The decimal 0.3 repeat represents 1/3. What the of number best describes 0.9 repeat, which is 3x0.3 repeat? Explain

0.9 repeat is not 1. 0.999, nor .9999999999 are not equal to 1. If the expansion of 9’s is stopped at any finite point, the resulting fraction (for example, 0.9999 = 9,999/10,000) will never be equal to 1. Each time a 9 is added, the error decreases, but will not take the number to 1. With each 9 added, the error becomes ten times smaller. The is no number that the sequence of 9’s gets arbitrarily close to. The error would look like 1/infinity, however, it is more precise to say that the limit of the sequence is zero.

The principal uses a computer to randomly select the name of a student from all the students in
Arlecino [84]

Complete Question

Stillwater Junior High divides students into teams taught by a group of teachers. The table shows the number of students in each team.

Team{Number of Students}

Acers{78}

Blazers{80}

Outbacks{83}

Quasars{77}

Voyagers{82}

<u>Total-400</u>

Answer:

(A)81/399

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the Principal selects a voyager on the first try is:

82/400

Since another student is to be selected, the <u>total population has reduced by 1 </u>and the <u>number of voyagers likewise has been reduced by 1.</u>

Therefore:

Probability that another voyager is selected on the second try =

81/399

<u>The correct option is A.</u>

find the slope of the curve y=x^2-2x-5 at the point P(2,5) by finding the limit of secant slopes through point P
Fynjy0 [20]

The point (2, 5) is not on the curve; probably you meant to say (2, -5)?

Consider an arbitrary point Q on the curve to the right of P, (t,y(t))=(t,t^2-2t-5), where t>2. The slope of the secant line through P and Q is given by the difference quotient,

\dfrac{(t^2-2t-5)-(-5)}{t-2}=\dfrac{t^2-2t}{t-2}=\dfrac{t(t-2)}{t-2}=t

where we are allowed to simplify because t\neq2.

Then the equation of the secant line is

y-(-5)=t(x-2)\implies y=t(x-2)-5

Taking the limit as t\to2, we have

\displaystyle\lim_{t\to2}t(x-2)-5=2(x-2)-5=2x-9

so the slope of the line tangent to the curve at P as slope 2.

- - -

We can verify this with differentiation. Taking the derivative, we get

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=2x-2

and at x=2, we get a slope of 2(2)-2=2, as expected.

Write 2.06 X 1010 in standard form.​
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

20,600,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

When writing a number in standard notation from scientific notation, counting decimal places is important. In this case, the exponent of 10 is 10. That means the decimal place must be moved 10 places; since it is positive the decimal place should be moved to the right. Finally, fill any empty spaces when moving the decimal point with zeros.
