<span>the line over the 28 means the 28 repeats forever.
1.282828.... and so on
let x be the rational number 1.28...
we can use this trick:
100*1.282828....= 128.282828...
(the decimal 28 part repeats)
100x = 128.28...
next:
100x - x = 128.282828... - 1.282828...
the .282828... part will be subtracted away
99x = 127
divide both sides by 99 to get
x= 127/99</span>
Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:
3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)
Solve for x
3x - 1 = 2x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 1 + 2
x = 3
Also:
5y + 1 = 6y - 1
Collect like terms
5y - 6y = -1 - 1
-y = -2
Divide both sides by -1
y = -2/-1
y = 2
Answer:
because it matters where the points are located

Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
