You convert a decimal to a fraction by putting the digits to the right of the decimal point over "1" followed by the same number of zeros. (Most folks learn this in 3rd or 4th grade.)
0.66 = 66/100 . . . . . 2 decimals, so the denominator is 100
Then you reduce the fraction by canceling common factors. It helps to know your times tables and divisibility rules. (Or you can have your calculator do it.)
0.66 = 66/100 = 33/50
1.00 = 100/100 = 1
Answer:
1. wire is approx. 143.96 ft
2. pole is approx. 106.55 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Mapping the information on the SOHCAHTOA picture below:
Φ = 46
wire = hypotenuse
adjacent side = 100
CAH is most suitable:
cos 46° = 100/wire => wire = 100/cos 46 ≈ 143.96
pole = opposite side + 3
TOA is most suitable:
tan 46° = (pole-3)/100 => pole = 3 + 100 * tan 46 ≈ 106.55
Answer:
x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using completing the square method
x²+9x+2=0
x²+9x = -2 (complete the square by adding (9/2)² to both sides)
x²+9x + (9/2)² = -2 + (9/2)²
( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (9/2)²
( x + (9/2) )² = -2+ (81/4)
( x + (9/2) )² = 73/4
x + (9/2) = ± √(73/4)
x + (9/2) = ± √(73) / 2
x = -(9/2) ± √(73) / 2 (factorize out (1/2) )
x = (1/2) (-9 ± √73)
33/9=11/3 or 3.666666667
