Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have a repeating decimal it doesn't matter who many decimal digits there are. Most repeating decimals I have encountered end up converting into a fraction that has a denominator of 9.

Hope This Helps :)

Answer:

It depends

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on what the repeating decimal is. For instance if the decimal is a repeating 8 then you only have to use one digit. If, however, it is something like .673673673 going on forever you just need however many until it loops again. In this case you would need three, because that is how long the loop is.

Which is the endpoint of a ray? point R point S point T point U

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

point S

Step-by-step explanation:

The end point of each ray given is point S, as the definition of the ray states that there is only one end point, and the other continues indefinitely. Technically, if you use all the others as a start point, they also work as rays, but because S is the start point of all lines, S is the safer answer.
