Answer:

$\frac{7}{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We first let 0.38 (8 being repeated) be T.

Since z is recurring in 1 decimal places, we multiply it by 10. 10z = 3.88

Next, we subtract them. 10 r T 3.88 0.38 9x 3.5

Lastly, we divide both sides by 9 to get IC as a fraction. 3.5 T 9 35 90 7 18

Answer:⁷/18

Step-by-step explanation

Make the repeating number as x

Since x is repeated in one decimal place multiple it by 10

10x=3.888

Next we subtract them

10x-1x=9x

0.38-3.88=3.5

9x=3.5

We divide both sides by 9

9x÷9=3.5÷9

X=⁷/18

Answer =⁷/18

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let a=Ann's amt., b=Betty's amt.

a=2b+9

b+2b+9=60

3b+9-9=60-9

3b=51

b=$17

a=34+9=$43

Answer:

• x = 9

• y = 6√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangles are all similar, so the ratios of hypotenuse to short side are the same:

27/x = x/3

x^2 = 81 . . . . . multiply by 3x

x = 9 . . . . . . . . take the square root

Then y can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

x^2 = y^2 + 3^2

81 - 9 = y^2 = 72 . . . . . subtract 9

y = √72 = 6√2 . . . . . . .take the square root

The values of x and y are 9 and 6√2, respectively.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. A parabola is given by the equation y = x2 − 2x − 3. The directrix of the pa

choli [55]

Answer:

Part 1) The directrix of the parabola is y=-4.25

Part 2) The focus of the parabola is F(1,-3.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=x^{2}-2x-3$

This is a vertical parabola open upward

we know that

If a parabola has a vertical axis, the standard form of the equation of the parabola is

$(x - h)^{2}=4p(y - k)$

where

p≠ 0

The vertex of this parabola is at (h, k).

The focus is at (h, k + p).

The directrix is the line y = k - p.

The axis is the line x = h.

step 1

Convert the equation of the parabola in standard form

$y=x^{2}-2x-3$

$y+3=x^{2}-2x$

$y+3+1=x^{2}-2x+1$

$y+4=x^{2}-2x+1$

$y+4=(x-1)^{2}$

$(x-1)^{2}=(y+4)$ ----> equation in standard form

The vertex is the point (1,-4)

4p=1 ------> p=1/4

step 2

Find the directrix of the parabola

The directrix is the line y = k - p

we have

k=-4

p=1/4

substitute the values

y = k - p

y=-4-(1/4)=-17/4

y=-4.25

step 3

Find the focus of the parabola

we know that

The focus is at (h, k + p).

we have

h=1

k=-4

p=1/4

substitute

F(1,-4+1/4)

F(1,-3.75)
