Which number produces an irrational number when multiplied by 0.4

Assuming 0.4 is in fact, 2 divided by 5 (and not an approximation of some number that would require an infinite amount of decimal places to exactly express), then multiplication by 0.4 is the same as multiplying by 2 and dividing by 5.

This means that multiplying any rational number by 2/5 will yield another rational number (as given x/y as an input, where x and y are integers, and multiplying it by 2/5 giving 2x/5y, will mean that 2x and 5y are also integers, and the result is also rational)

If we multiply an irrational number by 2/5, however, the result will be irrational.

So your answer is any number not in the set of rational numbers, multiplied by 0.4, will yield an irrational number.

For a specific species of fish in a pond, a wildlife biologist wants to build a regression equation to predict the weight of a f
sashaice [31]

Answer: First of all, we will add the options.

A. Yes, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

B. Yes, because the regression equation is based on a random sample.

C. Yes, because the association between length and weight is positive.

D. No, because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

E. No, because there may not be any 3-inch fish of this species in the pond.

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation: It would not be appropriate to use the model to predict the weight of species that is 3 inches long because 3 inches falls above the maximum value of lengths in the sample.

As we can see from the question, the model only accounts for species that are within the range of 0.75 to 1.35 inches in length, and species smaller or larger than that length have not been taken into consideration. Therefore the model can not be used to predict the weights of fishes not with the range accounted for.

The slope and y intercept
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

the y intercept is 5 because the line passes through 5 on the y axis. Now to find the slope, pick two points where the line hits directly on the corner of the grid squares. pIck 2 of those and count the squares up till you are lined up with your other point then count over and get another number. Put the number going up over the number going down like x/y and you'll have your answer. ( simplify it if you can.(-2,3) and (0,5) are a good place to start. The answer should be 2/3. Hope this helped and God bless!

Compare and contrast a square and parallelogram using a Venn diagram
Eva8 [605]
A square and a parallelogram both have 2 sets of parallel lines. A square has equal lengths for all four sides while a parallelogram doesn't. A parallelogram is a more broad idea because a parallelogram involves trapezoids, rectangles, and squares too.But a square is more specific.
