As a fraction 3.83 (3 repeating )is 3x 83/99
what is repeating decimals ?
Repeating decimal values are created by fraction that do not divide evenly. when converting a repeating decimal to a fraction we can ignore the units in the start as the units remain unchanged ,which allows us to convert our decimal values and then the units back in afterward.
so ,
To convert the 3.83 to a fraction , we ignore the units as they will remain units.
we then set up one equation of our unknown x being equal to 0.83333......and another that is 100 times greater , 100x = 83.33333....
by subtracting these two equation from each other we can then divide by the coefficient of x to create our fraction .
10x=83.3333...
x= 0.83333...
99x = 82.5
we now divide both sides by 99 to isolate x:
99x=82.5
99x/99=82.5/99
x= 82.5/99
x = 82.5 x10/99x10
x = 825/990
x = 165/198
we cannot simplify this fraction any more
finally we add back the 3 units we set aside at the beginning ,making our fraction 3x165/198
so , the fraction 3.83 is 3x 83/99

can someone explain functions to me please I don't get it.
Functions are special relaionships that connect an element of one set of numbers, with one element in another set of numbers.
The most comon way to represent functions is connecting elements of a set of Real numbers called the "Domain", to another number in a set called the Range (and whose elements are identified with the letter "y")
Using math operations one can relate x values with y values via an equation of the type:
y = 2 x - 5
where you have a mathematical form of that relationship, that allows you to know given the value of one member (x) of the Domain what number is associated with it in the Range.
For example, try the number x = 0
and see which y number connects with it:
y = 2 (0) - 5 = 0 - 5 = -5
Then you say that the number 0 in the Domain connects with the number -5 in the Range.
This relationship can also be given with coordinate pairs of the form:
(x, y) mentioning in the first position (where the x is), the number in the Domain that connects to the "y" number of the Range). The y goes in the second place. so for example in the relationship we found above, x = 0 connects with y=-5, you would have a shortcut way to write it as the pair: (0, -5) that tells you which x connects with which y.
The functions can also be given in graph form by plotting the relationship between members of the Domain and the Range on the plane. Graphing a point in the plane location that corresponds to the connected x and y values (like you do in the game "battlefield" when you locate ships on the board.
I know this is very general, but hopefully you got the idea ofa function as a special relationship between numbers, and that they can be expressed in different fashions.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (2, 12) and (4, 3). Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or integer.
The slope of the line passing through the coordinates (2, 12) and (4, 3) is -9/2.
Slope is simply expressed as change in y over the change in x.
Slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ )/( x₂ - x₁ )
Given the data in the question;
Point 1( 2, 12 )
x₁ = 2y₁ = 12Point 2( 4,3 )
x₂ = 4y₂ = 3To determine the slope, plug the given x and y values into the slope formula and simplify.
Slope m = ( y₂ - y₁ )/( x₂ - x₁ )
Slope m = ( 3 - 12 )/( 4 - 2 )
Slope m = ( -9 )/( 2 )
Slope m = -9/2
Therefore, the slope of the line is -9/2.

In the designers proposal, they state that the paths EC and DB each measure 100 feet. They also state that the garden will require 140 feet of hedges. Are their numbers reasonable?
We are given a circle whose diamter is 100 feet. To find out if 140 feet of hedges will fit into it given all the oother dimensions, we will have to calculate the lengths of the chords that correspond to the hedges.
First, let us solve for AE.
[tex]\begin{gathered} chord=2r\sin\theta \\ \\ AE=100\sin50 \\ AE=76.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]We used θ = 50 degrees because we know that the measurement of the arc is equal to the measurement of the central angle.
Now, to solve for the length of ED, we need to find out the measurement of the central angle that subtend it.
Segments AD and EC intersect, thus the following equation must be true for the angles that they form and the arcs that they subtend:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m\angle EXA=\frac{1}{2}(m\hat{AE}+m\hat{DC}) \\ \\ 70=\frac{1}{2}(50+m\hat{DC}) \\ \\ 140=(50+m\hat{DC}) \\ \\ 90=m\hat{DC} \end{gathered}[/tex]Again, using the formula for finding the length of a chord, we can now solve for the length of ED.
[tex]\begin{gathered} chord=2r\sin(\theta) \\ \\ ED=100\sin90 \\ ED=100 \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally, we need to calculate the length of BC. But we know that BC = ED because the diameters meet at a 90-degree angle and so the chords that they subtend are all congruent. You may also think of ∠BYC as being vertical to ∠EYD. So BC should be equal to ED either way. BC = 100
So the total length of the hedges is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} AE+ED+BC \\ =76.6+100+100 \\ =276.6ft \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the numbers given by the designers are not reasonable. 140 feet is too short for the hedges.

and we want to compute
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty \gamma_n = 108 \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(\frac23\right)^{n-1} - 18 \sum_{n=1}^\infty n \left(\frac23\right)^{n-1}[/tex]
Recall the sum of an infinite geometric series with common ratio [tex]|r|<1[/tex] converges to
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty r^{n-1} = \frac1{1-r}[/tex]
so that
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(\frac23\right)^{n-1} = \frac1{1-\frac23} = 3[/tex]
For the remaining sum, we can use the method shown in question [24494877] to compute
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty nr^{n-1} = \frac1{(1-r)^2}[/tex]
which gives
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty n \left(\frac23\right)^{n-1} = \frac1{\left(1-\frac23\right)^2} = 9[/tex]
Then the infinite sum of the terms of γ converges to
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty \gamma_n = 108 \cdot 3 - 18 \cdot 9 = \boxed{162}[/tex]

What is the equation of the line that passes through Point (6, 0) and has a Slope of -1/2.
I know that it is f(x) = -1/2x + 3 but I need a step by step and clear explanation.
Answer:
[tex]y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the attached images for the full solution.
Note that when y is replaced with f(x), it is known as a function instead of an equation.
2. The admission fee at a small fair is $2.50 for children and $4.00 for adults. On a certain day, 2400 people enter the fair and $7140 is collected. How many children and how many adults attended?
Given:
a.) The admission fee at a small fair is $2.50 for children and $4.00 for adults.
b.) On a certain day, 2400 people enter the fair and $7140 is collected.
Let,
x = total number of children
y = total number of adults
Let's generate two equations based on the given scenario:
EQUATION 1: Total number of children and adults entered the fair.
[tex]\text{ x + y = }2400[/tex]EQUATION 2: Total money collected from the admission.
[tex]\text{ 2.5x + 4y = }$7140$[/tex]We will be using the substitution method. We get,
[tex]\text{ x + y = }2400[/tex][tex]\text{ y = }2400\text{ - x}[/tex]Substitute to Equation 2:
[tex]\text{ 2.5x + 4y = }$7140$[/tex][tex]\text{ 2.5x + 4(}2400\text{ - x) = }$7140$[/tex][tex]\text{ 2.5x + 9600 - 4x = }$7140$[/tex][tex]\text{ 2.5x - 4x = }$7140$\text{ - 9600 }[/tex][tex]\text{ -1.5x }=\text{ }-2,460[/tex][tex]\text{ }\frac{\text{-1.5x}}{-1.5}\text{ }=\text{ }\frac{-2,460}{-1.5}[/tex][tex]\text{ x }=\text{ }1,640\text{ children}[/tex]Therefore, 1,640 children went to the fair.
For the adults,
x + y = 2400
1,640 + y = 2400
y = 2400 - 1,640
y = 760 adults
In summary: 1,640 children and 760 adults went to the fair.
