Show that 0.357 is a rational number.

Answer:

0.357 = (357)/(1000).

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is a rational number if and only if it is equal to the ratio between two integers. In other words, a number x is a rational number if and only if there are integers (whole numbers) p and q (q \ne 0) such that x = p / q.

Thus, the 0.357 in this question would be a rational number as long as there are integers p and q (q \ne 0) such that p / q = 0.357. Simply finding the right p\! and q\1 would be sufficient for showing that 0.357\! is rational.

Since 0.357 is a terminating decimal, one possible way to find p\! and q\1 is to repeatedly multiply 0.357\! by 10 until a whole number is reached:

10 \times 0.357 = 3.57.

10^{2} \times 0.357 = 35.7.

10^{3} \times 0.357 = 357.

Thus, 0.357 = (357) / (10^{3}), such that p = 357 and q = 1000 (both are integers, and q \ne 0) would ensure that 0.357 = p / q.

Therefore, 0.357 is indeed a rational number.

Answer:

lower limit is n=1

upper limit is n=18

n=1 to 18∑(7n-4)

Number of beads = 1125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given series is 3+10+17+24.....

we find the formula to find nth term(explicit formula)

first term (a1) = 3

common difference (d)= 7

a_n = a_1+(n-1)d

a_n = 3+(n-1)7

a_n = 3+7n-7

a_n =7n-4

total of 18 rows

So we find sum for n =1  to 18

lower limit is n=1

upper limit is n=18

n=1 to 18∑(7n-4)

(b) to find total number of beads we apply sum formula

s_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a+(n-1)d)

n=18, a=3, d= 7

s = \frac{18}{2}(2(3)+(18-1)7)

S= 9(125)=1125

Number of beads = 1125

How do you write a function of t that represents the situation(sales $10,000 increase by 65% each year)?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  s(t) = 10000·1.65^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of an exponential model is ...

  f(t) = (initial value) × (1 +(fractional change))^t

where the fractional change can be positive or negative and t is the number of time units. Each time unit will correspond to the period required for the fractional change.*

__

For your problem, you have (initial value) = 10,000 and (fractional change) = 65% = 0.65 with time units of 1 year. Your function for sales (s) will then be ...

  s(t) = 10000·1.65^t

_____

* The business regarding time units has to do with problems where you get a description like "increased 30% in 4 hours." Then, if t is in hours, the multiplier of the initial value looks like 1.30^(t/4).

Solve for x<br> -1+30x+24=6(5x+4)<br> ???
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the expression, combine like terms, and distribute.

-1+30x+24=6(5x+4)

30x+23=30x+24

Get rid of the variable first because they're both 30x (it makes it a lot easier).

30x+23=30x+24

<u>-30x      -30x</u>

23=24

23 is not equal to 24. When this happens, it means there is no solution, and that's just the answer.

Hope this helps you out!! Have a great day C:

Which property best justifiies why the two expressions below are equivalent? 3(m+5)=3m+15
nadya68 [22]
The answer is the distributive property because it states that if you have a number multiplied by a quantity, you can just multiply that number by each of the terms in the quantity. For example, a(x+y)=ax+ay.

Hope this helps!
