Convert the decimal expansion 0.1777 into a rational number

Helen [10]

Answer:

The rational form of the given number 0.1777 = $\frac{1777}{10,000}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The rational number is expressed as a number on the form of $(\frac{p}{q} ) , q \neq 0$

Now,here the given number in decimal form = 0.1777

To remove the decimal, firstly count the number of digits AFTER DECIMAL.

Here, number of digits after decimal = 4

SO, the decimal can be removed and replaced by 1 , by dividing with 1,0000.

$\implies 0.1777 = \frac{01,777} {10,000} = \frac{1777}{10,000}$

Hence, the rational form of the given number 0.1777 = $\frac{1777}{10,000}$

solve the following system of equations.express your answer as an ordered pair in the format (a,b) with no spaces the number or

NeTakaya

Answer:

The solution is (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll solve the system

2x+5y=16

-5x-2y=2

using elimination by addition and subtraction.

Let's eliminate x first. To do this, multiply the first equation by 5 and multiply the second equation by 2. We get:

10x + 25y = 80

-10x - 4y = 4

----------------------

21y = 84. Thus, y = 84/21 = 4.

Subbing 4 for y in the second equation, we get

-5x -2(4) = 2, or

-8 - 2 = 5x, or

-10 = 5x. Thus, x = -10/5 = -2.

The solution is (-2,4)

Given the following formula, solve for a.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

A. a = 2s - b -c

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation in a way that you have only a on one side. When solving equations you can add, subtract, multiply or divide by the same number/variable/expression on the both sides.

$s = \frac{a + b + c}{2}$

Multiply by 2 to get rid of the fraction.

$s \cdot 2 = \frac{a + b + c}{2} \cdot 2$

On the right side the 2 cancels out:

$s \cdot 2 = a + b + c$

On the right side next to a are still b and c. But we want a alone. Subtract b.

$s \cdot 2 - b = a + b + c - b$

b - b on right side gives 0.

$s \cdot 2 - b = a + c + 0$

The step above is usually skipped, because number + 0 = number.

$s \cdot 2 - b = a + c$

Next to a there is still c. Subtract c.

$s \cdot 2 - b - c = a + c - c$

c - c on the left is 0.

$s \cdot 2 - b - c = a$

So our answer is:

$s \cdot 2 - b - c = a$

It can be rewritten to (change sides):

$a = s \cdot 2 - b - c$

And s · 2 can be rewritten to 2s:

$a = 2s - b - c$
