for any fraction a/b, the decimal format of it is just a ÷ b.
A)
is the number rational?
well, a rational number is one we can write as a ration or fraction, well clearly is a fraction so it is rational.
B)
can it be written as a repeating/recurring decimal? well, 9/20 is 0.45, so -9/20 is -0.45, no repeating decimal like 0.454545......... , just a plain vanilla -0.45, so nope.
C)
is it less than -0.4?
well, let's recall that for the negative side on the number line, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so then -1,000,000 is much smaller than -1, because -1 is closer to 0.
who is closer -0.4 or -0.45?
|--------------------- -0.45 -------- -0.40 ------------------- 0 --------------- 1 -------------------|
so, -0.45 is farther from 0, and therefore is smaller than -0.4, so yes.
Answer:
125.66ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 +1/n = 7/8
1/n= -5/8 +7/8
1/n = 2/8
1/n= 1/2
then you would try to get n by itself
by dividing n/1 to 1/n and 1/2
Answer:
The proportion that can be used to find x is;
(200-x)/x = 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Now, we want to find the proportion which can be used to find x.
From the question, we are told that the father skater traveled 7 ft for every 6 ft of the slower skater;
this means that the ratio of their speed is 7:6
Now, when they passed each other , the slower skater has traveled x ft, what this means is that the faster skater will have traveled a distance of (200-x) ft at that moment they passed each other.
Mathematically, since their time is equal i.e the time they used to pass each other, then, the ratio of their distances is same as the ratio of their speeds;
Hence;
(200-x)/x = 7/6 or x/(200-x) = 6/7
For the first one at the top it’s 300 and 575 then going down it’s 17.21, 63.33, and then 184.68
