5.26 is equivalent to 526/1000, which is the ratio of two integers. 526/1000 can, in turn, be reduced to 263/500, which is the same (ratio). Thus, 5.26 is rational.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Fireplace is in the form of semi-ellipse with height of 3 ft from center
Length of base=8 ft
if the arch is in the form of ellipse then it can be considered as horizontal ellipse with 2 a and 2 b be length of major and minor axis
2 a =8
a=4 ft
If contractor cover the whole base
then total length of string=2a =8 ft
(b)String should be nailed at focus
focus of ellipse is a e
where e=eccentricity


Focus 
Thus string should be nailed at 2.64 m from center
1.45 / 3 = 0.48 for 1 pack of crackers.
21.75 / 0.48 = 45.31...so she bought 45 total packs <===
60 x 0.48 = 28.80....so yes, $ 30 would be enough <==
Answer:
x = (28 +- root -64) / (8)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2 -28x= -53 = 0
x = [-(-28)+- root (-28)^2 - 4 * 4 * 53] / 2 *4
x = (28 +- root 784 - 848) / (8)
x = (28 +- root -64) / (8)
