Irrational would be the right answer!

A whole number is a counting number. 2 5 29 44 18 are all counting numbers. They have no decimals trailing after them. C is not the answer.

An imaginary number is one like 18i where i is the square root of - 1. Nothing in our number system will give the square root of - 1 so we have to define that condition into our number system. i * i = - 1. So by definition and definition alone i is the square root of - 1. Those are called imaginary numbers because they are defined.

A rational number can be expressed as a fraction. It does not matter what kind of fraction. It is just a fraction. 3 1/3 = 10/3 That's a rational number. 14/7 is also rational.

sqrt(3) is irrational. It has an endless line of decimal places that have no pattern. 1/7 = 0.142857 ... repeating. But it is rational even though the decimal goes on forever. If I tell you the 70th place is a 5, I can tell you that the next digit will by a 7 [The 5 may not be true].

No such statement can be made about sqrt(3).

Answer: irrational.

WILL MARK BRILLIANT!!! I need help ASAP

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Charging by the quarter mile is for purpose of making that particular taxi service seem cheaper than the others when they post a per mile charge. If this taxi company is charging .50 per 1/4 mile, they are charging $2 per mile. So we will base our equation on the per mile charge, not the per quarter-mile charge. If x is the number of mile driven (our uknown), and we have a flat fee of $2.50 regardless of how many miles we are driven, the cost function in terms of miles is

C(x) = 2x + 2.50

If we are driven 5 miles, then

C(5) = 2(5) + 2.50 so

C(5) = 10 + 2.50 and

C(5) = $12.50

It would cost $12.50 to be driven 5 miles

According to the last census (2010), the mean number of people per household in the United States is LaTeX: \mu = 2.58 Assume a

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.046

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Population Mean, $\mu$ = 2.58 and Standard deviation, $\sigma$ = 0.75

Also, a random sample (n) of 110 households is taken.

Let Xbar = sample mean household size

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is give by;

Z = $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

So, probability that the sample mean household size is between 2.50 and 2.66 people = P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66)

P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = P(Xbar < 2.66) - P(Xbar $\leq$ 2.50)

P(Xbar < 2.66) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\frac{2.66-2.78}{\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{110} } }$ ) = P(Z < -1.68) = 1 - P(Z 1.68)

= 1 - 0.95352 = 0.04648

P(Xbar $\leq$ 2.50) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ $\leq$ $\frac{2.50-2.78}{\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{110} } }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -3.92) = 1 - P(Z < 3.92)

= 1 - 0.99996 = 0.00004

Therefore, P(2.50 < Xbar < 2.66) = 0.04648 - 0.00004 = 0.046
