Finding which number supports the idea that the rational numbers are dense in the real numbers.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:A terminating decimal between -3.14 and -3.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

A natural number includes non-negative numbers like 5, 203, and 18476.

It is encapsulated by integers, which include negative numbers like -29, -4, and -198.

Integers are further encapsulated by rational numbers, which includes terminating decimals like 3.14, 1.495, and 9.47283.

By showing a terminating decimal between -3.14 and -3.15, you are showing that rational numbers include integers (because integers include negative numbers.

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?

telo118 [61]

Answer:

$f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of the parabola with a focus of $(3,1)$ and directrix $y=5$ .

Considering the directrix, the quadratic graph must open downwards.

The equation of this parabola is given by the formula,

$(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)$ , where $(h,k)$ is the vertex of the parabola.

The axis of this parabola meets the directrix at $(3,5)$ .

Since the vertex is the midpoint of the focus and the point of intersection of the axis of the parabola and the directrix,

$h=\frac{3+3}{2}=3$ and $k=\frac{5+1}{2}=3$ .

The equation of the parabola now becomes,

$(x-3)^2=4p(y-3)$ .

Also $|p|$ is the distance between the vertex and the directrix.

$|p|=2$

This implies that $p=-2\:or\:2$ .

Since the parabola turns downwards,

$p=-2$ .

Our equation now becomes,

$(x-3)^2=4(-2)(y-3)$ .

$(x-3)^2=-8(y-3)$ .

We make y the subject to get,

$y=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3)$ .

This is the same as

$f(x)=-\frac{1}{8}(x-3)^2+3)$ .

Mr. Noel borrowed money from his cousin at a rate of 10% simple interest. After 1 year, $440

Alborosie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the simple interest expressed as;

Simple Interest = Principal * rate * time/100

Note that the principal is the amount he originally borrowed

I = PRT/100 ............ 1

Amount paid off A = Principal+Interest

A = P+I ............ 2

From equation 2; I = A-P......... 3

Substitute equation 3 into 1;

A-P = PRT/100

Given A = $440, R = 10%, Time = 1year

Substitute the given parameters into the resulting equation;

440 - P = P*10*1/100

440-P = 10P/100

440-P = 0.1P

440 = 0.1P+P

440 = 1.1P

Divide through by 1.1;

1.1P/1.1 = 440/1.1

P = $400

<em>Hence the amount Mr Noel originally borrow is $400</em>
