22/7 = 3.142857...

Let's see if we can beat this using a fraction with 113 as its denominator.

-------

3 x 120 = 360

-------

So, let's try out x = 360:

360/113 = 3.185.... (Too high)

How about x=350:

350/113 = 3.097... (Too low)

Let's try out x = 355:

355/113 = 3.14159292 (Calculator value)

--------

Let's now compare 22/7 and 355/113 to pi:

22/7 = 3.142857...

355/113 = 3.14159292 (Calculator value)

π = 3.141592654

-------

As we can see, 355/113 provides us with a better approximation of π. This means that x=355.

densk [106]

Answer:2.19 monthd

Step-by-step explanation:

Cris borrowed money from her brother 6 months ago. She now owes him 56.50

Let x= original money borrowed from her brother 6 months ago

She has not borrowed and she is paying 15.75 on her debt each month for the last 6 months. This means in the past 6 months,she has paid 15.75×6= 94.5

She now owes him 56.50. This means original money,x-56.50 =94.5

x = 94.5+56.50=151

If she now increases her monthly payment to 25.75, let the number of months be y, she will pay 25.75y in y months

25.75y =56.50

y =2.19 months

Solve the simultaneous equations:<br><br> 3a-2b=14 <br> 12a+9b=39
kirill [66]
Use elimination
Multiply first equation by 4
12a - 8b = 56
12a + 9b = 39
Subtract both
-17b = 17
b = -1
Plug in -1 for b
3a - 2(-1) = 14
3a = 12, a = 4
Final answer: a = 4, b = -1
