Which number produces an irrational number when multiplied by 0.4

2 answers:

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.

What is the function f(x) = 2(x + 6), find x if f(x) = 22

lord [1]

Answer:

<h3>x = 5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2(x + 6)

f(x) = 22

thereofre we have the equation:

2(x + 6) = 22 <em>use distributive property</em>

2x + 12 = 22 <em>subtract 12 from both sides</em>

2x = 10 <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

x = 5

Which statement about this system of equations is true? A. The system has no solution. B. The system has a unique solution at (0

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

A. The system has no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Check to see if the 2 lines share 1 slope

slope of blue line = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{7-6}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}$

slope of red line = $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{-3-(-4)}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2: Realize that lines with the same slope never touch

We know lines with the same slope are parallel to each other so they won't collide

Step 3: Know what the question is asking you

When they ask for solutions to the system of equations they are asking you to find out where they intersect

Step 4: Find answer

Because we know this is a parallel line they will never intersect causing this system to never have an answer or solution

Therefore the answer is A. The system has no solutions

Which number line shows the solution set for the inequality -4x+7>15

Ira Lisetskai [31]

First, let's simplify the inequality as much as we can:

-4x + 7 > 15
-4x > 8

Divide by -4:
x < -2
