Is it possible for a number to be a rational number that is not an interger but is a whole number. Explain

Mathematics

mylen [45]3 years ago

Whole numbers are a subset of integers, which in turn are a subset of rational numbers.

So, every whole number is an integer, and every integer is a rational number.

So, it is possible for a rational number not to be an integer. Think of any decimal number: 1.356 is a rational number, but it's not an integer.

On the other hand, if a number is not an integer, it can't be a whole number, because all whole numbers are integers.

Comparing Relationships with Tables1. Decide whether each table could represent a proportional relationship.If the relationship
yan [13]

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y=kx

where

k is the constant of proportionality

Verify each table

table a

Let

x ----> distance

y ----> sound level

For each ordered pair calculate the value of k

k=y/x

so

(5,85) -----> k=85/5=17

(10,79) ----> k=79/10=7.9

the values of k are differents

that means

the table nor represent a proportional relationship

table b

let

x ----> volume

y ----> cost

k=y/x

(16,1.49) ----> k=1.49/16=0.093125

(20,1.59) ----> k=1.59/20=0.0795

the values of k are differents

that means

the table nor represent a proportional relationship

Triphasil-28 birth control tablets are taken sequentially, 1 tablet per day for 28 days, with the tablets containing the followi
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

1.925mg of levonorgestrel and 0.68mg of ethinyl estradiol are taken during the 28-day period.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total milligrams of levonorgestrel is:

L = L_{1} + L_{2} + L_{3}

In which L_{1}, L_{2} and L_{3} are the number of miligrams of levonorgestrel taken in each phase.

The total milligrams of ethinyl estradiol is:

E = E_{1} + E_{2} + E_{3}

In which E_{1},E_{2} and E_{3} are the number of miligrams of ethinyl estradiol taken in each phase.

We can solve this by phase.

Phase 1: 6 tablets, each containing 0.050 mg of levonorgestrel and 0.030 mg ethinyl estradiol

In this phase,

6*0.050mg = 0.30mg of levonorgestrel and 6*0.030mg = 0.18mg of ethinyl estradiol are taken.

So L_{1} = 0.30 and E_{1} = 0.18

Phase 2: 5 tablets, each containing 0.075 mg of levonorgestrel and 0.040 mg ethinyl estradiol

In this phase,

5*0.075mg = 0.375mg of levonorgestrel and 5*0.040mg = 0.20mg of ethinyl estradiol are taken.

So L_{2} = 0.375 and E_{2} = 0.20

Phase 3: 10 tablets, each containing 0.125 mg of levonorgestrel and 0.030 mg ethinyl estradiol

In this phase,

10*0.125mg = 1.25mg of levonorgestrel and 10*0.030mg = 0.30mg of ethinyl estradiol are taken.

So L_{3} = 1.25 and E_{3} = 0.30

The total milligrams of levonorgestrel is:

L = L_{1} + L_{2} + L_{3} = 0.30 + 0.375 + 1.25 = 1.925

The total milligrams of ethinyl estradiol is:

E = E_{1} + E_{2} + E_{3} = 0.18 + 0.20 + 0.30 = 0.68

1.925mg of levonorgestrel and 0.68mg of ethinyl estradiol are taken during the 28-day period.

A circle has a diameter of 26 units. What is the area of the circle to the nearest hundred of a square unit?
Nady [450]

Answer: The area is 530 square units

Step-by-step explanation: The diameter of the circle has been given as 26. That makes the radius 13, that is;

Radius = diameter/2

Radius = 26/2

Radius = 13

The area of a circle is derived by the formula;

Area = pi x r^2

Where pi is 3.14 and r is 13,

Area = (3.14) x 13^2

Area = 3.14 x 169

Area = 530.66

Approximately to the nearest hundred of a square unit,

The area of the circle is 530 square units
