Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
0.888...
This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)
Convert to fraction number
Let
x=0.888...
10x=8.888...
Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal
10x-x=8.888...-0.888...
9x=8
Solve for x
x=8/9
therefore
Mike fraction is incorrect
because 4/5=0.8
0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)
Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal
Beth is correct
because
If you divide 8/9
the result is 0.8888888...
3/12x5 is the answer of your question.

Why learn this:
- Linear equations cannot tell you the future, but they can give you a good idea of what to expect so you can plan ahead. How long will it take you to fill your swimming pool? How much money will you earn during summer break? What are the quantities you need for your favorite recipe to make enough for all your friends?
- Linear equations explain some of the relationships between what we know and what we want to know and can help us solve a wide range of problems we might encounter in our everyday lives.
---------------------
Terms and topics
- Linear equations with one unknown
The main application of linear equations is solving problems in which an unknown variable, usually (but not always) x, is dependent on a known constant.
We solve linear equations by isolating the unknown variable on one side of the equation and simplifying the rest of the equation. When simplifying, anything that is done to one side of the equation must also be done to the other.
An equation of:

in which
and
are the constants and
is the unknown variable, is a typical linear equation with one unknown. To solve for
in this example, we would first isolate it by subtracting
from both sides of the equation. We would then divide both sides of the equation by
resulting in an answer of:

So, she has 550 dollars saved. If the junior season pass costs 315, you subtract that from 550. You should then have 235 dollars. Next, you divide 235 by 45 dollars per lesson, and you should get 5.22. You can't buy half a lesson, so she only has enough for 5 lessons.
Answer:
The rate of plane in still air is 834 km/hr and the rate of wind is 80 km/hr.
Step-by-step explanation:
The airplane travels 6032 km in 8 hours against the wind.
So,
........ (1) {Where u is the speed of plane in still air and v is the wind speed}
Again, the airplane travels 7312 km in 8 hours with the wind.
So,
........ (2)
Now, adding equations (1) and (2) we get,
2u = 1668
⇒ u = 834 km per hour.
So, from equation (1), we get
v = u - 754 = 834 - 754 = 80 km per hour.
Therefore, the rate of the plane in still air is 834 km/hr and the rate of wind is 80 km/hr. (Answer)
