Answer:
sound like a personal problem
Step-by-step explanation:
cuz
Life expectancy of dollar bill = d
life expectancy of coin = c
d = 1/20 c
substitute value in for c (30)
d = 1/20 * 30
d = 30/20
d = 1.5
life expectancy of a dollar bill = 1.5 years
Answer:
-784
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D.) because it cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers
Step-by-step explanation:
The root of any integer that is not a perfect square is irrational. 5 is not a perfect square, so is irrational—it cannot be expressed as the ratio of integers.

<em>Proof</em>
Suppose √5 = p/q, where p and q are mutually prime. Then p² = 5q².
If p is even, then q² must be even. We know that √2 is irrational, so the only way for q² to be even is for q to be even—contradicting our requirement on p and q.
If p is odd, then both p² and q² will be odd. We can say p = 2n+1, and q = 2m+1, so we have ...
p² = 5q²
(2n+1)² = 5(2m+1)²
4n² +4n +1 = 20m² +20m +5
4n² +4n = 4(4m² +4m +1)
n(n+1) = (2m+1)²
The expression on the left will be even for any integer n; the expression on the right will be odd for any integer m. This equation cannot be satisfied for any integers m and n, so contradicting our assumption √5 = p/q.
We have shown using "proof by contradiction" that √5 cannot be the ratio of integers.
