No. Because a irrational number has a repeating pattern.

Answer :

No, Deena is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A real number is called rational number if it can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$

Where, p and q are integers,

Such that, q ≠ 0

Also, a number with repeating or recurring decimal is always a rational number,

Given number,

9.565565556......

By examining the number we found that,

The pattern of recurring is not proceed,

Hence, 9.565565556... has not a repeating pattern,

∴ 9.565565556... is not a rational number.

i.e. Deena is not correct.

Find the number b such that the line y = b divides the region bounded by the curves x = y^2 − 1 and the y-axis into 2 regions wi

77julia77 [94]

Because of the symmetry, we can just go from x=0 to x=2 to find the area between
y = x^2 and y = 4 

that area = ∫4-x^2 dx from 0 to 2 
= [4x - (1/3)x^3] from 0 to 2 
= 8 - 8/3 - 0 
= 16/3 

so when y = b 
x= √b 
and we have the area as 
∫(b - x^2) dx from 0 to √b 
= [b x - (1/3)x^3] from 0 to √b 
= b√b - (1/3)b√b - 0 

(2/3)b√b = 8/3 
b√b =4 
square both sides 
b^3 = 16 
b = 16^(1/3) = 2 cuberoot(2)

How do you solve (Arc)QPT if <QZT = 120

yuradex [85]

By definition, the arc length is given by:
arc = R * theta * ((2 * pi) / 360)
Where,
theta: angle in degrees
R: radio
We have then:
(Arc) QPT if <QZT = 120:
theta = 360-120 = 240 degrees
R = 13.5 units
Substituting values we have:
(Arc) QPT = R * theta * ((2 * pi) / 360)
(Arc) QPT = (13.5) * (240) * ((2 * pi) / 360)
(Arc) QPT = 56.55 units
Answer:
(Arc) QPT = 56.55 units

I don’t understand someone help me 4-16=2+5 (s+14)

mel-nik [20]

Answer: s= - 8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify 4-164−16 to -12−12.

-12=2+5(s+14)

−12=2+5(s+14)

2 Subtract 22 from both sides.

-12-2=5(s+14)

−12−2=5(s+14)

3 Simplify -12-2−12−2 to -14−14.

-14=5(s+14)

−14=5(s+14)
