Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is called a rational if it can be written in the form of p/q where p/q are integers and q≠0.

The terminating numbers are always a rational number.

From the given options it is clear that option option D represents a terminating number,

$5.33333..=5.\bar{3}$

$5.33333..=5+\frac{3}{10-1}$

$5.33333..=5+\frac{3}{9}$

$5.33333..=5+\frac{1}{3}$

$5.33333..=\frac{16}{3}$

The number 5.3333333... is a rational number.

Therefore the correct option is D.

Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve (a lemniscate)

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$m=\frac{9}{13}$ and $b=\frac{40}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of curve is

$2(x^2+y^2)^2=25(x^2-y^2)$

We need to find the equation of the tangent line to the curve at the point (-3, 1).

Differentiate with respect to x.

$2[2(x^2+y^2)\frac{d}{dx}(x^2+y^2)]=25(2x-2y\frac{dy}{dx})$

$4(x^2+y^2)(2x+2y\frac{dy}{dx})=25(2x-2y\frac{dy}{dx})$

The point of tangency is (-3,1). It means the slope of tangent is $\frac{dy}{dx}_{(-3,1)}$ .

Substitute x=-3 and y=1 in the above equation.

$4((-3)^2+(1)^2)(2(-3)+2(1)\frac{dy}{dx})=25(2(-3)-2(1)\frac{dy}{dx})$

$40(-6+2\frac{dy}{dx})=25(-6-2\frac{dy}{dx})$

$-240+80\frac{dy}{dx})=-150-50\frac{dy}{dx}$

$80\frac{dy}{dx}+50\frac{dy}{dx}=-150+240$

$130\frac{dy}{dx}=90$

Divide both sides by 130.

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{9}{13}$

If a line passes through a points $(x_1,y_1)$ with slope m, then the point slope form of the line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

The slope of tangent line is $\frac{9}{13}$ and it passes through the point (-3,1). So, the equation of tangent is

$y-1=\frac{9}{13}(x-(-3))$

$y-1=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{27}{13}$

Add 1 on both sides.

$y=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{27}{13}+1$

$y=\frac{9}{13}(x)+\frac{40}{13}$

Therefore, $m=\frac{9}{13}$ and $b=\frac{40}{13}$ .

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

44%

Step-by-step explanation:

you add up all the numbers to get the total then divied the single number (eg. 8) by the total. It will then show up as a decimal so in order to get rid of the decimal you multiply by 100. ( eg. 8 ÷50=0.16 → 0.16×100= 16 → 16% )

The bottom layer of a rectangular prism contains 15 unit cubes The prism is made up of 5 equal-size layers what is the volume of

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

75 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

Bottom layer of a rectangular prism is made up of 15 unit cubes.

Therefore, area of the 15 unit cubes = 15(area of the base of one unit cube)

= 15(1)²

= 15 unit²

Number of layers of unit cubes in the rectangular prism = 5

So the height of the prism = 5 units

Volume of the prism = (Area of the base) × Height

= 15 × 5

= 75 cubic unit
