`0.3` is root of `x^(2)- 0.9 =0.`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To determine whether `0.3` is a root of the equation \( x^2 - 0.9 = 0 \), we will substitute `0.3` into the equation and see if it satisfies the equation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write down the equation**: \[ x^2 - 0.9 = 0 \] 2. **Substitute `0.3` into the equation**: \[ (0.3)^2 - 0.9 = 0 \] 3. **Calculate \( (0.3)^2 \)**: \[ (0.3)^2 = 0.09 \] 4. **Substitute this value back into the equation**: \[ 0.09 - 0.9 = 0 \] 5. **Perform the subtraction**: \[ 0.09 - 0.9 = -0.81 \] 6. **Check if the result equals zero**: \[ -0.81 \neq 0 \] Since the left-hand side of the equation does not equal zero, we conclude that `0.3` is not a root of the equation \( x^2 - 0.9 = 0 \). ### Conclusion: The statement that `0.3` is a root of the equation \( x^2 - 0.9 = 0 \) is **false**.
