$x=0.8\overline{3}\\ 10x=8.\overline{3}\\ 100x=83.\overline{3}\\\\ 100x-10x=83.\overline{3}-8.\overline{3}\\ 90x=75\\ x=\dfrac{75}{90}=\dfrac{5}{6}$

There are a couple of different approaches you can use for this. Here's one.

1. Determine how many digits repeat. (There is just one repeating digit.)

2. Call your number x. Multiply x by 10 to the power of the number of digits found in step 1.

$x = 0.8\overline{3}\\10^{1}x=8.3\overline{3}$

3. Subtract the original number, then solve for x.

$10x-x=9x=8.3\overline{3}-0.8\overline{3}=7.5\\\\x=\dfrac{7.5}{9}=\dfrac{5}{6}$

If you recognize that 0.333... (repeating) is 1/3, then you know that 0.0333... (repeating) is 1/10×1/3 = 1/30. Add that to 0.8 = 4/5 and you get

... 4/5 + 1/30 = 24/30 + 1/30 = 25/30 = 5/6

Ursula Works At A Print Shop. She Uses A Printer That Can Print 12 Pages Per Minute. Yesterday She Started Printing Flyers For A

BigorU [14]

Answer:

10:30 am.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Ursula uses a printer that can print 12 pages per minute.

Ursula started printing flyer for an order yesterday. Today at 8 am she continued working on the order, and by 9 a.m. she had 420 flyers for the order completed. The order was to print 1500 pages.

Let us find the number of pages left to print.

$\text{Number of the pages left to print}=1500-420$

$\text{Number of the pages left to print}=1080$

To find the time it will take to print 1080 pages we will divide number of pages left to print by number of pages printed per minute.

$\text{Time it will take to print 1080 pages}=\frac{1080\text{pages}}{\frac{\text{12 pages}}{\text{minute}}}}$

$\text{Time it will take to print 1080 pages}=\frac{1080\text{pages}}{12}\times \frac{\text{minute}}{\text{page}}}$

$\text{Time it will take to print 1080 pages}=90\text{ minutes}$

90 minutes will be 1.5 hours , so 1.5 hours after 9 am will be 10:30 am. Therefore, the job was finished at 10:30 am.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

c. A two-tailed test should be performed since the alternative hypothesis states that the parameter is not equal to the hypothesized value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p1 be the average score on a final exam who texted on a regular basis during the lectures for a particular class

And p2 be the average score on a final exam who did not texted at all during the lectures for a particular class

According to the Cameron's point of interest, null and alternative hypotheses are:

$H_{0}:$ p1 = p2

$H_{a}:$ p1 ≠ p2

Two tailed test should be performed since the alternative hypothesis states that the parameter is not equal to the hypothesized value.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Extrema: relative minimum (1.25,-3.25), relative maximums (3.25,10) and (0,0)

Zeros: (0,0), (2,0), and (4,0)

End behavior: As x approaches infinity, the function approaches negative infinity. As x approaches negative infinity, the function approaches negative infinity.

Intervals of increase and decrease: increasing on (-∞, 0) and (1.25, 3.25), decreasing on (0, 1.25) and (3.25, ∞)

Positive and negative intervals: positive on (2, 4), negative on (-∞, 0), (0, 2), and (4, ∞)
