The decimal representation of 1/11 is 0.090909...
The pair of digits '09' repeat forever.
If you start counting the digits after the decimal point,
the odd ones are all zero, and the even ones are all 9 .
So the 44th digit after the decimal point is 9 .
Answer: 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets name the missing point as "x"
8^2 + x^2 = 17^2
=> 64 + x^2 = 289
=> x^2 = 289 - 64
=> x^2 = 225
=> x = 15
First square both sides to get:
c + 22 = (c + 2)^2
or
c + 22 = c^2 + 4c + 4
Move the terms on the left side to the right side:
c^2 + 3c - 18 = 0
Factor to get:
(c + 6) * (c - 3) = 0.
The solutions are c = -6 and c = 3.
Check to see if these answers work by plugging them into the original equation:
c = -6:
sqrt (-6 + 22) ?= -6 + 2
But, -6 + 2 is a negative number, and you can't get a negative from a square root. So, -6 is extraneous.
c = 3:
sqrt (3 + 22) ?= 3 + 2
5 = 5. So, 3 works.
The answer is: B
