Answer:

The decimal form of this rational number is 0.\overline {27}.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let \frac{a}{b} a rational number. From statement we understand that a represents the numerator, while b corresponds with the denominator of the rational number. Hence, a is 3 and b is 11.

b) The decimal form is obtained by dividing a by b, we presented the step needed to determine the decimal form:

i) Multiply the numerator by 10:

Dividend: 30/Divisor: 11/Known result: 0. /Residue: N/A

ii) Multiply the divisor by 2 and subtract from the dividend:

Known result: 0.2 /Residue: 8

iii) Multiply the residue by 10:

Known result: 0.2 /Residue: 80

iv) Multiply the divisor by 7 and subtract from the residue:

Known result: 0.27 /Residue: 3

v) Multiply the residue by 10:

Known result: 0.27 /Residue: 30

vi) Multiply the divisor by 2 and subtract from the residue:

Known result: 0.272/Residue: 8

vii) Multiply the residue by 10:

Known result: 0.272 /Residue: 80

viii) Multiply the divisor by 7 and subtract from the residue:

Known result: 0.2727/Residue: 3

We have notice that the decimal form of \frac{3}{11} is a periodical decimal number. Hence, we conclude that decimal form of this rational number is 0.\overline {27}.

For each of the functions below, indicate whether the function is onto, one-to-one, neither orboth. If the function is not onto
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z is one to one mapping, it is not onto mapping

Step-by-step explanation:

f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z\\ f_{1} (x) = x^{3}

f₁(x) is one to one mapping

Let x, y \epsilon Z

f₁(x) = f₁(y):

x₁³ = y₁³

f₁(x) is not onto mapping

Example: If f₁(x) = 7,

x₁³ = 7

x_{1} = \sqrt[3]{7}

x₁ is not an element of Z

f_{1} :Z \rightarrow Z is one to one mapping, it is not onto mapping
