The number 0.8 can be written as 8 over 10, so it is an irrational number, true or false?!?!

For a number to be rational by definition, a fractional representation of the number must exist.
So N = n/m is rational if n and m are integers.
Since it's given in fractional form it's rational by definition.
Hence false.

It is false because the only way it would be true is if the decimal point had un-repeating numbers after is like 1.414124245... would be a great example.

How do I get 1/4 of $3.20

leva [86]

" of " means multiply

1/4 * 3.20/1...and just multiply....(1 * 3.20) / (4 * 1) = 3.20/4 = 0.8
or
1/4 = 0.25.....0.25(3.20) = 0.8

Aljan and Bella are both driving from Cleveland to Chicago. Aljan leaves at

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Bella will pass Ajjan after 4h and they will have travelled 260 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the number of hours, "x", that it'll take for Bella to pass Aljan, we need to find the value of "x" that makes both equations equal. Therefore,

$60*x + 20 = 65*x\\65*x - 60*x = 20\\5*x = 20\\x = \frac{20}{5} = 4$

In order to calculate the distance they traveled, we must use this value for "x" in any of the equations, as done below:

$y = 65*4\\y = 260$

Bella will pass Ajjan after 4h and they will have travelled 260 miles.
