A decimal is considered as

dalvyx [7]

<h3>Answer: B) real number</h3>

Explanation:

Something like 3.5 = 7/2 is a rational number because its a fraction of two integers.

While on the other hand, the constant pi = 3.14159... is irrational because we cannot write pi as a fraction of two integers. We can get approximations like 22/7, but not a perfect exact match.

Both types of numbers, rational and irrational, are under the umbrella of the real number system. Any real number is a string of decimal digits. Sometimes it might be a whole number, but fractional values can be included as well. The decimal number may terminate, or it may repeat, or it may go on forever without a pattern.

In short, any number you can think of is a real number assuming your teacher hasn't covered complex numbers (or imaginary numbers) just yet.

the variables x and y vary inversely with a constant variation of 7. Use the variation formula, k=xy, to find why when x=9

dolphi86 [110]

1.Make y the subject

k = xy

k/x = xy/x

y = k/x

2.Substitute

y = k/x

y = 7/9

y = 0.777......

y = 0.8 (Answer)

To confirm

k = xy

k = 9 × 0.8

k = 7.2

k = 7 (constant)

Hope it helps☺

total bill before any discounts $13.

she is a student, so she gets 20% off.

she brought an item of clothing, so she gets 5% off.

so she's really getting 20% + 5% off, namely 25% off her bill.

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{25\% of 13}}{\left( \cfrac{25}{100} \right)13\implies 3.25}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{bill with all discounts}}{13-3.25\implies 9.75}$
