C = 1.6b
c + b = 442

1.6b + b = 442
2.6b = 442
b = 442 / 2.6
b = 170 <== Boston

c = 1.6b
c = 1.6(170)
c = 272 <== Colorado Springs

How do you make $2.161616 as a fraction and a mixed number

tatuchka [14]

Essentially, if you want something repeating, you want a 9 in your denominator - 0.22 repeating would be 2/9 or 22/99 and 0.16 repeating would be 16/99. Therefore, 2+16/99 is a mixed number and (198+16)/99=214/99 as a fraction

Find the value of y...

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite Evaluate Powers:

3 $3^{2y-1}+3^{-1}+2*3^{y}*3^{-1}=1$

Calculate:

$(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +2*3^{y}*\frac{1}{3}=1$

Solve using substitution:

$(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +\frac{2}{3} *3^{y}=1$ $t=3^{y}$

Solve the equation for t:

$t^{2}*\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{3}t=1$

t=-3

t=1

Substitute back to t=3^y

3^y=-3

3^y=1

y∉R

$3^{y}=1$

y=0
