Answer:

0.\.{2}=\dfrac{2}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal the recurring decimal:

x=0.\.{2}=0.2222\dots

Multiply both sides by 10:

\implies 10x=2.222\dots

Eliminate the recurring part of the decimal by subtracting the equation of x from the equation of 10x:

\begin{array}{ l r c l}& 10x & = & 2.222...\\\\- & x & = & 0.2222...\\\\\cline{1-4}\\& 9x & = & 2\end{array}

Divide both sides by 9:

\implies x=\dfrac{2}{9}

Answer:

\sf \bold{\dfrac{2}{9}} }

Explanation:

Recurring decimal means the number keeps repeating.

0.2 is the recurring digit

x = 0.2222...

10x = 2.2222...

10x -x = 2

9x = 2

x = 2/9

0.222... ≈ 2/9

If f(x) = x^2 is vertically stretched by a factor of 6 to g(x) and reflected over the x-axis, what is the equation for g(x)?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option B

g(x) = -6x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the graph of the function g(x)=cf(x)  represents the transformations made to the graph of y= f(x)  then, by definition:

If  0 then the graph is compressed vertically by a factor c.

If  |c| > 1 then the graph is stretched vertically by a factor c

If c  then the graph is reflected on the x axis.

In this problem we have the function f(x)=x^2  

We now that this function  is vertically stretched by a factor of 6 to g(x) and reflected over the x-axis

Then  |c| =6 >0  and c=-6

Therefore the graph of g(x) is g(x) = -6f(x)

g(x) = -6x^2
