Convert 0.45 (5 is a repeating number) to a fraction

Mathematics

Let the given number be 'x',

\begin{gathered} x=0.4\bar{5} \\ x=0.45555555\ldots\ldots \end{gathered}

Multiply both sides by 10,

\begin{gathered} 10x=4.\bar{5} \\ 10x=4.5555555\ldots\ldots \end{gathered}

Subtract the equations,

\begin{gathered} 10x-x=4.5555\ldots-0.45555\ldots \\ 9x=4.5+0.0\bar{5}-(0.4+0.0\bar{5}) \\ 9x=4.5+0.0\bar{5}-0.4-0.0\bar{5} \\ 9x=4.1 \\ 9x=\frac{41}{10} \\ x=\frac{41}{90} \end{gathered}

Thus, the recurring decimal number is equivalent to the fraction,

0.4\bar{5}=\frac{41}{90}

What is the slope of the line that passes through the poiņts (-10, 4) and (-10,8)?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Slope is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is calculated by \frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2} so now you put the points (-10,4) and (-10,8) into that.

Since both x values are the same you can tell that the line is a vertial line meaning the slope is undefined.
