The value of 2/7 expressed as a truncated decimal to the nearest thousandth is 0.286
Rational numbers are numbers written as the ratio of two integers. For example, the fraction 2/7 given is a rational number.
Expressing 2/7 as a decimal number will give;
2/7 = 0.2857142... (It gave repeated decimal values)
Truncating the repeating decimal to the nearest thousandth means writing the decimal to 3 decimal places
0.2857142 = 0.286 (to the nearest thousandth)
Hence the value of 2/7 expressed as a truncated decimal to the nearest thousandth is 0.286

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial is :
p(x) = 5-10x
We need to find the zeros of the above polynomial. To find it, put p(x) = 0
5-10x = 0
Subtract 5 from both sides
5-10x-5=0-5
-10x=-5
or
10x=5
Divide both sides by 10.
x = 0.5 = 1/2
Hence, the zeros of the polynomial is 1/2.
