<h3>
Answer: D) 3/150</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
With the use of a calculator, we see that,
- 11/19 = 0.57894736842106...., the decimals eventually repeat; but unfortunately my calculator ran out of room to show the repeating portion
- 4/7 = 0.5714285714285714..., the block "571428" repeats forever
- 1/3 = 0.333333.... the 3s go on forever
- 3/150 = 0.02
So 3/150 converts to the terminating decimal 0.02
The word "terminate" means "stop". In the other decimal values, the decimal digits go on forever repeating the patterns mentioned.
----------------------
A non-calculator approach will have us simplify 3/150 into 1/50 after dividing both parts by the GCF 3. Then notice how 50 has the prime factorization of 2*5*5. The fact that the denominator 50 can be factored in terms of only 2's and 5's is enough evidence to conclude that the fraction converts to a terminating decimal.
If the denominator factors into some other primes, other than 2s and 5s, then we don't have a terminating decimal. So that's why 11/19, 4/7 and 1/3 convert to non-terminating decimals.
Answer:
Let width = w
length = 4w/3
Area = 432 = length*width = w*4w/3
4w^2/3 = 432
w^2 = 432*3/4 = 324
w = 18
so the width of the cake pan is 18 inches.
Answer:
<em>Lisa borrowed $8,500</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Simple Interest
</u>
Occurs when the interest is calculated on the original principal of a loan only.
Unlike compound interest where the interest earned in the compounding periods is added to the old principal, simple interest only considers the principal to calculate the interest.
The interest earned is calculated as follows:
I=Prt
Where:
I = Interest
P = initial principal balance
r = interest rate
t = time
Lisa took out a loan for t=5 months and was charged simple interest at an annual rate of r=4.8% = 0.048. She paid interest for I=$170.
We need to convert the time to years (there are 12 months per year):
t = 5 /12 years.
The formula must be solved for P:
Substituting:
Lisa borrowed $8,500
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding 2 to both sides will not help solve the equation.
Adding 2 to both sides gives you this:
x^3 = ∛(x-2)
x^3 + 2 =∛(x-2) + 2
What was the original question?
Answer:
y=-1/2x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-5)=-1/2(x-(-6))
y+5=-1/2(x+6)
y=-1/2x-6/2-5
y=-1/2x-3-5
y=-1/2x-8
