Describe how you can tell that a fraction is reapeating and not terminating

<span> First, reduce the fraction to lowest terms, e.g. 8/6 = 4/3.

Look at the denominator. Split it into its prime factors. If its prime factors only consist of 2's and 5's, then it will be terminating.

Examples:
16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2, so terminating
25 = 5 x 5, so terminating
2000 = 2 x 1000 = 2 x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5), so terminating
12 = 2 x 3, so repeating (has prime factor 3, which is not 2 or 5)
13 = 13, so repeating (has prime factor 13, which is not 2 or 5)  Hope this helps!!

what is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through (5, -4) and has a slope of 3/4?
Troyanec [42]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(5,-4)...x = 5 and y = -4
now we sub
-4 = 3/4(5) + b
-4 = 15/4 + b
-4 - 15/4 = b
-16/4 - 15/4 = b
- 31/4 = b....or - 7 3/4 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3/4x + (-31/4) or y = 3/4x - 31/4

The slope of the line between the points On the line would be -1. And the y intercept would be 1.

Y = -x + 1.
