There are 14 floors in the building, because since Juan went up 4 floors, down 3 floors, and up one floor; so we know that he is 2 floors above from where he originally started. Once he went down 9 floors he passed the starting point and went to the bottom of the building. So, the middle must have been the 7th floor. Once I knew that I multiplied 7*2 and it got me 14. So in total there are 14 floors. I hope this helped ^^

What is 3.8 repeating as a fraction in simplest form
Olin [163]
\bf 3.8888888\overline{8}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
x=3.8888888\overline{8}\qquad thus\qquad 
\begin{array}{llcll}
10x&=&38.888888\overline{8}\\
&&\downarrow \\
&&35+3.8888888\overline{8}\\
&&\downarrow \\
&&35+x
\end{array}
\\\\\\
10x=35+x\implies 9x=35\implies x=\cfrac{35}{9}

the idea being, you multiply the "x" by some power of 10 that moves the repeating part to the left of the decimal point and the split it like above.

Part A: Solve –mk – 90 > 85 for m. Show your work.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A) m < -175/k and B) 3c/5 - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Add 90 to both sides. -mk > 175.

Next, divide both sides by -k. Because you divide by a negative, don't forget to reverse the sign!

m < -175/k.

B) Subtract 3c from both sides.

-5f = 55 - 3c.

Now multiply both sides by -1/5.

f = 3c/5 - 11
