What kinds of denominators generate repeating decimals?

1 answer:

4 0

There are specific values of denominators that would yield a non-terminating decimal expansion. In other words, the decimal would be repeating. These denominators are multiples of 3. That could be 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and so on and so forth. For example, 1/3 = 0.333333, 1/6 = 0.166666, 1/9 = 0.1111, and so on and so forth.

An alloy is composed of nickel, zinc, and copper in a ratio of 7:2:9. How many kilograms of each metal are needed to make 3.6 kg

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Nickel= 1.8 kg

Zinc= 0.4 kg

Copper= 1.8 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

7:2:9

7=nickel

2=zinc

9=copper

7+2+9=18

18×2=36

7×2=14 2×2=4 9×2=18

Divide by 10

14÷10=1.4 4÷10=0.4 18÷10=1.8

1.8+1.4+0.4= 3.6

1.8=nickel

0.4=zinc

1.8=copper

A jacket cost $35.50 more than a pair of tennis shoes if the total cost of both items is $161.30 find the cost of each

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$62.9 and $98.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of tennis shoe be x

Since a jacket cost $35.50 more than a pair of tennis shoe,

Then cost of jacket would be

= $35.50 + x

Total cost of both items would be;

x + $35.50 + x = $161.30

2x = $161.30 - $35.50

2x = $125.8

x = $62.9

Therefore, cost of pair of tennis shoe is $62.9

Jacket cost would now be

= $35.5 + x

= $35.5 + $62.9

= $98.4

Find (f • g) when f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 6 and g(x) = 1/x+3

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 6$

$g(x)= \frac{1}{x+3}$

(fog)(x) = f(g(x))

Plug in g(x) in f(x)

We plug in 1/x+3 in the place of x in f(x)

$f(g(x))= f(\frac{1}{x+3})= (\frac{1}{x+3})^2 + 5(\frac{1}{x+3}) + 6$

To simplify it we take LCD

LCD is (x+3)(x+3)

$\frac{1}{(x+3)(x+3)}+5\frac{1*(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+3)}+\frac{6(x+3)(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+3)}$

$\frac{1}{x^2+6x+9}+\frac{(5x+15)}{x^2+6x+9}+\frac{6x^2+36x+54}{x^2+6x+9}$

All the denominators are same so we combine the numerators

$\frac{1+5x+15+6x^2+36x+54}{x^2+6x+9}$

$\frac{6x^2+41x+70}{x^2+6x+9}$

Option D is correct
