So here, I would first multiply 0.17777.... (Assume that that's x) by 10, then you get

10x = 1.777777...

And then subtract x from 10x and then you get 1.6.

So that means that 

10x - x = 9x

and 1.7777... - 0.17777... = 1.6

So now to solve for x, divide both sides by 9

To get 1.6/9 = x

Or 16/90 = x

Or 8/45 = x

(That explanation made no sense)

Answer:

\frac{8}{45}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

0.1\bar 7

We have to find the value in fraction of given rational number

Let x=0.1\bar 7

Multiply on both side by 10 then we get

10 x=1.77...

10x=1.6+0.1\bar 7

Substitute the value then we get

10x=1.6+x

10x-x=1.6

9x=1.6

x=\frac{1.6}{9}

x=\frac{16}{90}

x=\frac{8}{45}

Hence, the fraction =\frac{8}{45}

Estimate the perimeter of the figure to the nearest whole number.
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

<u>The perimeter of the pentagon ≅ 19 units (approximately)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Clockwise, starting from the base of the pentagon, we have:

  • Base of the pentagon or bottom side ≅ 4 units
  • 2nd side ≅ 3.75 units
  • 3rd side ≅ 3.75 units
  • 4th side ≅ 3.75 units
  • 5th side ≅ 3.75 units

In consequence,

Perimeter of the pentagon ≅ 4 + 3.75 + 3.75 + 3.75 + 3.75

<u>Perimeter of the pentagon ≅ 19 units</u>

NeTakaya

Answer:

the constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k.
