Why is .3 repeating a rational number

Mathematics
2 answers:
s2008m [1.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

.333333... can be expressed as 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is defined as:

<em>any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q. </em>

aka, any number that you can express as a fraction.

Any person who has spent enough time in math should be familiar with the fact that the thirds (aka 1/3, 2/3) are repeating decimals, but are rational numbers as they can be written as whole number fractions.

If you didn't know this, don't worry. You'll get it soon enough.

Hope this helped!

Can u help this helpless 9th grader ?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

y = 4x + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Temperature at sunrise = 32°F

y is the temperature after x hours of sunrise

Temperature change is 4°F/hour.

The equation of a line in slope intercept form is given by

y = mx +c

where m is the slope, which is the change in value of y to the value of x

and c is the value of y at x = 0

At sunrise, x =0 and y =32

∴ c = 32

Also we see that the change in temperature to that of time is 4/1 = 4

∴ m = 4

Substituting the values of m and c in the equation of line, we have

y = 4x +32
