Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula to calculate the depreciated value is equal to
where
V is the depreciated value
P is the original value
r is the rate of depreciation in decimal
x is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
substitute the values and solve for x
Apply log both sides
Answer:
there is no way to solve it
Step-by-step explanation:
i think you may have missed part of the question
to do it in mental math: you can ignore the zeroes in 400 for now.
4*14 = 4*10 + 4*4 = 40 + 16 = 56
now add the zeroes back on: 5600m
Answer:
the answer would be D
Step-by-step explanation:
first you add all your marbles up and that is you bottom half of the equation and then you put the amount of white marbles on top.
A irrational number is a number that can't be expressed as a ratio of two whole numbers. That's it.
For examples (in increasing order of difficulty)
1 is a rational number because it is 1/1
0.75 is a rational number because it is equal to 3/4
2.333... (infinite number of digits, all equal to three) is rational because it is equal to 7/3.
sqrt(2) is not a rational number. This is not completely trivial to show but there are some relatively simple proofs of this fact. It's been known since the greek.
pi is irrational. This is much more complicated and is a result from 19th century.
As you see, there is absolutely no mention of the digits in the definition or in the proofs I presented.
Now the result that you probably hear about and wanted to remember (slightly incorrectly) is that a number is rational if and only if its decimal expansion is eventually periodic. What does it mean ?
Take, 5/700 and write it in decimal expansion. It is 0.0057142857142857.. As you can see the pattern "571428" is repeating in the the digits. That's what it means to have an eventually periodic decimal expansion. The length of the pattern can be anything, but as long as there is a repeating pattern, the number is rational and vice versa.
As a consequence, sqrt(2) does not have a periodic decimal expansion. So it has an infinite number of digits but moreover, the digits do not form any easy repeating pattern.
