<u>ANSWER:  </u>

-8 is an rational number.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, is -8 rational number or irrational number.

So, we need to say either -8 is rational number or irrational number.

We know that,

Rational Numbers are those which are Fractions, integers, decimals that end, and repeating decimals. (12, 0.45, .3333333)

And, Irrational Numbers are those which are decimals that go on forever without an end  $(\sqrt{3}, \pi,-\sqrt{11})$

Here, in our problem, number is -8, clearly which is a number that has an end.

So, according to our knowledge, -8 is an rational number.

A farmer has a 100 ft by 200 ft rectangular field that he wants to increase by 15.5% by cultivating a strip of uniform width aro
Advocard [28]

Answer:

(a) The strip should be 5ft wide

(b) The strip around the outside field is 10ft wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the rectangular field, L= 200 ft

width of the rectangular field, w = 100 ft

Area of the rectangular field, A = 200ft x 100ft = 20000 ft^2

let the width of the strip = x

The strip around the outside field = 2x

If the field is increased by 15.5%

New area of the field = 1.155 x 20000 = 23,100 ft^2

The increase in area of the field = 3,100 ft

3,100 = New area of field - old area of the field

3100 = (200 + 2x)(100 + 2x) - 20000

3100 = 20000 + 400x 200x + 4x^2 - 20000

3100 = 600x + 4x^2

Divide through by 4

775 = 150x + x^2

x^2 + 150x - 775 = 0

Factorize

(x + 155)(x-5) = 0

x = 5 ft

The strip should be 5ft wide.

The strip around the outside field = 2 x 5 ft = 10 ft

Thus, the strip around the outside field is 10ft wide.

the grocery store has a special deal on potato chips where if you buy 1 bag you get the second bag for 50% off. if the sales tax
Taya2010 [7]
<span>The price for the three bags of chips is (3 x 2.50) - 2.50/2, because one of the bags will have 50% off. This makes $6.25. Divide this by 100 to find 1%, then multiply by 5 to find 5% — this tells you the amount of sales tax to add on. (6.25/100) x 5 = 0.31 to two decimal places. The final amount for the total purchase is 6.25 + 0.31 = $6.56.</span>
