Answer:

She has 36 inches ribbon and she needs 33 inches for 22 students so she have enough for her class.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 feet = 12 inches or 30.48 cm.

Ms. Leverenz has 3 foot piece of ribbon for an art project.

3 foot = 12 × 3 = 36 inches

she gives each student an eighth of a foot

That is 8/12 inches = 1.5 inches to each student.

Ms. Leverenz gives each student 1.5 inches of ribbon.

Therefore she needs for 22 students

= 22 × 1.5 = 33 inches

She has 3 foot ribbon or 36 inches, so she have enough for her class of 22 students.

Yes, she will.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

Ms. Leverenz is doing an art project with her class.

  • She has a 3-foot piece of ribbon.
  • She gives each student an eighth of a foot of ribbon.

<u>Question:</u>

Will she have enough for her class of 22 students?

<u>The Process:</u>

\boxed{ \ An \ eighth \ is \ \frac{1}{8} \ or \ equal \ to \ \frac{1 \times 125}{8 \times 125} = \frac{125}{1,000} = 0.125 \ }

Let us draw a diagram that connects between she gives each student an eighth of a foot of ribbon with 22 students in her class.

\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \ }\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \ }\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \ } \cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot \boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \ }\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \ } \\\boxed{1^{st}} \boxed{2^{nd}} \boxed{3^{rd}}  \cdot \cdot \cdot \cdot \boxed{21^{st}}\boxed{22^{nd}} \ student

From the diagram above, let us calculate how long (in ft) the ribbon she has given to 22 students.

\boxed{ \ \frac{1}{8} \times 22 = ? \ }

\boxed{ \ = \frac{22}{8} \ }

\boxed{ \ = \frac{16}{8} + \frac{7}{8} \ }

\boxed{ \ = 2 + \frac{7}{8} \ }

\boxed{\boxed{ \ = 2\frac{7}{8} \ }}

Therefore, there are 2\frac{7}{8}-foot piece of ribbon that she has given.

Ms. Leverenz has a 3-foot piece of ribbon.

\boxed{ \ 2\frac{7}{8} < 3 \ }

Thus, because the total number of pieces of ribbon given is smaller than the initial length, she will have enough for her class of 22 students

Which of these numbers is irrational?<br> -3.5<br> 3.5<br> ОО<br> 35<br> √5 help
Molodets [167]

Answer:

  √5 is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is one that can be written exactly as an integer or ratio of integers. Written as a decimal number, it will have a finite number of digits, or a repeating decimal fraction.

<h3>Application</h3>

Usually, a number that can <em>only</em> be expressed <em>exactly</em> using a <em>symbol</em> will be irrational. For square roots, any root of an integer other than a perfect square will be irrational.

The integer 5 is not a perfect square. It is between the squares 2²=4 and 3²=9. The square root of 5 is irrational.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

A reduced fraction whose denominator has factors other than 2 or 5 will translate to a repeating decimal. The number of repeating digits may be as many as 1 less than the denominator. For example, 1/19 has an 18-digit repeating decimal equivalent.
