Yes he is correct as rational numbers are any numbers, like- 0.5444, -2.8, 7, -3, 1/2, -1/9. Thus, 0.505005000500005 is a rational number as it is a repeating decimal.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L +2W
L is the length
W is the width
If the length of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 7 times the width, then;
L = 7W-2 .... 2
Substitute eqn into the formula for finding the perimeter
P = 2(7W-2)+2W
P = 14W-4+2W
P = 16W-4
If P =60cm
60 = 16W-4
16W = 60+4
16W = 64
W = 64/16
W = 4cm
Hence the width of the rectangle is 4cm
Since l = 7w-
l = 7(4)-2
L = 28-2
L = 26cm
You can proceed and draw a rectangle with the dimension of 4cm by 26cm
You would first turn it into an improper fraction, to do this you leave the denominator(bottom number) then times it by your variable and add the numerator(top number)
Ex:
1 3/4x1/3= 7/12
48
+14
-------
62
If you need more work:
Ones place: 8+4=12
Tens place: 40+10=50
Add up: 50+12=62
