Answer: The expression that represents Meg's finishing time in June is "y - 10".
The problem started with Meg running in April. She had a time in April and we called it "y".
Now, Meg ran again in June. In June, she did 10 seconds faster. So it makes since that we need to subtract 10 from her April time, "y". Therefore, the expression is simply "y - 10".
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
It's one of each or not both tho:)
Answer: Option A, the square root of 40, is an irrational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 4 options:
- the sqrt of 40
- the sqrt of 49
- the sqrt of 100
- the sqrt of 9
All but one are perfect squares. Let's find out which one is not a perfect square.
The sqrt of 49 is 7. 7 times 7 is equal to 49.
The sqrt of 100 is 10. 10 times itself is equal to 100.
The sqrt of 9 is 3. 3 times 3 is equal to 9.
What about the square root of 40?
We know it's not a perfect square, and it's somewhere between 6 and 7. So, the hint from the question tells us that imperfect squares are irrational. Then this must be the answer!
