Answer:

no its a rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational Numbers A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio.  

That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers.

irrational not expressible as a ratio of two integers, and having an infinite and nonrecurring expansion when expressed as a decimal.

Examples of irrational numbers are the number π and the square root of 2.

use the point-slope equation to identify the slope and the coordinates of a point on the line y – 4 = 1/2 (x – 1). the slope of
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The slope of the line is \dfrac{1}{2} and a point on the line is (1, 4)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The general point slope of line passing through (x_1,y_1) and having slope as m.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The given equation of the straight line,

y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-1)

Comparing this to the general equation we get the point as (1, 4) and slope as \dfrac{1}{2}

In April and May of 2011, the Pew Research Center surveyed cell phone users about voice calls and text messaging. They surveyed
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

D. We can be 95% confident that the proportion of all cell phone users who use text messaging is between 73.1% and 76.9%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interpretation of a confidence interval of level x% means that we are x% sure that the interval contains the true mean of the population.

In this problem, we have that:

The population are all the cell phone users.

The 95% confidence interval is (73.1%, 76.9%).

Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of the 95% confidence interval?

D. We can be 95% confident that the proportion of all cell phone users who use text messaging is between 73.1% and 76.9%.

Elsa tries to solve the following equation, and determines there is no solution. Is she correct? Explain.
Vlad [161]
Elsa's answer is incorrect since there is a solution of the given equation. In the given logarithmic problem, we need to simplify the problem by transposing log2(3x+5) in the opposite side. The equation will now be log2x-log2(3x+5)=4. Using properties of logarithm, we further simplify the problem into a new form log (2x/6x+10)=4.  Then transform the equation into base form 10^4=(2x/6x+10) and proceed in solving for x value which is equal to 1.667.

You add 11/4 tablespoons of olive oil for every 3/2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar to make 34 tablespoons of bread dip. How muc
Dafna11 [192]

Hey there!

Let's write this as a ratio/proportion.

\frac{olive oil}{balsamic vinegar} = \frac{2.75}{1.5}

The sum of this basic ratio is 4.25.

To figure out how much of each we have for 34, we divide this 34 by 4.25, our sum of the two ingredients. This will give us a factor we can multiply our two ingredient measurements by.

34/4.25=8

Now, we multiply our two ingredients by eight.

2.75(8)=22

1.5(8)=12

Note that these two add up to make 34 tablespoons.

Therefore, we have...

22 tablespoons of olive oil and 12 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar were used in the 34 tablespoons of bread dip.

I hope this helps! Have a great day! :)
