Answer: 2/5

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.4 is four tenths, so we can write 0.4 as the fraction 4/10.

Notice however that 4/10 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 4 and 10 which is 2.

So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 2/5.

Therefore, 0.4 can be written as the fraction 2/5 which is in lowest terms.

A gallon of stain is enough to cover 200 square feet of decking. Bradley has two areas of decking he would like to cover with st

Pani-rosa [81]

The expression that we need to get is:

$N = \frac{(23)*(10.4) + (10.5)*(7.2)}{200}$

So the correct option is the second one.

<h3>Which expression gives the number of gallons of stain Bradley will need?</h3>

We know that 1 gallon is enough to cover 200 ft².

We have two rectangular areas, one of:

23 feet by 10.4 feet, and other of 10.5 feet by 7.2 feet.

Then the total area is:

A = (23 ft)*(10.4 ft) + (10.5ft)*(7.2 ft)

The number of gallons needed is given by the quotient between the area that we want to cover, and the area that covers one gallon, so the expression is:

$N = \frac{(23ft)*(10.4ft) + (10.5ft)*(7.2ft)}{200ft^2} \\\\N = \frac{(23)*(10.4) + (10.5)*(7.2)}{200}$

So the corerect option is the second one.

8. Find all the real fourth roots of 256

mezya [45]

X^4=256
x^4-256=0
(x^2)^2-(16)^2=0
(x^2+16)(x^2-16)=0
either x^2+16=0
it gives complex roots.
or x^2-16=0
or x^2-4^2=0
(x+4)(x-4)=0
either x+4=0,x=-4
or x-4=0
x=4
