Can someone explain rational and irrational numbers to me? Odysseyware sucks at teaching.

umka2103 [35]

I'm doing geometry for credit advancement in Odysseyware. Brainly and Openstudy are saviors. Anyways. So, and irrational number can't be written as a fraction, but can be written as a decimal. An irrational number has endless non repeating number to the right of the decimal point. A rational number is a number that can be written in a ratio. Which in turn means it can be written as a fraction. Both number of the fraction (numerator and denominator) are whole numbers. Any whole number is a rational number.

What is the middle integer?

Elanso [62]

Answer:

-56

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let's create an equation to figure out what the middle integer really is.

Creating an equation:

n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) = -168 (This is true because we must account for the consecutive integers part.)

Simplifying:

3n + 3 = -168

Subtracting:

3n = -171

Dividing:

n = -57

Now, we plug-and-chug:

-57, -56, -54 (this is because we accounted for adding positive one.)

Thus, the middle integer is $\boxed{-56}$ .

Check:

We can see if we are correct by adding up -57, -56, -54.

(-57) + (-56) + (-54) = -168

So we are correct!

Hope this helps!
