A rational number can be represented in a ratio of a/b.
Therefore, 5.3 would be a rational number in between 5.2 and 5.5, as it can be represented as 53/10.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
It is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
4+5 = 9; 9+5=14 (adding is arithmetic, multiplying is geometric)
-3x+13=16
Move +13 to the other side. Sign changes from +13 to -13.
-3x+13-13=16-13
-3x=16-13
-3x=3
Divide by -3 for both sides.
-3/-3x=3/-3
Cross out -3 and -3, divide by -3, then becomes 1*1*x=x
x=-1
Answer: x=-1
