Convert the decimal expansion 0.31717 to a fraction. A) 133/455 B) 157/495 C) 52/165 D) 99/166

1 answer:

6 0

The decimal expansion of 0.31717 is an infinite number with the 17 repeating.

Let the given decimal = X, so we have X = 0.31717 ( 1st equation)

Multiply both sides by 100 to get:
100x = 31.717 ( 2nd equation)

Subtract the 1st equation from the 2nd equation:

100x = 31.1717 - x = 0.31717 = 99x = 31.4

Divide both sides by 99:
X = 31.4 / 99

Multiply both numbers by 10 to remove the decimal point:
X = 314 / 990

Divide both numbers by 2 to get the final answer of 157 / 495

The answer is B.

Mashutka [201]

Step-by-step explanation:

8t³-80t²+200t

= 8(t³-10t+25)

= 8t(t²-10t+25)

= 8t(t-5)(t-5)

= 8t(t-5)²

the answer is B.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line defined by the equation y = 3x + 6 and goes through the point (3,

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is 3. The easy way to do this, the one that uses our logical brains as opposed to our mathematical brain, tells us that since there is only one choice that has a given slope of 3, that is the one that we want. The second choice down is the only one that has a slope of 3.

Mathematically,

$y-2=3(x-3)$ and

$y-2=3x=9$ and

$y=3x-9+2$ so

y = 3x - 7 (the second choice)
