Answer:

11.5 is a rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's see the definition of rational and irrational.

Rational number is a number that can be written in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ , where q≠0.

There rational numbers have the terminating or non terminating decimals with repeating the pattern.

For example: $\frac{1}{3} = 0.33333.....$

You can see that 3 is repeating non terminating decimals.

Irrational number is a number with non repeating decimals.

For example: $\frac{22}{7} = 3.142857...$

The given number is 11.5 which is terminating decimal number.

Therefore, 11.5 is a rational number.

Solve for x. Give the solutions in ascending order. x^2+3x-4=0 x= or x=

lutik1710 [3]

To solve this equation simply find 2 numbers that multiply to give -4 and add also to give 3, these numbers are 4 and -1. Since 4 • -1 = -4 and 4 + -1 = 3.

X^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
(X - 1)(X + 4) = 0
X = -4 and X = 1 in ascending order.

Two trains 100 km apart are traveling toward each other along the same track. The first train goes 50 km per hour; the second tr

dem82 [27]

Answer:

92.31 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Combined speed = 50+80

= 130 km/hour

Time = 100/130 = 10/13 hours to collide

Speed × time = distance

distance = 10/13 × 120

= 92.30769231 km

Which equation represents a circle with the same radius as

sattari [20]

Answer :

$(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2$ and $(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A circle with the same radius as the circle shown but with a center at (-1.1).

To find : Which equation represents a circle ?

Solution :

The equation of a circle with center (h,k) and radius r is given by :

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Here, we are given (h,k)=(-1,1)

and radius r=4 units

So, equation of circle will be :

$(x-(-1))^2+(y-1)^2=4^2$

$(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2$

or $(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16$

Therefore, the required equations of circle are

$(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=4^2$ and $(x+1)^2+(y-1)^2=16$
