Given that Jon said,

"m-1 is always greater than 1-m"

we want to find how true the statement is;

\begin{gathered} \text{for m = positive integer.} \\ m=5 \\ m-1=5-1=4 \\ 1-m=1-5=-4 \\ So,\text{ } \\ m-1>1-m \\ \text{for m equals positive integer } \end{gathered}

secondly for negative values of m;

\begin{gathered} m=-5 \\ m-1=-5-1=-6 \\ 1-m=1-(-5)=1+5=6 \\ So, \\ m-1

So, the statement "m-1 is always greater than 1-m" is false.

Because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer.

Therefore, I Disagree, because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer

In one basketball season, Susan threw the ball and it went in the basket 56 times. If 7/8 of the baskets Susan threw were worth
Ket [755]

Answer:

119

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the number of baskets (56) by the denominator:

56 ÷ 8 = 7

Multiply by 7 to get the amount of 2 point baskets and multiply by 1 to get the amount of 3 point baskets. (they both add up to 56 baskets)

7 × 7 = 49

7 × 1 = 7

multiply the 49, 2 point baskets by 2 and the 7, 3 point baskets by 3 and add them together to get the total points.

49 × 2 = 98

7 × 3 = 21

98 + 21 = 119

Which rational number equals 0 point 3 with bar over 3? Question 2 options: 1) 1 over 5 2) 1 over 3 3) 3 over 10 4) 3 over 5
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

 2) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The repeating decimal can be converted to a fraction by multiplying it by 10^n and subtracting the original value. n = number of repeating digits. This process cancels all of the repeating digits, so you can find the equivalent fraction.

  x=0.\overline{3}\\\\10x -x=3.\overline{3}-0.\overline{3}=3\\\\x=\dfrac{3}{9}\\\\0.\overline{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}

_____

Your calculator can help you answer this:

  1/5 = 0.2

  1/3 = 0.333.... (repeating) . . . . the number you're looking for

  3/10 = 0.3

  3/5 = 0.6
