A rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction
(ex: -5/2, 4 1/7, and 8/13)

An irrational number is any number that cannot be expressed as a fraction; a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal (ex: pi, 0.121231234...)

Hope this helps! :)

Find slope given the graph of a line on a grid

Alborosie

Slope is rise over run or Y2 - Y1 divided X2 - X1. The X's and Y's are your coordinate points. It doesn't matter which Y you put down first but remember to choose the X in the same place. Your coordinate points are (0, -1) and (-4, 2)

Your equation will be:

-1 - 2 / 0 - (-4)
-3 / 0 + 4
-3 / 4
Your slope is negative 3/4

Use elimination to solve each system if equation 3x+2y=0and x-5y=17

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$y = -3$

$x=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x + 2y = 0$

$x - 5y=17$

to use the elimination you have to make one of the numbers same

so

$3(x-5y=17)$

and you would have to change the sign so that both of the 3x could cancel out.

New system of equation

$3x + 2y = 0$

$-3x+15y=-51$

$17y=-51$

$y = -3$

so we know the y value so now you could find the x value take one equation

$x - 5y=17$

$x +15=17$

$x = 2$

you could try it with both of the equations

$3x + 2y = 0$

$3x + - 6=0$

$3x-6=0$

$3x=6$

$x=6/3$

$x=2$

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, as shown below:

natita [175]

Answer:

$\frac{q}{b}=\frac{r}{c}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the options for this question are as follow,

$\frac{q}{c}=\frac{r}{b}$

$\frac{c}{p}=\frac{b}{a}$

$\frac{c}{a}=\frac{q}{r}$

$\frac{q}{b}=\frac{r}{c}$

Here, In triangles ABC and PQR,

AB = c, BC = a, AC = b, PQ = r, QR = p and PR = q,

Since,

$\traingle ABC\sim \triangle PQR$

We know that,

The corresponding sides of similar triangles are in same proportion,

Thus,

$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BC}{QR}=\frac{AC}{PR}$

$\frac{c}{r}=\frac{a}{p}=\frac{b}{q}$

$\frac{r}{c}=\frac{p}{a}=\frac{q}{b}$

$\implies \frac{q}{b}=\frac{r}{c}$

What is -0.4 as a fraction or mixed number?<br><br>

NISA [10]

Answer:

-0.4 = −2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the decimal number as a fraction.

-0.4/1

Multiply to remove 1 decimal places.

-0.4/1 x 10/10 =4/10

Find the GCF.

4 ÷ 2/10 ÷ 2 = 2/5

x = 2/5
