There are 2 repeating decimals, so you will need a 1 followed by 2 zeros which is 100. You'll use 100 soon to multiply an equation.

Let's call the decimal number x.

Write   

        x =     0.212121...

Then multiply the equation above by 100, and write it above that equation.
You end up with

    100x = 21.212121...
          x =   0.212121...

Now set it up as a subtraction, and subtract the second equation from the first equation:

    100x = 21.212121...
          x =   0.212121...
- ----------------------------
      99x = 21

Now solve for x. Divide both sides by 3:

33x = 7

Divide both sides by 33:

x = 7/33

Since x = 0.212121..., an d x = 7/33, that means 0.212121... must equal 7/33.

Answer: the fraction is 7/33

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice they both have the same slope of 3x so they are parallel, but different y intercepts. This means the lines never intersect and thus there are no solutions to the system of equations.

PLEASE HELP!!!
erastovalidia [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

to write a line equation we need minimum of two points. basicaly a line is written in the form y=mx+c where, m is the slope of the line and c is the intercept made by the line on x-axis (OR) or if two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are given then we can form a line equation as (y-y1)= (y2-y1)*1/(x2-x1) *x-x1 (OR) (y-y2)= (y2-y1)*1/(x2-x1) *x-x2

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to line 6x + 3y = 15
NISA [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is 6x+3y=15

Slope of the given line (m)=-x/y

=-6/3

=-2

let slope of the line perpendicular to the given line be m'.

Condition of perpendicularity,

m×m'=-1

-2×m'=-1

m'=-1/-2

m'=1/2
