To start, we will shift the non-repeating segment of the decimal to the left side by dividing by a power of 10.

Then we will assign a variable to represent the value and also shift the repeating segment to the left.

Essentially, the concept here is that we can denote the repeating portion with a variable, let's say "x", and move forward with the calculation;

\bf 0.580\overline{80}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\qquad \textit{now, let's say }x= 5.80\overline{80}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf thus\qquad \begin{array}{llll}
100\cdot x&=&580.80\overline{80}\\
&&575+5.80\overline{80}\\
&&575+x
\end{array}\qquad \implies 100x=575+x
\\\\\\
99x=575\implies x=\cfrac{575}{99}\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{\cfrac{5.80\overline{80}}{10}}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{10}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\quad \frac{575}{99}\quad }{\frac{10}{1}}\implies \cfrac{575}{99}\cdot \cfrac{1}{10}\implies \cfrac{575}{990}\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{115}{198}}

you can verify that using your calculator.

Graph a system of equations to solve log (−5.6x + 1.3) = −1 − x. Round to the nearest tenth. From the least to the greatest, the
zzz [9080]

Response:

  • Refer to the attached graph
  • x₁ ≈ - 2.1
  • x₂ ≈ 0.2

Clarification:

To analyze log (−5.6x + 1.3) = −1 − x visually, graph these equations on the same coordinate system:

  • Equation 1: y = log (5.6x + 1.3)
  • Equation 2: y = - 1 - x

The first equation can be graphed using these characteristics of logarithmic functions:

  • Domain: values must be positive ⇒ -5.6x + 1.3 > 0 ⇒ x < 13/56 (≈ 0.23)

  • Range: all real values (- ∞, ∞)
  • x-intercept:

        log ( -5.6x + 1.3) = 0 ⇒ -5.6x + 1.3 = 1 ⇒ x = 0.3/5.6 ≈ 0.054

  • y-intercept:

       x = 0 ⇒ log (0 + 1.3) = log (1.3) ≈ 0.11

  • Choose additional values to create a table:

        x            log (-5.6x + 1.3)

        -1           0.8

        -2           1.1

        -3           1.3

  • This graph is shown in the attached image: it's represented by the red curve.

Graphing the second equation is simpler as it forms a straight line: y = - 1 - x

  • slope, m = - 1 (the coefficient of x)
  • y-intercept, b = - 1 (the constant term)
  • x-intercept: y = 0 = - 1 - x ⇒ x = - 1
  • This graph is indicated by the blue line in the image.

The resolution to the equations corresponds to the points where the two graphs intersect. The graphing method thus allows you to determine the x coordinates of these intersection points. Ordered from smallest to largest, rounded to the nearest tenth, we have:

  • x₁ ≈ - 2.1
  • x₂ ≈ 0.2

Mindy, a local artist, sells a piece of art at the pizza shop for $15, and the shop takes 15 percent commission. Instead of rece
lawyer [9240]
To tackle this problem, we first need to ascertain the commission taken by the pizza shop and how much money belongs to Mindy. We know that Mindy sells her artwork for $15, and the pizza shop retains a 15% commission. Therefore, the commission is calculated as (15/100) * 15, which equals 2.25 dollars. This means the pizza shop deducts $2.25 from each art sale made by Mindy. Consequently, the amount Mindy receives is (15 - 2.25), resulting in $12.75. Since Mindy opts not for cash but instead chooses a pizza valued at $12, including a 5% sales tax, it seems she benefits by $0.75 plus the pizza worth $12. Therefore, this arrangement appears fair for Mindy. Meanwhile, the pizza shop also makes an additional $2.25 from this transaction, making it equitable for both Mindy and the shop owner.

Option D is indeed correct, as it ensures that the post's point is equidistant from the ground, maintaining a perpendicular angle at two points on the surface.

A spring stretches by 21.0 cm when a 135 n object is attached. what is the weight of a fish that would stretch the spring by 49
Inessa [9000]
When the stretch is proportional to the weight, it can be expressed as:
weight/(49 cm) = (135 N)/(21 cm)
weight = (49/21)×135 N
weight = 315 N

The fish's weight would be 315 N.

A box contains 288 sugar cubes. You open the top of the box and count 12 cubes across the front and 6 cubes along a side. How ma
Zina [9171]
Hello!

To determine how many cubes are present in one layer,

multiply the amount across by the side length.

12 * 6 = 72

Then divide by the total number of cubes

288 / 72 = 4

There are 4 layers

The result is 4

I hope this is helpful!
