Answer:
3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
we can divide that
- the square root of 5
- less than
- twice a number is 7
as you see the first one is really easy
the second one is < because it points to the lower number
the third one we have
twice a number is 7
let's say x is the number
so twice x is 7
twice means 2 times
so 2 times x is 7
so the number is 3.5

Determine the ratio of Cranberry to Apple to Orange
First, we calculate the fraction of Cranberry using:
Substitute values for Apple and Orange
Collect Like Terms
Take LCM
The ratio is then represented as:
Multiply through by 20
A
rational number is any number that can be written as the
ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form
Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have
Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are
,
,
and
so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case
works nicely.
9/50 is close to 10/50 or 1/5 or 0.2
7/15 is close to 7/14 or 1/2 or 0.5
0.2 + 0.5 = 0.7
0.7 is closer to 0.5 than 1
The answer would be B
