Answer:
3/5 or
0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
You could change these fractions to decimals, but you may not be convinced that the answer you get is the same as just using fractions. I'll start by using fractions.
x - 2/5 = 1/5 Add 2/5 to both sides
x - 2/5 + 2/5 = 1/5 + 2/5 The left side cancels to 0.
x = 1/5 + 2/5 The denominators (bottom the fraction) are the same. Just add the tops.
x = (1 + 2)/5
x = 3/5
=======================
If you use your calculator to find 2/5 and 1/5, you can get the same answer as 3/5
2
÷
5
=
0.4
By the same method, 1/5 = 0.2
Substitute into the original equation
x - 0.4 = 0.2 Add 0.4 to both sides
x - 0.4 +0.4 = 0.2 + 0.4 The left side reduces just to x
x = 0.2 +0.4
x = 0.6
If you let your calculator do the work, like this
3
÷
5
=
0.6
The answers are the same.
Answer:
- (a) no
- (b) yes
- (c) no
- (d) no
Step-by-step explanation:
"Of the order x^2" means the dominant behavior matches that of x^2 as x gets large. For polynomial functions, the dominant behavior is that of the highest-degree term.
For other functions, the dominant behavior will typically be governed in some other way. Here, the rate of growth of the x·log(x) function is determined by log(x), which has decreasing slope as x increases.
Only answer selection B has a highest-degree term of x^2, so only that one exhibits O(x^2) behavior.
So if you do 8x14=112 is the area. So 112 divided by 40= 2.8. He will need 2.8 pints of paint.
