Find the rational number whose decimal expansion is 0.3344444

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: The fraction 301/900
Note: I'm assuming the 4's continue on forever

==============================================

Work Shown:

I'm going to assume that the 4s go on forever. I'll represent this with three dots after the last 4 like so
0.334444...

Now let x = 0.334444...

Multiply both sides by 100
x = 0.334444...
100x = 100*(0.334444...)
100x = 33.444444...

And repeat with 1000
x = 0.334444...
1000x = 1000*(0.334444...)
1000x = 334.444444...

Then subtract and solve for x. Notice how the decimal parts line up and cancel
1000x-100x = (334.444444...) - (33.444444...)
1000x-100x = (334+0.444444...) - (33+0.444444...)
1000x-100x = 334+0.444444... - 33 - 0.444444...
1000x-100x = (334-33)+(0.444444... - 0.444444...)
900x = 334 - 33
900x = 301
x = 301/900

Answer:

<u>44 </u>students will ride on each bus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mr. Shipley is in charge of a school trip.

317 students will go on the trip.

The school had seven buses and one van.

If the van can haul nine students.

Now, to find the number of students who will ride on each bus.

Total students who will go on trip = 317.

So, we deduct the nine students of van from total students.

$317-9=308.$

Thus, there are 308 students remaining for riding on the seven buses.

Now, to get the number of students that will be riding on each bus we divide 308 remaining students by number of buses:

$308\div 7$

$=44.$

Therefore, 44 students will ride on each bus.

(4y − 3)(2y2 + 3y − 5)

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

8y^3+6y^2-29y+15

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct expression is

(4y − 3)(2y^2 + 3y − 5)

Given data

We have the expression

(4y − 3)(2y^2 + 3y − 5)

let us open bracket

8y^3+12y^2-20y-6y^2-9y+15

Collect like terms

8y^3+12y^2-6y^2-20y-9y+15

8y^3+6y^2-29y+15

joe has a cylindrical glass jar that he wants to fill completly with apple juice. This jar has a diameter of 4 inches and a heig

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

V = πr²h

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is ...

V = πr²h

where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height of the cylinder.

_____

<em>Comment on the formula</em>

This is a specific version of the formula for any sort of "prism" with parallel bases and a uniform cross section (parallel to the bases). The volume of such a figure is computed as ...

V = Bh

where B is the area of the base and h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel bases. Here, the base is a circle, so has area formula ...

B = πr²

Filling this into the volume formula gives ...

V = πr²h . . . . . as above
