Answer:
A rational number.
Step-by-step explanation
A rational number is a ratio of whole numbers.
1/3 is the ratio of 1:3
3:1 becomes 3/1 = 3
32:10 can be written 32/10 or 16/5 or 3.2
16/5 is a rational number 16 and 5 are integers, 5 is not equal to 0.
Therefore, 3.2 which can be expressed as 16/5 is a rational number.
No, (9.5, 144) does not make sense because there is no point of 9.5 and when you divide the ounces of water by the flavoring packets you end up with 12, and if you were to simplify that it would end up with 1 flavor packet and 12 ounces of water.
Answer:
the answer is 10 to the 5th power

Answer:
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2-4x-9=29
Add 9 to each each side
2x^2-4x-9+9=29+9
2x^2-4x=38
Divide by 2
2/2x^2-4/2x=38/8
x^2 -2x =19
Complete the square
x^2 -2x + (-2/2)^2 = 19 +(-2/2)^2
x^2 -2x +1 = 19+1
(x-1)^1=2 = 20
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-1)^2) = ±sqrt(20)
x-1 = ±sqrt(20)
Add 1 to each side
x-1+1 = 1 ±sqrt(20)
x = 1 ±sqrt(20)
Simplifying the square root of 20
x = 1 ±sqrt(4)sqrt(5)
x = 1 ±2sqrt(5)
Jenny won the race as she finished the race much more quickly and has greater average speed than Lester.

Jenny: distance/time = 100/15.2 = 6.58 m/s = 6.6 m/s
Lester: distance/time = 100/15.7 = 6.37 m/s = 6.4 m/s
