X = 9 is the correct answer

Fantom [35]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 3x = -22

1.) Subtract 5 from itself, then from -22. That then cancels out the 5 on the left and gives you -27 on the right

3x = -27

2.) Divide 3x and -27 by 3 which is the coefficient in this problem.

x = -9

Mike and Beth both write the decimal 0.8 (0.88888...)as a fraction. Mike: 45 Beth: 89 Which student wrote the correct fraction?

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

0.888...

This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)

Convert to fraction number

Let

x=0.888...

10x=8.888...

Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal

10x-x=8.888...-0.888...

9x=8

Solve for x

x=8/9

therefore

Mike fraction is incorrect

because 4/5=0.8

0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)

Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal

Beth is correct

because

If you divide 8/9

the result is 0.8888888...
