A rational number is an algebraic term expressed as a fraction. The fraction can also be in decimals but only if the decimal places are not repeating or not infinitely long. If they aren't, then these are called irrational numbers.

Let's try each of the choices:

A. The term 2/4 is a rational number. Now, when 0.3 or 3/10 is added to it, the sum would be 4/5 or 0.8. This is a rational number.

B. √7 is an irrational number because its exact value is 2.645751311.... Even if you add 0.3 to it, the answer would still be irrational

C. Obviously, this is an irrational number

D. The exact value of π is <span>3.14159...... If 0.3 is added to it, the answer would be 3.441592654. This is irrational.

Therefore, the answer is A.</span>

A number is selected from the set (1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, 29, 38, 500). If equal elemental probabilities are assigned, what is

Katen [24]

Answer:

$\frac{7}{9}$ OR 77.78%

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we first need to find out how many numbers fit the "less than 29 or odd" group.

This would be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, and 29, which is a total of 7 numbers.

Next, we figure out the total amount of numbers in the population.

This would be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 15, 21, 29, 38, and 500, which is a total of 9 numbers.

Finally, we put the first number (7) over the total (9) = $\frac{7}{9}$

$\frac{7}{9}$ is now able to be written in a percentage, if you need.

The probability is $\frac{7}{9}$ OR 77.78%

$gpm = 29.7 \times {d}^{2} \times \sqrt{np}$
this formula is used to determine gpm (gallons per minute) of flow with a known hose diameter (d) and nozzle pressure (np). The constant (29.7) is consistent when figuring flow with in gallons with a know pressure expressed in psi (pounds per square inch).

Scenario example: a firefighter is using a handline to fight fire with an 1 3/4 inch line with a nozzle pressure of 100 psi. How much water is the firefighter flowing when fighting fire?

$gpm = 29.7 \times {1.75}^{2} \times \sqrt{100}$

Given:
2002 sold 1000 paperback books and 1500 hardback books for a total of 2,500 books.

2003 sold 15% more paperback books and 5% more hardback books.
1000 x 1.15 = 1,150 paperbacks
1500 x 1.05 = 1,575 hardbacks

1150 + 1575 = 2,725

2,725 - 2,500 = 225
225 / 2,500 = 0.09
0.09 x 100% = 9% choice C
