If the numbers after the decimal terminate, yes, it's rational.
9.521521521 = 9,521,521,521 / 1,000,000,000
If they don't terminate, but the pattern continues (which I suspect is the case here), yes, it's still rational.
If <em>x</em> = 9.521521521…, then
1000<em>x</em> = 9521.521521521…
Subtract <em>x</em> from this to eliminate the fractional part:
1000<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = 9521.521521521… - 9.521521521…
999<em>x</em> = 9512
<em>x</em> = 9512/999
If they don't terminate, but the pattern does <em>not</em> continue, meaning the next few digits could be something random like
9.521521521<u>19484929271283583457</u>…
then the number would be irrational.
Total owed to the business = $100,000
amount that could not be collected = $5000
Fraction of total not collected
Answer:
The correct option is A
Step-by-step explanation:
Since (1, 3) are the solutions to the function g(x), then
g(x) = (x – 1)(x – 3) = x² –3x – x + 3 = x² – 4x + 3
We know that f(x) is on the same plane and f(1) = 1.
Let's take g(1) = (1 – 1)(1 – 3) = 0
Therefore, when x = 1; f = 1 and g = 0. Hence
g(1) = f(1) – 1
In order words, g(x) could be f(x) – 1.
The correct option is A
The selling price would be $11.20.
40% = 40/100 = 0.4
The mark up is 40% of the cost; this means 40% of 8:
40% of 8 = 0.4(8) = 3.20
8 + 3.20 = 11.20
