How do you tell if a number is irrational or rational?

6 0

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! :)

Factor the trinomial x^2 - 7x + 10

Valentin [98]

Answer:

(x-5) (x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 (-2x-5x) +10

basically you will write the equation down and then to double check multiply the x and then the -5 into (x-2). this can be repetitive if you get it wrong so try to do numbers that make sense.

a waitress sold 17 ribeye steak dinners and 14 grilled salmon dinners, totaling $598.95 on a particular day. another day she sol

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Roasted Steak RS=14.47

Grilled Salmon GS= 25.21

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a 2 equation system as follows

E1-> 17RS+14GS=598.95

E2-> 28RS+7GS=581.64

We assume the system has only one solution and apply the following calculation to create a single equation

E3 -> 2x E2 -E1

That way the only incognit will be RS

(28x2 - 17) RS + (7x2 - 14) GS = 581,64x2- 598,95

39RS= 564,33

We solve for RS and then use E1 to solve for GS and E2 to check the answers
