Can a -150/10 be classified as both a rational number and a integer

irakobra [83]

Yes! This is because -150/10 can be simplified to be -15, which is a rational number.

The word “rational” sounds like another math word you’ve heard of before. Do you know what it is?

Well, it’s “ratio”!! Ratios can be seen in the forms x:y and x/y.

ANY RATIONAL NUMBER HAS THE ABILITY TO BE WRITTEN AS A RATIO!! This will completely exclude numbers with super long decimal points (ex: 1.2345678809928374737272828...)

This number also meets the requirements of being an integer. An integer is any whole number (this excludes decimals and fractions)

I know it’s written as a fraction. However, the fraction could be simplified, making it -15, which means this is both a rational number and an integer!!

Aljan and Bella are both driving from Cleveland to Chicago. Aljan leaves at

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Bella will pass Ajjan after 4h and they will have travelled 260 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the number of hours, "x", that it'll take for Bella to pass Aljan, we need to find the value of "x" that makes both equations equal. Therefore,

$60*x + 20 = 65*x\\65*x - 60*x = 20\\5*x = 20\\x = \frac{20}{5} = 4$

In order to calculate the distance they traveled, we must use this value for "x" in any of the equations, as done below:

$y = 65*4\\y = 260$

Bella will pass Ajjan after 4h and they will have travelled 260 miles.

a park is 9/10 mile long and 4/5 mile wide. What is the area of the park? ENTER ANSWER AS A FRACTION FOR EXAMPLE: 4/10.

ASHA 777 [7]

The park formed like a rectangle so :

Area = length × width

Area = ( 9/10 ) × ( 4/5 )

Area = 9 × 4 / 10 × 5

Area = 9 × 2 × 2 / 5 × 5 × 2

Area = 18 / 25

The probability, P, that a person responds to an advertisement can be modeled by the exponential function P = 1 – e^-0.047t. In

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

To solve this equation, start by noticing that you want to find t when P is 75%, or 0.75. Plug in 0.75 for P. Please see the attached screenshot for a step-by-step. The correct answer is 29.496 days.

EDIT 2: I actually was correct! You check the answer by substituting 29.496 for t in the original equation set equal to 0.75. It is 0.75. I had forgotten the negative sign when I checked.

Lieutenant James made an average of 3 arrests per week for 4 weeks. How many arrests does she need to make in the fifth week to

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the average arrests to be 4. It can be done by calculating the average between the average arrests and arrests during the 5th week, so we get:

Avg(1,2,3,4,5) = (Avg(1,2,3,4) + A(5)) / 2

Where Avg(x) is the average of arrests in given weeks, and A(x) is the number of arrests in a given week.

Solving for A(5) => A(5) = 2*Avg(1,2,3,4,5) - Avg(1,2,3,4) = 2 * 4 - 3 = 8-3 = 5
