Answer:
Congressman Smith will defeat Challenger Jones
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the poll has a +/- 3% margin of error, the minimum and maximum possible percentages for each candidate are:
(44% - 3%) ≤ Jones ≤ (44% + 3%)
41% ≤ Jones ≤ 47%
(54% - 3%) ≤ Smith ≤ (54% + 3%)
51% ≤ Smith ≤ 57%
This means that, even in the worst possible scenario for Congressman Smith, he would still beat Jones with 51% against 47% of the votes. The pollster can safely predict that Congressman Smith will defeat Challenger Jones

Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
0.888...
This is a <u>repeating decimal</u> (Is a decimal that has a digit, or a block of digits, that repeat over and over and over again without ever ending)
Convert to fraction number
Let
x=0.888...
10x=8.888...
Subtract 0.888... from 8.888... to remove the decimal
10x-x=8.888...-0.888...
9x=8
Solve for x
x=8/9
therefore
Mike fraction is incorrect
because 4/5=0.8
0.8 is a <u>terminating decimal </u>(It's a decimal with a finite number of digits)
Mike's mistake was considering the number as a terminating decimal instead of a repeating decimal
Beth is correct
because
If you divide 8/9
the result is 0.8888888...
Use the midpoint formula.
(x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2
Then you should be able to find the reflection line based on where the middle of the two points are.
