Suppose a wild fire is doubling in size every 6 hours. If the initial size of the fire was 1 acre, how many acres will the fire

cover in 2 days?

8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2 days= 24 hours in 1 day, so multiply that by 2 to get 48 hours total.

Now find the amount of time the wild fire doubles by dividing 48 total hours by 6. So it will double 8 times

The size was 1 acre. Let's multiply by 2, 8 times

1

2

4

8

16

32

64

128

The fire will cover 128 acres in two days.

Answer:

  1. rational
  2. irrational
  3. irrational
  4. irrational
  5. √7, it is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

A <em>rational</em> number is one that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers. All fractions that have integer numerators and (non-zero) denominators are <em>rational</em> numbers. Any finite decimal number, or any repeating decimal number, is a rational number. These can always be expressed as the ratio of two integers. For example, 0.4040... = 40/99, and 0.286 = 286/1000.

To make an irrational sum, at least one of the contributors must be irrational. You want an irrational 2-number sum that has 7/8 as one of the contributors. Since 7/8 is rational, the other contributor must be irrational.

__

<u>Step 1</u>. The number 7/8 is <em>rational</em>.

<u>Step 2</u>. The desired sum is <em>irrational</em>.

<u>Step 3</u>. The rule <em>rational + </em><em>irrational</em><em> = irrational</em> applies.

<u>Step 4</u>. An <em>irrational</em> number must be chosen.

Step 5. √7 will produce an irrational sum, because <em>it is irrational</em>.
