Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

rational numbers can be written in form a/b where b≠0

5.2 and 5.5

52/10 and 55/10

so some rational numbers could be

53/10, 54/10

irrational numbers  most likely the square root numbers

square them

5.2^2=27.04

5.5^2=30.25

5.2<?<5.5

square everybody

27.04<?²<30.25

so pick a number between 27.04 and 30.25

29 or 30 are 2 numbers

I'll pick 29

?²= 29

square root

?=√29

the irrational number can be √29

it is 5.39 to the hundredth

Answer:

5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be written as the quotient of two integers.

5.2 and 5.5 are both rational since they can be written as quotients of integers as shown below.

5.2 = 52/10

5.5 = 55/10

5.3 is a number between 5.2 and 5.5, and since 5.3 can be written as 53/10, it is rational.

Answer: 5.3

Please help asap calculate the slope of the line through the points (6,-8) and (3,-4).
sammy [17]

Answer: y = -4/3x + 0. Yes, that point lies on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

Use this equation, Δy/Δx and this one, y = mx + b. Or, change in the y value divided by the change in the x value.

-4 + 8 = 4

3 - 6 = -3

The slope, m, is -4/3. Now solve for b by plugging in the slope.

-4 = \frac{-4}3 (3) + b. B is equal to 0

To see if that point lies on the function, plug it in the equation and see if it is true. Multiply -4 x -3 to get 12, divide by 3 to get 4, then add 0. The equation says that 4 = 4, which is infact true

Which inequality does this graph represent
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

y\leq -4x+25 is the correct representation of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, if we look at the y-intercept, we can see that it is 25.

This means that we have narrowed down the options to the first and the second.

Next, our graph has a solid line. This means that we must have a \leq sign.

This means that the inequality y\leq -4x+25 is the correct representation of the graph.
