Is 0.144 rational or irrational ?

1 answer:

4 0

Irrational numbers can be written as decimals but not as fractions.

0.144 is a decimal, but it can also be written as 18/125. So this is a rational number.

√0.144 is equal to 0.3794733192. It cannot be expressed into a fraction. So, this is an irrational number.

√0.0144 is equal to 3/25. So, this is a rational number.

I hope I was able to help you. Have a good day.

Paladinen [302]

The normal distribution curve is shown in the diagram below

The percentage of time that his commute time exceeds 61 minutes is equal to the area under the standard normal curve that lies to the RIGHT of X=61

Standardising X=61 to find z-score
 $z= \frac{61-45}{5} =3.2$

from the z-table
 $P(Z\ \textgreater \ 3.2) = 1 - P(Z\ \textless \ 3.2) = 1 - 0.9993 = 0.0007 = 0.07%$

The amount of rhubarb in the original recipe is 3 1/2 cups. Using what you know of whole numbers and what you know of fractions,

Alexxx [7]

The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2

You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
