Answer:

The fraction 1/3 is not equivalent to a a terminating decimal, the fraction is equivalent a number that does not terminate (repeating decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A <u>terminating decimal</u> it's a decimal with a finite number of digits.

A <u>repeating decimal </u>is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending

In this problem we have

1/3=0.33333333...

The digit 3 repeat over and over and over again without ever ending

therefore

The fraction 1/3 is not equivalent to a a terminating decimal, the fraction is equivalent a number that does not terminate (repeating decimal)

spayn [35]

The inequality is solved, and then, the graph is given at the end of this question.

------------------

  • 87 tickets have already been sold.
  • x can still be sold.
  • In total, the number of tickets sold is 87 + x.
  • The airplane can seat 175 passengers, thus, the total can be at most 175, that is:

87 + x \leq 175

x \leq 175 - 87

x \leq 88

  • The solution is given on a graph at the end of this answer.

A sector with an area of 11/2 pie cm has radius of 3 cm what is the central angle measure of a sector in degrees
Nikolay [14]
A= 1/360 m•pi r^2

11/2= 1/360 m• pi (3)^2

11/2= 1/360 m• pi • 9
Divide 360 by 9

11/2= 1/40 m pi

Cross multiply

440=2pi m

Divide both sides by 2pi

m= 70.02817 degrees round if necessary

Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form, with whole numbers in the numerator and denominator. 16 min to 72 min​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

16/72 is the same thing as 2/9, just simplified. If you make 16 to 72 in a fraction you get 16/72. You divide them with their GCF which is 8. 16 divided by 8 is 2 and 72 divided by 8 is 9. Therefore the answer is 2/9.
