Answer:

0.02 (rational)

2 (rational)

Square root of 2 (irrational)

Square root 1/2 (irrational)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers are numbers that can be in form of a/b such that a and b are not zeros. In other words, a and b are integers ranging from 1 to infinity.

Conversely, irrational numbers are numbers that are endless and are non repeating digits after decimal point.

Thus, from the questions above;

0.02 =   (2)/(100)  = rational \: number

2 =  (2)/(1)  = rational \: number

√(2)  = 1.41421356 = irrational \: number

\sqrt{ (1)/(2) }  = 0.70710678 = irrational \: number

take 1/2 of b and squaer it so (b/2)^2 would complete the square (sign doesn't matter becaus when squareing, sign goes positive)

A jar contains 24 coins: 10 quarters, 6 dimes, 2 nickels, and 6 pennies.What is the probability of randomly drawing _____ ?
1. a penny
2. a quarter
3. a coin that is not a penny

Answers

The probability of randomly drawing a penny is 6/24 or 1/4, since there are 6 pennies out of a total of 24 coins.

How to solve and What is Probability?

The probability of randomly drawing a quarter is 10/24 or 5/12, since there are 10 quarters out of a total of 24 coins. The probability of randomly drawing a coin that is not a penny is 18/24 or 3/4, since there are 18 coins that are not pennies out of a total of 24 coins.

Probability is the branch of mathematics that deals with measuring the likelihood or chance of an event or outcome occurring. It is expressed as a number between 0 and 1, where 0 represents an impossible event and 1 represents a certain event.

Probability theory is used to make predictions and informed decisions based on available data in various fields, including statistics, finance, engineering, and science.

It involves understanding and analyzing random events, and determining the likelihood of specific outcomes. Probability is an essential tool for decision-making in various applications, such as risk analysis, game theory, and quality control.

What is the doubling time of bacteria if you start with two bacteria and there are 128 bacteria after 3hrs?A) 15min
B) 30min
C) 45min
D) 1hr

Please explain step by step and how you got the answer. Thank you

Answers

Answer:

B) 30min

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with 2 and continue to multiply that by 2 until you get 128

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 2 = 16

16 x 2 = 32

32 x 2 = 64

64 x 2 = 128

Then start with what you think could be the right answer based on how many intervals there are.

You know it can't be 15 because there definitely isn't enough and you know its not 1hr because theres way more than 3.

So you're left with either B) 30min or C) 45min

It has to be B) 30min because there are 6 intervals and 30min goes into an hour twice, meaning that if every 2 intervals is an hour there are 3 hours.

A student bought a pair of sunglasses in the USA.He paid $35.50
In England, an identical pair of sunglasses costs £26.99
The exchange rate is £1 = $1.42
In which country were the sunglasses cheaper, and by how much?

Answers

You almost have it!!!

all you do is multiply 26.99*1.42

this equals 38.33 dollars

35.50 is less than 38.33

thus, USA is cheaper than England.

Explain the steps necessary for solving the following equation. x^2-8x-20=0

Answers

First factor the equation
(x-10)(x+2) = 0
Then solve for (x-10) and (x+2)
x=10
x=-2
 (warning: this is quite long :P)
the steps are:

Looking at the expression x² +8x-20,we can see that the first coefficient is 1, the second coefficient is 8 and the last term is -20.
Now multiply the first coefficient (1) by the last term (-20) to get  (1)·(-20)=-20.
Now the question is: what two whole numbers multiply to -20 (the previous product).
factors of -20:
1,2,4,5,10,20
-1, -2, -4, -5, -10, -20
note: list the negative of each factor. This will allow us to find all possible combinations.
These factors pair up to multiply to -20.
1*(-20) = -20
2*(-10) = -20
4*(-5) = -20
(-1)*(20*) = -20
(-2)*(10* = -20
(-4)*(5) = -20
now let's add up each pair of factors to see if one pair adds to the middle coefficient:

first number        second number      sum

     1                           -20              1+(-20)=-19
   2                            -10              2+(-10)=-9
   4                            -5                4+(-5)= -1
 -1                            20                -1 +20= 19
 -2                              10              -2+10=8
  -4                            5                  -4+5=1

From the table above, we can see that the two numbers -2 and 10 multipy to -20 and add up to 8.
Now replace the middle term 8x with -2x+10x. Remember, -2 and 10 add up to 8. so this shows us that -2x+10x=8x.

x²+-2x+10x -20 Replace the second term 8x with -2x +10x.
(x²-2x)+(10x-20) Group the terms into two pairs.
x(x-2x)+(10x-20) Factor out the GCF x from the first group.

x(x-2)+10·(x-2) Factor out 10 from the second group. The goal of this step is to make the terms in the second parenthesis equal to the terms in the first parenthesis.

(x+10)·(x-2) Combine like terms. Or factor out thge common term x-2.
-----
ANSWER:

So, x² + 8·x -20 factors to (x+20)·(x-2.
In other words, x² + 8·x-20=(x+10)·(x-2)
