Which number produces a rational number when multiplied by 0.5?

Mathematics

xxMikexx [17]3 years ago

If the number begins by being rational, multiplying by 0.5 will not change whether or not it is rational. It will remain rational.


That would include any even number 12 * 0.5 = 6

12 started out as rational, so the answer is rational (6)


Any odd number is also rational

23 * 0.5 = 11.5

23 and 11.5 are both rational.


3.636363636 ... is rational so when multiplied by 0.5 the result will be rational.

1.818181818....


So if we start with something irrational like pi

then pi * 0.5 is not rational.

If you have choices, please list them.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

(4.25, - 1.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the y- axis

a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ), thus

(- 4.25, - 1.75 ) → (4.25, - 1.75 ) ← original point

Mumz [18]

Answer:  Choice B) 60 roses and 10 carnations

============================================================

Explanation:

  • r = number of roses
  • c = number of carnations

r and c are positive whole numbers.

r+c = total number of flowers = 50, since 50 orders are made.

The first equation to set up is r+c = 50.

This equation can be solved to get r = 50-c.

------------------

3r = cost of all the roses only, in dollars

1.5c = cost of all the carnations only, in dollars

3r+1.5c = total cost of all the flowers = 195 dollars

3r+1.5c = 195

------------------

Let's apply substitution to solve

3r+1.5c = 195

3(50-c)+1.5c = 195

150-3c+1.5c = 195

-1.5c+150 = 195

-1.5c = 195-150

-1.5c = 45

c = 45/(-1.5)

c = -30

That's not good. We shouldn't get a negative value.

It turns out that the condition r+c = 50 should be ignored. Notice how none of the answer choices listed have r+c leading to 50.

So we'll only focus on the equation 3r+1.5c = 195

-----------------

If we plugged in r = 100 and c = 100, then we get

3r+1.5c = 195

3(100)+1.5(100) = 195

300+150 = 195

450 = 195

Which is false. So we can rule out choice A

Let's repeat those steps for choice B

3r+1.5c = 195

3(60)+1.5(10) = 195

180 + 15 = 195

195 = 195

So that works out. I have a feeling your teacher meant to say "70 orders" instead of "50 orders". If so, then the equation r+c = 50 would be r+c = 70 and everything would lead to choice B as the final answer.

Choices C and D are similar to that of choice A, so they can be ruled out.

Answer:

a. geometric

b. a<em>n</em> =  2(2)^n-1 or a<em>n</em> = 2^n

c. a<em>n+1</em> <em>= </em>a<em>n</em> x 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,...

a. The sequence is geometric because there is a common ratio in the numbers of the sequence. Each number is made by multiplying the common ratio and the previous number.

b. The explicit formula that can be used to find any term is a<em>n</em> =  2(2)^n-1 or a<em>n</em> = 2^n

Note: the variable n and number 1 is written in italics to show that it should be in subscript

a<em>n</em> = a<em>1 </em>(r)n-1

With the common ratio of n being 2 and first number being 2, we have:

a<em>n</em> =  2(2)^n-1

or

a<em>n</em> = 2^n

c. The recursive formula for the sequence is a<em>n+1</em> <em>= </em>a<em>n</em> x 2

a<em>n+1</em> = a<em>n </em>x r

Plugging in the values, we have

a<em>n+1</em> <em>= </em>a<em>n</em> x 2

Sphinxa [80]

The given statement is false as using stratified sampling guarantees that members of each group within a population will be sampled.

As given in the question,

Systematic sampling guarantees that members of each group within a population will be sampled is a false statement.

  • Systematic sampling represents the probability of sampling method based on the group formed at regular intervals.
  • Stratified sampling guarantees each subgroup within the population receives proper representation.

Therefore, the given statement is false as using stratified sampling guarantees that members of each group within a population will be sampled.
