I just learned a short time ago how to convert a repeating decimal to a fraction.

-- Take the repeating part of the decimal. In this one, it's '764' .

-- Make a fraction out of it by writing it over the same number of 9s.

   The fraction here is 764/999 .

-- Simplify it if possible and if you feel like it.

   764/999 can't be simplified. (I think.)

So the rational expressions for this decimal are

   (5 and 764/999)   or   5759/999   .

1) Perimeter=2length+2width
This is the formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle

2) Density=mass/volume
The “Quotient” is the answer to a division problem (like how the “sum” is the answer to an addition problem) which is why we know to divide mass and volume

3) Force = mass*acceleration
The “product” is the answer to a multiplication problem which is why we know to multiply mass and acceleration

4) surface area = 6*L^2
The formula used to calculate the area of a square is L^2. The problem tells us that surface area is the sum of all the faces of a 3D shape. Because there are 6 sides on a cube, we multiply L^2 by 6.

Hope this helps!

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

${x}^{2} - 14x + 48 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} - 6x -8 x + 48 = 0 \\ x(x - 6) - 8(x - 6) = 0 \\ (x - 6)(x - 8) = 0 \\ \boxed{ x = 6\: and \: 8}$
