Answer:

<u>The mistake Sam made was to don't write down the dot or the comma after 6. The result of the long division is - 6.3, not -63.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's consider by ourselves the long division problem to understand better what was Sam's mistake.

- 0.2709 ÷ 0.043 = - 6.3

270 ÷ 43 = 6 and 12 as remainder

129 ÷ 43 = 3 and no remainder left

<u>The mistake Sam made was to don't write down the dot or the comma after 6. The result of the long division is - 6.3, not -63.</u>

If we multiply -0.2709 * 10⁴ = -2,709 and if we do the same with 0.043 * 10⁴ = 430. Now let's divide -2,709 ÷ 430 = -6.3, the result should be the same, but like Sam made the mistake it isn't.

What is the rational number equivalent to 3.24​
aev [14]

Answer:

The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:

n=3.24242424...

10n=32.4242424....

100n=324.2424242...

Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:

100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321

99n  = 321

n = 321/99

One fifth as a percentage
Sidana [21]
When dealing with percentages it is often much easier to convert it to a decimal (mostly because a lot of people are uncomfortable working with fractions) but in this case, I suggest dividing 1 into 5 [hint hint fractions are just glorified division in the long run] and after you have done that multiply by 100. This will get you your answer.

Let f(x) = x + 8 and g(x) = x2 − 6x − 7. Find f(g(2)).
just olya [345]
Mathematical Work:
f(x)=x+8
g(x)=x2-6x-7
f(g(2))=(2^2-6(2)-7)+8
f(g(2))=(4-12-7)+8
f(g(2))=-7
Explanation:
f(x)=x+8
g(x)=x2-6x-7
f(g(2))=?
2 was given as the x for function g and when you substitute 2 into function g's equation(g(2)=(2^2-6(2)-7)=-15, you would get -15. The answer to function g would be the x for function f. Which would be f(-15)=-15+8 and the answer for f(g(2)) is -7.

Find the value of x in the given right triangle
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

angle x = ?

Opposite side = 7

Adjacent side = 10

Process

To answer this question use trigonometric functions. The trigonometric function that relates the Opposite side and the adjacent side is the tangent.

             Tan x = Opposite side / Adjacent side

- Substitution

             Tan x = 7 / 10

- Simplification

              Tan x = 0.7

- Result

               Tan⁻¹ x = x = 34.99 or x ≈ 35°
