If I cut a cake into equal parts and one slice = 3.333, where would I find the 0.001?​ (total of slices = 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

That is so because 1/3 is *not exactly equal to* 0.333333

0.333333 is an approximation of 1/3 which is correct to 6 decimal places.

So 0.333333 x 3 = 0.999999 which is approximately equal to 1.

If you want to be more accurate, you could write the fraction 1/3 everywhere and not write it in floating point form.

1/3 in floating point format will be 0.333333333…..and so on with infinite decimal places. This is because when you try to divide 1 by 3, you get a nonterminating recurring number after decimal point.

Its usually represented by a bar or dot on top of the recurring part

Ex. 1/3 = 0.3bar

(Sorry I can't get the bar on 3 by typing from keyboard)

But let's just say 0.3 bar is 0.333333…and so on to infinity.

When you multiply 0.3bar x 3 you get 0.9bar

= 0.999999….and so on to infinity.

These decimal point figures just a very great approximations of the fraction 1/3.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reply if you still have doubts.

(3x+4)^3=2197 solve this equation
Burka [1]
(3x + 4)³ = 2197

Taking the cube root in this case is easier, although we can do it the extended way which is complicated.

\sqrt[3]{(3x+4)^3} = \sqrt[3]{2197}
3x + 4 = 13

Now solve normally.

subtract 4
3x + 4 = 13
       -4    -4

3x = 9
Divide by 3 to isolate 3

\frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{9}{3}
3 and 3 cancels out

x = 3

Write the first trigonometric expression in terms of the second expression. Cot(x); sin(x)
Alina [70]

The first trigonometric expression cot x and sin x in terms of the second expression is one over tan x and one over cosec x.

<h3>What is trigonometry?</h3>

Trigonometry deals with the relationship between the sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

Write the first trigonometric expression in terms of the second expression.

The cotangent can be written as

\cot x= \dfrac{1}{\tan x}

And the sine can be written as

\sin x = \dfrac{1}{\csc x}

More about the trigonometry link is given below.

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%20-%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7Dx%2
ivann1987 [24]

A line parallel to your equation has the same slope, so it should be in the form:


y = (-3/2)x + b


To figure what "b" has to be, plug in the point (4,0) and solve:

0 = (-3/2)*4 + b

0 = -6 + b

6 = b

So the equation of the line is:

y = (-3/2)x + 6
