An irrational number is a number which cannot be expressed in a ratio of two integers. In rational numbers, both numerator and denominator are whole numbers, where the denominator is not equal to zero. While an irrational number cannot be written in a fraction.

What is greater 16/25 or 65%

slega [8]

Hi there!

»»————-　★　————-««

I believe your answer is:

65% has the greater value.

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

We can convert both numbers into decimals and then compare the values.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Comparing Numbers:}}\\\\-------------\\\rightarrow\frac{16}{25}= 0.64\\\\\rightarrow 65\%=\frac{65}{100}=0.65\\ -------------\\\\\boxed{0.65 > 0.64}\\\\\text{Therefore:}\\\\\boxed{65\% > \frac{16}{25}}$

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

Solve for 3(2x-1)+7=6x-3-2(-4x)

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

x = 1.14

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x - 1) + 7 = 6x - 3 - 2(-4x) [Given Equation]

6x - 3 + 7 = 6x - 3 + 8x [Distributive Property]

6x + 4 = 14x - 3 [Combine like-terms]

-8x + 4 = -3 [Subtraction Property of Equality]

-8x = -7 [Subtraction PoE]

x = 1.14 [Division PoE]

Please answer! I’m desperate lol

8_murik_8 [283]

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The bus rental would be the total cost or "C". So 700=250+3m.

B) Solve with properties of equality:

700 - 250 = 250 + 3m - 250

450 = 3m

450/3 = 3m/3

150 = m

150 miles

C) Check your answer by plugging the answer into the original equation:

C = 250 + 3(150)

C = 250 + 450

C = 700

Help pls thx guys photo attached

Answer:

x = 18

A = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles A and B are supplementary angles so they add to 180 degrees

A + B = 180

5x+20 + 9x -92 = 180

Combine like terms

14x -72 = 180

Add 72 to each side

14x-72+72 = 180+72

14x = 252

Divide each side by 14

14x/14 = 252/14

x =18

A = 5x+20

= 5*18 +20

=90 +20

= 110
