Answer:
whats the question
Step-by-step explanation:
So, the first thing we need to know is what is what.
So, A natural number is a whole number
A whole number is an integer
and An integer is a rational number.
Now, since there is a terminating decimal (a decimal that does not go on forever) we know it is a rational number.
Since there is a decimal, it cannot be an integer, therefore
It is a rational number
Answer:
<u>The rate the swimming pool is filled is 9 gallons of water per minute</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's review the information provided by Ronald to us to help him to find the answer to the question:
Time it takes to fill the swimming pool = 8 minutes
Amount of water the swimming pool can hold = 72 gallons
2. At what rate does the swimming pool fill, in gallons per minute?
Rate the swimming pool is filled = Amount of water the swimming pool can hold /Time it takes to fill the swimming pool
Replacing with the real values, we have:
Rate the swimming pool is filled = 72/8 = 9 gallons of water per minute
Answer:
(3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to solve this by substitution
We first need to get a variable by itself in one of the two equations (it doesn't matter which variable and the equation you do the work on doesn't matter either)
I'm going to solve for y in the second equation
-4x-4y=4
add 4y and subtract 4 from both sides to get
-4x-4=4y
Divide by 4 to get
-x-1=y
We can plug this value in for y into the first equation and get
4x+5(-x-1)= -8
Solve for x
4x-5x-5= -8
-x-5= -8
-x= -3
x=3
We can plug this value into one of the first two equations and solve for y
4(3)+5y= -8
12+5y= -8
5y= -20
y= -4
Therefore the solution is (3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
