The answer is 3.4 because 30 can’t be divided equally into 9, reason being that 9 x 30 = 270 which doesn’t make sense, so you have to divide 30 equally into 9 parts then turn it into a ratio.
<h3>
Answer: 5</h3>
=================================================
Work Shown:
x^2 - 5x + 1 = 0
x^2 + 1 - 5x = 0
x^2 + 1 = 5x
(x^2 + 1)/x = 5 .... where x is nonzero
(x^2)/x + (1/x) = 5
x + (1/x) = 5
---------------
An alternative method involves solving the original equation using the quadratic formula. After you get the two roots x = p and x = q, you should be able to find that p + 1/p = 5 and also q + 1/q = 5 as well.
In this case,
p = (5 + sqrt(21))/2
q = (5 - sqrt(21))/2
Answer:
.125
Step-by-step explanation: To convert 1/8 to a decimal, divide the denominator into the numerator. 1 divided by 8 = . 125. To convert the decimal .
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: It would equal 1/27.
Step-by-step explanation: Any number raised to a negative exponent, essentially means you reciprocal to get rid of the negative. After that, you do the math for the number in the denominator, without considering the negative sign. You could also do it the other way, do the function first without the negative, 3^3 is 27 and then applying the negative, reciprocal it to 1/27.
