Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a fraction of the form.

$\frac{a}{b} \: where \: b \ne0$

and a and b are integers.

$9.99 = \frac{999}{100}$

Hence in this case a=999 and b=100.

Since both are integers with b being a non-zero integer, we conclude that 9.99 is a rational number.

ANSWER

$x = 50.5 \degree$

EXPLANATION

We use the sine rule for solving triangles.

This is given by the formula,

$\frac{ \sin(A) }{a} = \frac{ \sin(B) }{b} = \frac{ \sin(C) }{c}$

From the triangle,

$\frac{ \sin(x) }{60} = \frac{ \sin(40) }{50}$

We multiply both sides of the equation by 60 to get,

$sin(x) = \frac{ 60\sin(40 \degree) }{50}$

$sin(x) = 0.7713$

We solve for x to obtain,

$x = arcsin(0.7713)$

$x = 50.475$

To the nearest tenth, we round to one decimal place to get,

$x = 50.5 \degree$

Answer:

$\text{D. }b^2-4ac>0$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation $b^2-4ac$ represents the discriminant of a quadratic. It is the part taken from under the radical in the quadratic formula.

For any quadratic:

If the discriminant is positive, or greater than 0, the quadratic has two solutions

If the discriminant is equal to 0, the quadratic has one distinct real solution (the solution is repeated).

If the discriminant is negative, or less than 0, the quadratic has zero solutions

In the graph, we see that the equation intersects the x-axis at two distinct points. Therefore, the quadratic has two solutions and the discriminant must be positive. Thus, we have $b^2-4ac>0$ .
