Answer:

0.125 is a terminating decimal.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the decimal for 1/8

Divide 1 by 8 using long division

                           0.1  2   5

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

        8                   1 .0000

                             8

                        ------------------------ Subtract

                              20

                               16

                          ----------------------- Subtract

                                  40

                                   40

                         -------------------------Subtract

                                   0

So 1/8 is 0.125

Terminating decimal is a decimal that is not repeating. It has only finite number. It is a decimal that ends.

0.125 has only finite numbers. its not repeating. So 0.125 is a terminating decimal.

Two studies were completed in Georgia. One study in northern Georgia involved 3,000 patients; 84% of them experienced flulike sy
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The northern Georgia study with a margin of error of 1.7%.

All else being equal, the study with the larger sample size has the smaller margin of error. So the result makes sense (as 0.84 is pretty close to 0.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the third choice "The northern Georgia study with a margin of error of 1.7%."

All else being equal, the study with the larger sample size has the smaller margin of error. So the result makes sense (as 0.84 is pretty close to 0.75)

The sum of three times a number and six is twelve.
Kaylis [27]

For this case we must raise the equation according to the given statement.

Let the variable "x" be the unknown number.

So, three times the number is: 3x

If to that term is added "6" we have:

3x+6

The sum of both terms is "12", then:

3x+6 = 12

Thus, the equation is: 3x+6 = 12

Answer:

3x+6 = 12

Four time a number r plus half a number s equals 12. Twice the number r plus one fourth of the numbers s equals 8. What are the
Snezhnost [94]

The system of equations have no solution.

Explanation:

The equations are 4r+\frac{1}{2}s=12 and 2r+\frac{1}{4} s=8

To find the two numbers, let us solve the equations using substitution method.

From the equation 2r+\frac{1}{4} s=8, let us determine the value of r,

$\begin{aligned} 2 r+\frac{1}{4} s &=8 \\ 2 r &=8-\frac{1}{4} s \\ r &=\frac{1}{2}\left(8-\frac{1}{4} s\right) \\ r &=4-\frac{1}{8} s \end{aligned}$

Let us substitute the value of r in 4r+\frac{1}{2}s=12, we get,

$\begin{aligned} 4\left(4-\frac{1}{8} s\right)+\frac{1}{2} s &=12 \\ 16-\frac{1}{2} s+\frac{1}{2} s &=12 \\ 16 &=12 \end{aligned}$

which is not possible.

This means that the system has no solution.

Factor completely x^2-12x+36
Elenna [48]

Answer:

{(x - 6)}^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

= {x}^{2} - 12x + 36 \\  = {x}^{2} - (6 + 6)x + 36 \\  =  {x }^{2} - 6x - 6x + 36 \\  = x(x  -  6) - 6(x  - 6) \\  =(x - 6)(x - 6) \\  =  {(x - 6)}^{2}
