A rational number is any number that can be written as a ratio of two integers (hence the name!). In other words, a number is rational if we can write it as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are both integers.

5 is a rational number because it can be expressed as the quotient of two integers: 5÷ 1

Hope this helps!! ;))

<span>Every integer is a rational number, since each integer n can be written in the form n/1. For example 5 = 5/1 and thus 5 is a rational number. i hope this helps you</span>

Ball B, with a mass of 30kg, is moving to the left at -10 m/s. With what velocity should Ball A, with a mass of 10 kg, move to t

tangare [24]

Initially, Ball A of 10 kg will have velocity x, while Ball B of 30 kg has velocity -10 m/s.
After collision, Ball A will have a velocity of -30 m/s, while Ball B will have velocity 10 m/s. We assume their masses do not change.
(10 kg)(x m/s) + (30 kg)(-10 m/s) = (10 kg)(-30 m/s) + (30 kg)(10 m/s)
10x - 300 = -300 + 300
x = 30 m/s (to the right)

True or false? In a proof, every new statement in the first column must be justified by a reason in the second column.

What is measure of cgf?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle adds up to 180.

180 - 50 = 130

Since both of the missing angles are congruent each of the missing angles is 65 degrees.

130/2 = 65

As per the exterior angle theorem, the measure of the exterior angle is determined by the sum of the opposite interior angles.

65 + 65 = 130

So, the measure of

Which of the following equations could be th equation to represent the given graph? Make sure you explain your answer thoroughly

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Option (C) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given options of the possible equation for the graph are as follows:

$(A) y=2\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^x \\\\(B) y=-2\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{-x} \\\\(C) y=2\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^x \\\\(D) y=-2\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{-x} \\\\$

The given graph is decreasing and at x=0, y=2.

So, first checking the value of the given options for x=0

$(A) y=2\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^0=2\times 1= 2 \\\\(B) y=--2\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{-0}= -2\times 1= -2 \; (not\; possible) \\\\(C) y=2\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^0= 2\times 1= 2 \\\\(D) y=2\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{-0} = -2\times 1= -2 \; (not\; possible)$
