Write each decimal as a percent and a fraction -0.04
1 answer:
Answer:
-4% -1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert a decimal to a percentage, multiply it by 100.
-0.04 * 100 = -4
To convert a decimal to a fraction, put the decimal as a fraction over 1 and multiply until the numerator (top number) is a whole number and then simplify.

=
-4/100 simplified = -1/25 <em>(because </em><em>4</em><em> goes into </em><em>100</em><em> 25 times)</em>

Answer:
x = - , x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(4x - 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )
4x - 5 = ± = ± 7 ( add 5 to both sides )
4x = 5 ± 7, thus
4x = 5 - 7 = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = = -
or
4x = 5 + 7 = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 3
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = -
left side = (- 2 - 5)² = (- 7)² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
x = 3
left side = (12 - 5)² = 7² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
