Compare 1/7 to consecutive multiples of 1/9. This is easily done by converting the fractions to a common denominator of LCM(7, 9) = 63:

1/9 = 7/63

2/9 = 14/63

while

1/7 = 9/63

Then 1/7 falls between 1/9 and 2/9, so 1/7 = 1/9 plus some remainder. In particular,

1/7 = 1/9¹ + 2/63.

We do the same sort of comparison with the remainder 2/63 and multiples of 1/9² = 1/81. We have LCM(63, 9²) = 567, and

1/9² = 7/567

2/9² = 14/567

3/9² = 21/567

while

2/63 = 18/567

Then

2/63 = 2/9² + 4/567

so

1/7 = 1/9¹ + 2/9² + 4/567

Compare 4/567 with multiples of 1/9³ = 1/729. LCM(567, 9³) = 5103, and

1/9³ = 7/5103

2/9³ = 14/5103

3/9³ = 21/5103

4/9³ = 28/5103

5/9³ = 35/5103

6/9³ = 42/5103

while

4/567 = 36/5103

so that

4/567 = 5/9³ + 1/5103

and so

1/7 = 1/9¹ + 2/9² + 5/9³ + 1/5103

Next, LCM(5103, 9⁴) = 45927, and

1/9⁴ = 7/45927

2/9⁴ = 14/45927

while

1/5103 = 9/45927

Then

1/5103 = 1/9⁴ + 2/45927

so

1/7 = 1/9¹ + 2/9² + 5/9³ + 1/9⁴ + 2/45927

One last time: LCM(45927, 9⁵) = 413343, and

1/9⁵ = 7/413343

2/9⁵ = 14/413343

3/9⁵ = 21/413343

while

2/45927 = 18/413343

Then

2/45927 = 2/9⁵ + remainder

so

1/7 = 1/9¹ + 2/9² + 5/9³ + 1/9⁴ + 2/9⁵ + remainder

Then the base 9 expansion of 1/7 is

0.12512..._9

Anyoneee?? Mean Median and mode
juin [17]

Answer:

mode is the most occuring number which is in this case 11

you get the median by putting them in order from least to greatest and them marking them out until you get to the middle but if there are two numbers in the middle you add them and then divide by two and that is your median but in this case your median is 11

you get the mean by adding all the numbers together and dividing by how many numbers there are so in this case you are dividing by 9 and when you add oall of these numbers together you get 98 and 98/9 is 10.8888888889 which you would round and get 10.9

hope this helps

1. Match the polynomial identity to the correct answer.
Katen [24]

Answer:

a: (a-b)(a+b);b: (a-b)(a^{2}+ab+b^{2});  c: (a^{2} +2ab+b^{2}); d: (a+b)(a^{2}- ab+b^{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions all that is required is to expand them (using the distributive property) to see which answers they match up to:

For a: (a-b)(a+b)=a^{2} +ab-ab-b^{2} =a^{2}-b^2

For b: (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)=a^3+a^2b+ab^2-a^2b-ab^2-b^3=a^3-b^3

For c calculate the square of a sum: (a+b)^2=a^2+ab+ab+b^2

(add like terms) c: a^2+2ab+b^2

For d: (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)=a^3-a^2b+ab^2+a^2b-ab^2+b^3=a^3+b^3
