Yes, it will always be a rational number. I'll expound on this by defining what a rational number is. It is any number that can be expressed as a fraction. Otherwise, it is called an irrational number with a non-terminating decimal expansion. So, although 1/3 has a non-terminating decimal expansion because it is equal to 0.33333333...., it is still a rational number because it can be expressed into a fraction.
First we must divide 9 by 3.
9/3 = 3
Then multiply it by 8
3*8 = 24. Hope this helps!
Answer:
17 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A bag of lawn fertilizer covers 289 square feet
Dimensions of the largest square plot of lawn that the bag of fertilizer will cover.
Area of a square lawn = length^2
Area of the square lawn = 289 square feet
Area of a square lawn = length^2
289 = length^2
Find the square root of both sides
√289 = √length^2
17 = length
Length = 17 feet
Dimensions of the largest square plot of lawn that the bag of fertilizer will cover = 17 feet by 17 feet
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The centipede that Maria measured was 1 1/12 inches long. If you convert this to an improper fraction it is equal to 13/12 inches. Now to find how much longer Maria's centipede was than Jeromes, you just take 11/12 and minus it from 13/12 which is equal to 2/12 of an inch, which then simplifies to 1/6 of an inch.
The answer is D. Because the sq. rt. of 1 is 1, the sq. rt. of 9 is 3, and the sq. rt. of 25 is 5. When you take the sq. rt. of 50 you get 7.071067.
