This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 50 clips and 14 of them are purple.
Probability of picking purple is 14/50 or 7/25. Probability of picking non purple is 1 - 7/25 = 18/25
Answer:
1.)
132 cm - 11 cm = 121 cm
So let the hypotenuse be x and the other leg be (121 - x).
11^2 + (121 - x)^2 = x^2
121 + 121^2 - 121(2)x = 0
x = 1/2 + 121/2 = 61 cm
Step-by-step explanation: not sure if this is right or not
Answer:
y = - 1/2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y+2= - 1/2x
Slope = -1/2
Point: (-2,2)
y-Intercept: 2 - (-1/2)(-2) = 2 - 1 = 1
Answer: 5 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of times that he saved $75 be x.
Let the number of times that he saved $150 be y.
Therefore, based on the information given in the question, we can form an equation which will be:
x + y = 8 ...... i
75x + 150y = 825 ....... ii
From equation I,
x + y = 8
y = 8 - x....... iiii
Put equation iii into ii and this will be:
75x + 150y = 825
75x + 150(8 - x) = 825
75x + 1200 - 150x = 825
75x - 150x = 825 - 1200
-75x = -375
x = 375/75
x = 5
He saved $75 5times from his paycheck.
