What is 3.242424... as a mixed number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  3 8/33

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the mixed-number equivalent of the repeating decimal 3.2424....

Repeating decimal

A repeating decimal fraction that starts at the decimal point can be converted to a ratio of integers by expressing the repeating digits over the same number of 9s.

Here, the two repeating digits "24" mean the fraction equivalent is ...

  0.2424... = 24/99 = 8/33

The mixed number equivalent of 3.2424... is 3 8/33.

__

Additional comment

If the repeating portion does not start at the decimal point, you can use the following technique to do the conversion.

Multiply the original number by 10^n, where n is the number of repeating digits.Subtract the original number from this product. Repeating digits should cancel to zeros.Divide this difference by (10^n) -1 and simplify the resulting fraction.

Effectively, this multiplies and divides the number by ((10^n) -1)/((10^n) -1). In the case here, that would be multiplication by 1 in the form 99/99.

  3.242424... × 99/99 = 321/99 = 3 8/33

The "321" will be manifested on a calculator as 320.99999.... If you multiply by (100 -1) with pencil and paper, you can see that you get ...

  324.2424... - 3.2424... = 321 . . . . . . repeating digits cancel

If the repeat starts somewhere else, you can still use the "fraction with equal number of 9s" technique, but with a multiplier:

  3.6242424... = 3.6 + 0.0242424 ... = 3.6 + (1/10)(24/99)

  = 36/10 + 8/330 = 3 103/165

Answer 2

3.242424... as a mixed number is [tex]\(3 \frac{8}{33}\)[/tex].

To express the repeating decimal 3.242424... as a mixed number, we can first write it as an infinite geometric series.

Let x = 3.242424.... Then, multiplying x by 100 gives 100x = 324.242424...

Now, subtract x from 100x:

100x - x = 324.242424... - 3.242424...

99x = 321

Now, solve for x:

[tex]\[ x = \frac{321}{99} \][/tex]

Now, express the fraction [tex]\(\frac{321}{99}\)[/tex]as a mixed number.

[tex]\[ \frac{321}{99} = 3 \frac{24}{99} \]\\Now, simplify the fraction:\[ \frac{24}{99} = \frac{8}{33} \][/tex]

So, 3.242424... as a mixed number is [tex]\(3 \frac{8}{33}\)[/tex].

What equation results from completing the square and then factoring x^2+16x =41

A. (x+8)^2 =57

B.(x+16)^2 =57

C. (x+8)^2 =105

D. (x+16)^2 =105

Answers

C

given x² + 16x = 41

to complete the square on this equation

since the coefficient of the x² term is 1

add (half the coefficient of the x-term )² to both sides

x² + 2(8)x + 64 = 41+ 64

(x + 8 )² = 105 → C


Answer:

Option C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

[tex]x^2+16x=41[/tex]

we have to find the equation results from completing the square.

For completing the square method, since the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] is 1 therefore we have to divide the coefficient of x by 2 and then squaring of that value adding on both sides of equation, we get

Here coefficient of x is 16 therefore square of half the number adding both sides

[tex]x^2+16x+64=41+64[/tex]

[tex]x^2+8x+8x+64=105[/tex]

Answers

D

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 0 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5 )

m = [tex]\frac{-5-0}{0-3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

line crosses y-axis at (0, - 5 ) hence c = - 5

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] x - 5 ← in slope-intercept form

the equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

rearrange slope-intercept form into standard form

multiply all terms by 3

3y = 5x - 15 ( subtract 3y and add 15 to both sides )

5x - 3y = 15 ← in standard form → D

Step-by-step explanation:

Courtney would like to buy a new ca in 4 years. It is estimated that a new car will cost her 25,000 and that she will get 13,000 for her used car provided she takes good care of it. Based on these estimates, what is the least amount she should save each month in order to pay cash for her new car?

Answers

4 years=48 months

A new car costs 25,000, but she will get 13,000 for her used car as long as she takes good car of it. If she takes good care of her used car and gets 13,000 for it, she will only need to save 12,000 total. We can divide 12,000 by 48 to find out how much Courtney should save minimum each month to afford her new car. 12,000/48=250

You can check to see if this is correct by multiplying 48*250=12,000. Paying 250 for each month of the 48 months will equal the $12,000 that Courtney needs.

Courtney needs to save at least $250 per month to afford her new car in 4 years.

I hope this helps :)

Courtney should save at least $250 per month for the next 4 years to be able to pay cash for the new car after considering the amount she'll receive from selling her used car.

Courtney needs to save money to buy a new car in 4 years. The estimated cost of the new car is $25,000, and she expects to get $13,000 for her used car. To find out the least amount she should save each month, we will subtract the expected amount from the sale of her used car from the cost of the new car, and then divide by the number of months in 4 years (48 months).

The calculation is as follows:

Total amount needed = Cost of New Car - Sale of Used Car
= $25,000 - $13,000
= $12,000

Monthly savings required = Total amount needed \/ Number of months
= $12,000 \/ 48
= $250

Therefore, Courtney should save at least $250 per month to pay cash for her new car in 4 years.

Answers

Policy value over 20 years = 125000

Per year, 125000/20=$6250

Look up premium table for age 40 and 45, the difference in total premium is C. $12,875.


Final answer:

To find the difference in total premium costs over 20 years for a whole life insurance policy at two age levels, calculate and subtract the total premium at each age.

Explanation:

To find the difference in total premium costs over 20 years for the whole life insurance policy at the two age levels, we need to calculate the total premium at each age and then subtract the two values.

For Angelo at age 40, the value of the policy is $125,000. Let's assume the premium rate is x. So, the total premium at age 40 is 20 * x. For Angelo at age 45, the value of the policy is still $125,000. Let's assume the premium rate is y. So, the total premium at age 45 is 15 * y. To find the difference in total premium costs over 20 years, subtract the total premium at age 45 from the total premium at age 40: 20 * x - 15 * y.

Therefore, the difference in total premium costs over 20 years for this policy at the two age levels is 20 * x - 15 * y.

Final answer:

To evaluate the expression {362-[6×3+(48÷2)×2]}+3(9+4), we need to follow the order of operations. After simplifying each part of the expression and performing the necessary operations, the final result is 287.

Explanation:

To evaluate the expression {362-[6×3+(48÷2)×2]}+3(9+4), we need to follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS. This acronym stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses: [6×3+(48÷2)×2].

Using the division rule, we have: [6×3+(24)×2].Next, we perform the multiplications: [18+48×2].Then, we simplify further: [18+96].The sum inside the parentheses is equal to 114. Therefore, the expression becomes {362-114}+3(9+4).Next, let's evaluate the expression inside the curly braces: {362-114}. This can be done by subtracting 114 from 362, resulting in 248.Finally, we have to evaluate the expression 3(9+4). Following the order of operations, we perform the addition inside the parentheses first: 3(13). Multiplying 3 by 13 gives us 39.

Now, we add the results of the two evaluated expressions: 248+39. This gives us a final result of 287.

Q##..15 Graph the equation. y= 4x - 3

Answers

Answer: Please, see the attached file.

Thanks.

Solution:

We can graph using the intercepts:

(1) y-intercept, when x=0

y=4x-3→y=4(0)-3→y=0-3→y=-3

Point=(x,y)=(0,-3)

(2) x-intercept, when y=0

y=4x-3→0=4x-3

Solving for x: Adding 3 both sides of the equation:

0+3=4x-3+3

3=4x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4:

3/4=4x/4

3/4=x

x=3/4=0.75

Point=(x,y)=(3/4,0)=(0.75,0)
