Answer:
The rational number equivalent to 3.24 repeating is 321/99
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert the decimal number to a rational number we can state this number and its multiples of 10, trying to find two number with identical decimal parts:
n=3.24242424...
10n=32.4242424....
100n=324.2424242...
Now, 100n and n have the same decimal part, then by subtracting these numbers we obtain:
100n-n=324.24242424...-3.24242424... = 321
99n = 321
n = 321/99
Answer:
-11
Step-by-step explanation:
The generic solution to ...
- a + b = sum
- a - b = difference
Can be found by adding the two equations:
(a+b) + (a-b) = (sum) + (difference)
2a = (sum + difference)
a = (sum + difference)/2
___
Our particular solution is ...
a = (-44 +22)/2 = -11
The greater of the two numbers is -11.
___
The other number is -33.
You could do -1/-2 times -5/-4 which would be 5/8
The property that is shown is called the zero property.
A negative sign and a negative sign next to each other is a positive sign ex..
-14 - -3
= -14 + 3
= -11
a negative sign and a positive sign next to each other is a positive sign ex..
-14 + -3
= -14 - 3
= -17
the bigger a negative number the smaller it is
the bigger a positive number the larger it is
which supports the rule if you are subtracting the
number will become smaller and if you are adding
the number will become larger
