Question about decimals
I have a math problem
205.17/713.95
I worked it out all by hand and eventually got to 34.79797241 as the calculator stated. This problem was very time consuming as it took a lot of work to complete. I was wondering if there was a simpler way of cutting my answer short that would also be correct?. I am unable to determine if this number is terminal or repeating as the decimal answer looks repeating with the 7979 but then appears to be terminal with the 241 part. Im assuming this number is terminal? Do I just need to suck it up and do the math or Is there a certain part of the decimal place value it would be appropriate to just stop at?
One more question unrelated to my previous questions.
I originally tried to solve this problem out of (A.) 713.95the divisor /by 205.17 the dividend as I know I am ALWAYS supposed to put the bigger number in the dividend section, but I am curious on how I would go about solving this question the opposite way (B.) with 205.17 as the divisor /by 713.95 as the dividend. I know this is possible as the calculator states
(A.) 713.95/205.17 =3.479797241
(B.) 0.2873730653 (I'm guessing this overwhelmingly long decimal is also terminal?)
Answer:
Both are terminating decimalsStep-by-step explanation:
Answer to your questions:
First of all, both A and B are correct and both quotients are terminating decimals.To find out if the decimal is terminating or not, multiply the quotient by divisor. If you get exactly the same number as dividend, then it is terminating otherwise it is non-terminating.The fraction may have greater numerator than denominator, in this case the quotient will be greater than one.Now regarding simplification. You would be asked to give an answer rounded to some extend. One decimal place, two decimal places, 3 significant numbers etc. For the first operation you would get 34.8 (rounded to nearest tenth). Or you may be asked to have a best estimated result. In this case you would round the initial numbers and find results. 205/714 ≈ 0.29you want to create a 99 confidence interval with a margin of error of 25 assuming that the population standard deviation is equal to 1.5 what's the minimum size of the Rams Tampa
Answer:
The minimum sample size is 239.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
Population standard deviation is equal to 1.5
This means that [tex]\sigma = 1.5[/tex]
Margin of error of 0.25
This means that [tex]M = 0.25[/tex]
What's the minimum size of the sample?
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.25 = 2.575\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.25\sqrt{n} = 2.575*1.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*1.5}{0.25}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.575*1.5}{0.25})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 238.7[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum sample size is 239.
If f(x) = 3x - 1 and f(x) = 3f(x) = 3, find x.
Answer:
x = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x - 1
f(x) = 3
set equal
3x - 1 = 3
add 1 to both sides
3x = 4
Divide both sides by 3
x = 4/3
Answer:
x=4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\tt f(x)=3x-1[/tex] [tex][\tt f(x)=3][/tex]
[tex]\tt 3=3x-1[/tex]
[tex]\tt 3+1=3x[/tex]
[tex]\tt 4=3x[/tex]
[tex]\tt x=\cfrac{4}{3}[/tex]
Ive been stuck on this problem for an hour, help pleaseee.
The graph of the function is given below. Give all y-intercepts and x-intercepts shown.
Answer:
y intercept: [tex]y = 1[/tex]
x intercept: [tex]x = -1[/tex] and [tex]x = -3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached graph
Solving (a): The y intercepts
This is the point where [tex]x = 0[/tex]
From the attached graph, [tex]x = 0[/tex] when
[tex]y = 1[/tex]
Hence, the y intercept is 1
Solving (b): The x intercepts
This is the point where [tex]y = 0[/tex]
From the attached graph, [tex]y = 0[/tex] when
[tex]x = -1[/tex] and [tex]x = -3[/tex]
Hence, the x intercept are -1 and -3

-
For a year you owe 1600 on a credit card you pay 19% interest a year how much are you paying
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest = Principle * time * rate of interest
= 1600 * 1 * 19%
= 1600 * (19/100)
= 304
Total amount of debt
= 1600 + 304
= 1904
Answer:
1296

The following rule is used to work out the total cost, in cunos, ofhings
Total cost - 9 euros for each hour plus 20 euro
Paolo hires the room for 5 hours.
(a) Work out the total cost.
Answer:

Aaron, Glenn, James, Matt and Trevor stop for pizza. The boys decide to order the same type of pizza. A whole pizza is divided into eight equal pieces and costs seventy cents a slice. Aaron says he will eat one-half of a pizza. Glenn says he will eat one-fourth of a pizza. James says he will eat three-eighths of a pizza. Matt says he will eat four-eighths of a pizza and Trevor says he will eat three-eighths of a pizza. How many whole pizzas do the boys order and what does each boy pay for his pizza slices? Show all your mathematical thinking.
Answer:
The correct answer is -
1. 2 whole pizza
2. each boy pay for his pizza slices are -
Aaron - $2.80
Glenn - $1.40
James - $2.10,
Matt - $2.80 and
Trevor - $2.10
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the question, Aaron, Glenn, James, Matt, and Trevor are boys who ordered pizza as per their requirements.
Total slices ordered are -1/2 of pizza or 4 for Aaron, 2 for Glenn, 3 slices for James, 4 slices for Matt and 3 for Trevor,
= 4+2+3+4+3 = 16 slices
2 pizza means = 16 slices
total price = 70 cents*16
= $11.20
each boy pay for his pizza slices are -
Aaron - $2.80 - 4 slice
Glenn - $1.40 - 2
James - $2.10, -3
Matt - $2.80 - 4
Trevor - $2.10 -3

A personnel psychologist studying adjustment to the job of new employees found a correlation of .3 between amount of education and rating by job supervisors 2 months later. The psychologist now plans to use the amount of education to predict supervisors’ later ratings. Indicate the independent/predictor variable, dependent/criterion variable, and beta. Write the Z-score prediction model; give the predicted Z-scores for supervisor ratings for employees with the amount of education Z-score of -1.5, -1, -.5
Answer:
the predictor variable is: amount of education
the criterion variable is: the Supervisors' rating
the beta is: .3
the Zy scores are -0.45, -0.3, 0.15
Step-by-step explanation:
r=beta which is the same; hence correlation equals regression
use this formula for the Z-scores
Zy= (beta) (Zx)
zy=(.3) (-1.5) = -0.45
(E) -1.5;
Zy=-0.45
(F)-1,
Zy=-0.3
(G)-.5.
Zy=-0.15

A store has two different coupons that customers can use. One coupon gives the customer $35 off their purchase, and the other coupon gives the customer 35% off of their purchase. Suppose they let a customer use both coupons and choose which coupon gets applied first. For this context, ignore sales tax.
Let f be the function that inputs a cost in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "$35 off" coupon, and let g be the function that inputs a cost in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "30% off" coupon.
Required:
What is correctly represents the fact that the cost of purchasing $190 worth of goods is $98 when the "30% oft" coupon is applied first followed by the "$35 off" coupon?
Answer:
h(x)=f[g(x)]=0.7x-35
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case function f, which inputs a cost and outputs the cost after applying the $35 off coupon looks like this:
f(x)=x-35
where x is the cost of the purchase. In this case we are subtracting the $35 from the cost x.
Function g, which inputs a cost and outputs the cost after applying the 30% off coupon looks like this:
g(x)=x-0.3x
g(x)=0.7x
in this case we are subtracting 30 percent of the cost from the cost of the purchase.
So in order to find a function that represents the cost of the purchase when first applying the 30% coupon and then the $35 coupon we will need to get a composite function f(g(x)). Which means we need to substitute function g(x) into the f(x) function so we get:
h(x)=f[g(x)]=(0.7x)-35
or:
h(x)=0.7x-35
We can prove this function works when plugging x=$190 in so we get:
h(190)=0.7(190)-35
h(190)=133-35
h(190)=98

Answer:
551.07 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
For radius r and height h, the total surface area of the cylinder is given by ...
SA = 2πr(r +h)
Here, the radius is 4.5 yards (half the diameter) and the height is 15 yards. That makes the surface area ...
SA = 2(3.14)(4.5 yd)(4.5 +15 yd) = 551.07 yd²

Answer:
C. ±4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
25x² = 16
25x² - 16 = 16 - 16
25x² - 16 = 0
25x² + 20x - 20x - 16 = 0
(25x² + 20x) + (- 20x - 16) = 0
5x(5x + 4) - 4(5x + 4) = 0
(5x - 4)(5x + 4) = 0
5x - 4 =0
5x + 4 = 0
