Choose the best description for the real number 34 over 3.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all let's eliminate the answers that do not make sense. For A. numbers are NOT irrational because they are a fraction. Numbers are also not irrational because they are a repeating number. C and D are both correct as fractions and terminating decimals are both rational numbers.

34/3≈11.33333333

By using a certain formula you can convert repeating decimals to a fraction. But most people know that .3333333 is 1/3. This gives us 11 1/3 as our answer. So what does it match? It is not a terminating decimal. It repeats but can be written as a fraction. Therefore our answer is C) Rational, because it is a fraction.

What two rational expressions sum to 2x+3/x^2-5x+4

Anni [7]

Answer:

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rational expression: $\frac{2x + 3}{x^2 - 5x + 4}$ , to express this in simplified form, we would need to apply the concept of partial fraction.

Step 1: factorise the denominator

$x^2 - 5x + 4$

$x^2 - 4x - x + 4$

$(x^2 - 4x) - (x + 4)$

$x(x - 4) - 1(x - 4)$

$(x- 1)(x - 4)$

Thus, we now have: $\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$

Step 2: Apply the concept of Partial Fraction

Let,

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)}$ = $\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

Multiply both sides by (x - 1)(x - 4)

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} * (x - 1)(x - 4)$ = $(\frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}) * (x - 1)(x - 4)$

$2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

Step 3:

Substituting x = 4 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(4) + 3 = A(4 - 4) + B(4 - 1)$

$8 + 3 = A(0) + B(3)$

$11 = 3B$

$\frac{11}{3} = B$

$B = \frac{11}{3}$

Substituting x = 1 in $2x + 3 = A(x - 4) + B(x - 1)$

$2(1) + 3 = A(1 - 4) + B(1 - 1)$

$2 + 3 = A(-3) + B(0)$

$5 = -3A$

$\frac{5}{-3} = \frac{-3A}{-3}$

$A = -\frac{5}{3}$

Step 4: Plug in the values of A and B into the original equation in step 2

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{A}{x- 1} + \frac{B}{x - 4}$

$\frac{2x + 3}{(x- 1)(x - 4)} = \frac{-5}{3(x- 1)} + \frac{11}{3(x - 4)}$

a student has scores of 74%, 78% and 70% on three exams. What score is needed on a fourth exam for the student to earn an averag

Anna [14]

(74 + 78 + 70 + x) / 4 = 80

Divide each number by 4.

18.5 + 19.5 + 17.5 + x = 80

Add the numbers you know so far.

18.5 + 19.5 + 17.5 = 55.5

You need 24.5.

Now, since we divided all the others by 4, we have to multiply 24.5 by 4 to see what the exam score would be.

24.5 * 4 = 98.

To get an average of 80%, the student would need to get a 98 on their fourth exam.

What is the standard deviation of the data set given below 5 7 9 11 13

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

3.1623 (sqrt(10))

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard Deviation is calculated by first squaring the differences between the observations and the mean and then taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the differences divided by the number of observations - 1.

Mean = Sum of Observations/Total Observations

Mean = (5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13)/5 = 45/5 = 9.

Square of the mean = 9^2 = 81.

Now subtracting the mean from each observation and squaring it gives:

(5 - 9)^2 = (-4)^2 = 16

(7 - 9)^2 = (-2)^2 = 4

(9 - 9)^2 = (0)^2 = 0

(11 - 9)^2 = (2)^2 = 4

(13 - 9)^2 = (4)^2 = 16

Sum of squares = 16 + 4 + 0 + 4 + 16 = 40.

Standard deviation = sqrt(40/4) = sqrt(10) = 3.16 (correct to 2 decimal places).

Therefore, answer is 3.16!!!
