Which point on the number line is located at approximately 13/17
1 answer:
A number line consists only of one axis, conventionally a horizontal axis. Just create a line, and scale it according to practicality and your preference. Usually, it has an interval of 1 unit. But for this case, since it is in fraction form, the interval should be smaller so that you can see clearly where it is located.
In decimal form, 13/17 is equal to 0.7647058824. Let's just round this off to 0.764, that can suffice already. So, you would expect it to be between 0.7 and 0.8 on the number line. Just estimate visually where it is located. Since, it is more than 0.75, the dot would be just slightly closer to 0.8 than 0.7. The exact location is shown in the attached picture.

Answer:
a). 59.049°C
b). 2.1179 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Expression representing the final temperature after decrease in temperature of the metal from 100°C to T°C is,
T =
where x = duration of cooling
a). Temperature when x = 5 seconds
T = 100(0.9)⁵
= 59.049
≈ 59.049°C
b). If the temperature of the metal decreases from 100°C to 80°C
Which means for T = 80°C we have to calculate the duration of cooling 'x' seconds
80 =
0.8 =
By taking log on both the sides
log(0.8) =log[]
-0.09691 = x[log(0.9)]
-0.09691 = -0.045757x
x =
x = 2.1179
x ≈ 2.1179 seconds
