Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the fraction be a

a*100.....=0.05*100

100a......=05.00

99a....=0.05

100a= 5.00

99a= 0.05

a= 4.95/99

Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the given number as the numerator and place 1 in the denominator right below the decimal point followed by the number of zeros required accordingly.

In this case, 0.05 has two numbers after the decimal, so, we place 100 in the denominator and remove the decimal point. This will make it 5/100

Step 2: Then, this fraction can be simplified. 5/100 = 1/20

Thus, 0.05 as a fraction is written as 1/20

x = π/6, 5π/6, 7π/6, 11π/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The only things you need to know are 2 things:

1.) $csc^2(x)=(csc(x))^2$ , the exponent of trig functions are written in the middle

2.) $csc(x)=\frac{1}{sin(x)}$ , csc() is just the inverse of sin()

(a) $x^{-5}$

(b) $3x^{-7}$

Solution:

To write each of the given expression in the form $ax^n$ :

(a) $\frac{x^3}{x^8}$

Using exponential rule: $\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}$

$$\frac{x^3}{x^8}=x^{3-8}$

$$\frac{x^3}{x^8}=x^{-5}$

(b) $\frac{6x}{2x^8}$

Divide numerator and denominator by the common factor 2, we get

$$\frac{6x}{2x^8}=\frac{3x}{x^8}$

Using exponential rule: $\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}$

$$=3x^{1-8}$

$$\frac{6x}{2x^8} =3x^{-7}$

Divide numerator and denominator by the common factor 7, we get

$$\frac{28x^6}{21x^2}=\frac{4x^6}{3x^2}$

Using exponential rule: $\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}$

$$=\frac{4}{3}x^{6-2}$

$$\frac{28x^6}{21x^2}=\frac{4}{3}x^4$
