Answer: 2 and 5/6

Explanation: To subtract mixed numbers, first subtract the fractions.

Notice here however that we have 2/6 - 3/6 which will gives us a negative fraction. Since this will cause us a lot of trouble, instead, let's rewrite the the first mixed number.

We can do this by thinking of 10 and 2/6 as 9 + 1 and 2/6 or as 9 + 8/6 by changing 1 and 1/6 into an improper fraction.

So 10 and 2/6 can be written as 9 and 8/6.

So we have 9 and 8/6 - 7 and 3/6.

Now subtract the fractions.

So we have 8/6 - 3/6 which is 5/6.

Then subtract the whole numbers. 9 - 7 is 2

2 and 5/6 is in lowest terms so 10 and 2/6 - 7 and 3/6 is 2 and 5/6.

a_sh-v [17]
The product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.
Therefore C is the answer.
A, B, and D are all properties of rational numbers. Irrational numbers are ones that can not be written as a ratio, or fraction, using whole numbers. They are non-repeating, non-terminating numbers. Example would be pi.

Harper deposited $110 into a savings account that earns 3.5% interest a year. The function (R)t models the amount of money Raymo
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

  A.  $2.26

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation for Harper's balance can be written similar to the one written for Raymond's balance. It will be ...

  H(t) = 110(1.035)^t

For t = 2, the two balances will be ...

  H(2) = 110(1.035^2) = 117.83

  R(2) = 110(1.025^2) = 115.57

The difference is ...

  $117.83 -115.57 = $2.26

Harper's account will have $2.26 more.

_____

As a quick estimate or sanity check, you can see that Harper's interest rate is 1% more than Raymond's. So, in 2 years, he will earn a little more than 2% more on his investment than Raymond earns. 2% of $110 is $2.20, so the difference can be expected to be slightly more than this.
