You are given a fraction in simplest form. The possible denominators are 3, 6, 7, 9

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, You are given a fraction in simplest form.

The numerator is not zero. When you write the fraction as a decimal, it is a repeating decimal.

We have to find which numbers from 1 to 10 could be the denominator

Now, let us check each number by considering the numerator as 1

Then,  

1 \rightarrow \frac{1}{1}=1 ⇒ non repeating

2 \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}=0.5 ⇒ non repeating

3 \rightarrow \frac{1}{3}=0.333333333333 ⇒ repeating

4 \rightarrow \frac{1}{4}=0.25 ⇒ non repeating

5 \rightarrow \frac{1}{5}=0.2 ⇒ non repeating

6 \rightarrow \frac{1}{6}=0.1666666666666 ⇒ repeating

7 \rightarrow \frac{1}{7}=0.1428571428571 ⇒ repeating

8 \rightarrow \frac{1}{8}=0.125 ⇒ non repeating

9 \rightarrow \frac{1}{9}=0.11111111111111 ⇒ repeating

10 \rightarrow \frac{1}{10}=0.1 ⇒ non repeating

If we want to test with any other numerator. Suppose 5, then numerator is 5 x 1, which means 5 divided by denominator equals with 5 x 1 divided by denominator. So its again product of the numerator we want and above values, then, non repeating stays non repeating and repeating stays repeating.

Hence, the possible denominators are 3, 6, 7, 9

Naoya read a book cover to cover in a single session, at a rate of 555555 pages per hour. After 444 hours, he had 350350350 page
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

y=-55x+570

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Naoya read a book cover to cover in a single session, at a rate of 55 pages per hour. After 4 hours, he had 350 pages left to read.

Let y represent the number of pages left to read after x hours.

Complete the equation for the relationship between the number of pages left and number of hours.

Let

x -----> the time in hours

y ----> the number of pages left to read

we know that

The linear equation in point-slope  form is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

In this problem we have

m=-55\frac{pages}{hour}  ----> is negative because the linear function is decreasing

point\ (4,350)

substitute

y-350=-55(x-4)

y-350=-55x+220

y=-55x+220+350

y=-55x+570
