ANSWER
1. Multiply the fraction by 5/5 to get a denominator of 100 and then write the numerator as hundredths using a decimal point.
EXPLANATION
Renaldo wants to write
as a decimal.
He needs a denominator of 100, so he can multiply by
to obtain:
This will be
He can now obtain the decimal equivalent as
The correct choice is option 1.
Answer:

Given the equation
Use distributive property:
Use commutative property to rewrite the equation:
Add 10 th both sides:
Subtract
Divide by 13:
Answer:
A. As the value of x increases, the value of f(x) moves toward a constant
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function with a base less than 1 will decay to zero. Here, the exponential has -2 added to it, so the decay is toward the value -2.
An exponential function is defined for all real numbers. This one has a y-intercept of -1.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for x means you have to factor. First factor out the GCF of 2 to get:
and now we'll factor using the regular old method of ac and then factoring by grouping. In our polynomial, a = 3, b = 1, c = -6. Therefore, a times c is 3 * -6 which is -18. We need some combinations of the factors of 18 that will add to give us 1, the b term in the middle. The factors of 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6 and that's it. Hm...it seems that won't work, so let's throw this into the quadratic formula, going back to the original and a = 6, b = 2 and c = -12:
and
and
and
and
which finally simplifies to
No wonder that didn't factor using the traditional method of factoring! We could have found that out by finding first the value of the discriminant, but oh well!
