Pablo is correct because , the number 0.8759 is rational number because it doesn't go on like pi or the square root of 2 it stops at a certain point and was probably rounded . I'm not sure if its 100% correct.

Hope this helps!

Pablo would be correct because the number 0.8759 is a rational number.


A simple way to think about this would be to realize that the number 0.8759 can be written as a fraction (8759/10000).


Another way to determine that this number is rational is that it comes to a complete stop, unlike rational numbers. For example, pi (π) will never end as its digits go on forever and ever. However, 0.8759 doesn't go on forever because there is no indication that it never terminates.

A grocery store was having a sale. Darla had $15 in her wallet. She planned to purchase 2 gallons of fruit juice, 3 bags of chip
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Darla would have to pay $17.69 before tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount in Darla's wallet = $15

She intends buying 2 gallons of fruit, 3 bags of chips and a box of cupcakes.

For the gallon of fruit

The first gallon of fruit cost $3.50

The second gallon of fruit has a discount of 50%. We have

(50/100) * 3.50

= $1.75

Therefore, the total amount for the two gallons of fruit =$3.50 + $1.75

= $5.25

Bag of chips

2 bags of chips cost $5 while 1 bag of chips cost $2.65

Since she intends to buy 3 bags of chips we have $5 + $2.65 = $7.65

1 box of cupcakes = $4.79

The total amount Darla is to pay for the groceries before tax equals

$5.25 + $7.65 + $4.79

= $17.69

This is more than the amount Darla has in her wallet
