"The sum" is going to be addition, "1 and 8" those are your two numbers, and "equals 9" is the answer.

In the end it's going to be 1+8=9.

Iliana was part of a group that was working on changing 0.4 repeated to a fraction. Each member of the group had a different ans

$\bf 0.444444444\overline{4}\impliedby \textit{and keeps on going}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{let's say }\boxed{x=0.444444444\overline{4}}\quad \textit{ thus }10\cdot x=4.44444444\overline{4}
\\\\\\
\textit{wait a minute! }4.44444444\overline{4}\textit{ is really just }4+0.444444444\overline{4}$

$\bf \textit{but we know }x=0.444444444\overline{4} \textit{ so then }4+0.444444444\overline{4}=\boxed{4+x}
\\\\\\
\textit{wait a second! }10\cdot x\implies 10x=4.444444444\overline{4}=4+x
\\\\\\
thus\qquad 10x=4+x\implies 10x-x=4\implies 9x=4\implies \boxed{x=\cfrac{4}{9}}$

you can check in your calculator.

anyhow, to get the "recurring decimal to fraction", you start by setting to some variable, "x" in this case, then move the repeating part to the left of the point by multiplying it by some power of 10, and then do the equating.

Find k so that the distance from (–1, 1) to (2, k) is 5 units. k= k= *there are two solutions for 2*

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

k = -3

k =5

Step-by-step explanation:

$d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\d = 5\\(-1,1) =(x_1,y_1)\\(2,k)=(x_2,y_2)\\$

$5=\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-1\right)\right)^2+\left(k-1\right)^2}\\\\\mathrm{Square\:both\:sides}:\quad 25=k^2-2k+10\\25=k^2-2k+10\\\\\mathrm{Solve\:}\:25=k^2-2k+10:\\k^2-2k+10=25\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}25\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\k^2-2k+10-25=25-25\\k^2-2k-15=0\\\\\mathrm{Solve\:by\:factoring}\\\\\mathrm{Factor\:}k^2-2k-15:\quad \left(k+3\right)\left(k-5\right)\\\mathrm{Solve\:}\:k+3=0:\quad k=-3\\$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:k-5=0:\quad k=5\\\\k =5 , k=-3$

5y-30=-5y+30 and also can you show the steps :}

KatRina [158]

5y-30=-5y+30

add 30 to both sides

5y = -5y+60

add 5y to both sides

10y = 60

divide both sides by 10

y = 6

<em>hope this helps!</em>

Two numbers have a sum of 761 and a difference of 335.what are the 2 numbers

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

548 and 213

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a linear function:

Let x = 1st number

Let y = 2nd number

x+y=761

x-y=335

2x=1096

x=548

plug x into either equation

548+y=761

y=761-548

y=213

548-y=335

-y=-213

y=213
