Answer:
The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:
n=3.24242424...
10n=32.4242424....
100n=324.2424242...
Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:
100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321
99n = 321
n = 321/99

Thx for the points
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Height of fir tree = 9 meters
height of pine tree= 12 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The combined height of one fir tree and one pine tree is 21 meters. The height of 4 fir trees stacked on top of each other is 24 meters taller than one pine tree.
Let x be the height of fir tree and y be the height of pine tree

Subtract x from both sides

height of 4 fir trees = pine tree +24

Substitute 21-x or y in the above equation

Add x on both sides

Divide by 5 on both sides
x=9
Now plug in 9 for x and find out y


y=12
Height of fir tree = 9 meters
height of pine tree= 12 meters
10 refers to the number of 100's
multiple 10 by 100 to get 1000
