Which of the following fractions can be represented by a terminating decimal? A.8/5 B.8/3 C.1/11 D.4/9
2 answers:
Answer:
Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a fraction p/q is in the simplified form, then it can be represented by terminating or non-terminating decimal.
If the denominator is 2, 5 or multiple of either 2 or 5, or both, then the fraction can represented by terminating decimal. Otherwise, the fraction can represented by non-terminating decimal.
Only in option A, the denominator is 5. So, only 8/5 an be represented by a terminating decimal.
Only 8/5 is terminating.
Therefore, the correct option is A.

The function is stretched vertically by a factor of 3.
The function shifts 2 to the right.
The function is moved 5 units up.
Explanation:
The parent function of the graph is
The transformation for the parent function is given by
Thus, the transformed function is in the form of
where a is the vertical compression/stretch,
h moves graph to left or right and
k moves the graph up or down.
Thus, from the transformed function , we have,
The attached graph below shows the transformation of the graph that the graph is stretched vertically by a factor of 3 and shifted 2 units to the right and moved 5 units up.
Hence, The function is stretched vertically by a factor of 3.
The function shifts 2 to the right.
The function is moved 5 units up.
