What fraction benchmark is .58 closest to?

Mathematics

NikAS [45]2 years ago

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since we aren't given any options, there isn't a limit to what it is.

But, assuming you said fraction benchmark it has to be somewhere between 1/2 2/3 3/4 etc.

Now, we can convert the fractions to their equivalent decimal form

1/2 = 0.5

2/3 = 0.66 repeating.

3/4 = 0.75

Now, we can see that 0.58 is 8 units away from 0.66

We can see that it is also 8 units away from 0.5.

But, seeing to that 2/3 is 0.66 with a ton of sixes, it would in theory be away by 8.66 compared to 8 from 0.5

Therefore, we get the closest benchmark is 1/2 (0.5)

Solve this quadratic equation by completing the square. x2 + 10x = 26
Misha Larkins [42]
                        x² + 10x = 26
                x² + 10x + 25 = 26 + 25
          x² + 5x + 5x + 25 = 51
x(x) + x(5) + 5(x) + 5(5) = 51
         x(x + 5) + 5(x + 5) = 51
                 (x + 5)(x + 5) = 51
                          (x + 5)² = 51
                             x + 5 = ±√(51)
                                 - 5      - 5
                                   x = -5 ± √(51)
                                   x = -5 + √(51)    or    x = -5 - √(51)

Here is a linear equation: y = 1/4x +5/4
docker41 [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,1.5) is the solution but (12,4) is not the solution of given equation.

1.5=1/4×1+5/4(which is true)

4=1/4×12+5/4(which is false)
