurements would work again)? He used to spend a lot of time online and thus knew the value of fake data, especially when it spread fast! He reminded the crying professors of a prehistoric project with the title "Love your derivatives as you love yourself!" - back then, they had installed top-modern technology that not only measured the air temperature itself, but also its 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and…arrow_forward
- Consider a forest where the population of a particular plant species grows exponentially. In a real-world scenario, we often deal with systems where the analytical function describing the phenomenon is not available. In such cases, numerical methods come in handy. For the sake of this task, however, you are provided with an analytical function so that you can compare the results of the numerical methods to some ground truth. The population P(t) of the plants at time t (in years) is given by the equation: P(t) = 200 0.03 t You are tasked with estimating the rate of change of the plant population at t = 5 years using numerical differentiation methods. First, compute the value of P'(t) at t = 5 analytically. Then, estimate P'(t) at t = 5 years using the following numerical differentiation methods: ⚫ forward difference method (2nd-order accurate) 3 ⚫ backward difference method (2nd-order accurate) ⚫ central difference method (2nd-order accurate) Use h = 0.5 as the step size and round all…arrow_forwardNicole organized a new corporation.
