for any fraction a/b, the decimal format of it is just a ÷ b.
A)
is the number rational?
well, a rational number is one we can write as a ration or fraction, well clearly is a fraction so it is rational.
B)
can it be written as a repeating/recurring decimal? well, 9/20 is 0.45, so -9/20 is -0.45, no repeating decimal like 0.454545......... , just a plain vanilla -0.45, so nope.
C)
is it less than -0.4?
well, let's recall that for the negative side on the number line, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so then -1,000,000 is much smaller than -1, because -1 is closer to 0.
who is closer -0.4 or -0.45?
|--------------------- -0.45 -------- -0.40 ------------------- 0 --------------- 1 -------------------|
so, -0.45 is farther from 0, and therefore is smaller than -0.4, so yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
A coefficent is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression. Or in other words, the number being multiplied with the variable. For example, the 4 in 4x.
The expression is -3x + 1. If we go back to the definition, the coefficient is the number combined with the variable.
So the answer is -3.
Hope it helps!
Answer:(X^2-5)(x^2+5)(x^4+25)
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 10 pairs of shoes.
The first ratio is 10:5. 10 socks per 5 pairs of shoes. You have 20 socks now instead of 10. You just double the ratio. 20 socks per 10 pairs of shoes. 20:10.
