Answer:

You can determine this by putting the rational numbers in decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number like 1/2 will have a terminating decimal answer = 0.5

A rational number like 7/11 will have a terminating decimal answer = 0.636 where 36 is repeating.

How do i solve this? 7 < 3 - 2x It's linear inequalities

Natasha2012 [34]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x < -2

Discussion:

7 < 3 - 2x => Add 2x to both sides

7 + 2x < 3 - (2x - 2x) => As 2x -2x = 0

7 + 2x < 3 => Subtract 7 from both sides

(7-7) + 2x < 3 - 7 => As 7-7 = 0 and 3-7 = -4

2x < -4 => Divide both sides by 2

x < -4./2 = -2

Thank you,

Find ten rational numbers between -1 by 5 and 1 by 2

uysha [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First both the rational numbers should have same denominators. So, find least common denominator

Least common denominator is 10

$\frac{-1}{5}=\frac{-1*2}{5*2}=\frac{-2}{10}\\\\\\\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*5}{2*5}=\frac{5}{10}\\\\\\$

Now multiply the numerator and denominators of the both the numbers by 10.

$\frac{-2*10}{10*10}= \frac{-20}{100} \ and \ \frac{5*10}{10*10}=\frac{50}{100}\\\\\\Now\ 10 \ rational \ numbers \ between\frac{-20}{10} \ and \ \frac{50}{100} \ is \\\\\\\frac{-19}{100},\frac{-18}{100},\frac{-17}{100},\frac{-16}{100}.\frac{-15}{100},\frac{-14}{100},\frac{-13}{100},\frac{-12}{100},\frac{-11}{100};\frac{-10}{100}$

(b) Write 3*3*3*3* 3 as a single power of 3

algol13

Answer:

3⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

3×3×3×3×3=3⁵

You have a mutiplication. The base is 3, the exponent is the count of how many 3 you have. In this multiplication 3 appears 5 times, so 3⁵.
