A
rational number is any number that can be written as the
ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form

Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have

Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are

,

,

and

so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case

works nicely.
Answer:8
Step-by-step explanation: behind the x value (5) there are 2 ages that had a value. You add the two values (5+3) and you get 8.
Final answer is 8.
Answer:
The required equation is 3y=36 and the tape diagram is shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
We need to write a multiplication equation that has a solution of 12.
3y=36
We know we have to split 36 into three equal groups, so we have to divide by 3 to show this algebraically.
3y÷3=36÷3
y=12
Now check this with the help of tape diagram as shown.
Consider the figure 1.
This represents if 36 had to be split into three groups, how big would each group be?
By the tape diagram we concluded that the value of y is 12.
Hello,
y=x²-10x+7=x²-2*5x+25-25+7=(x-5)²-18
