i need help with my problem... Convert 8.132132132... to a rational expression in the form of a over b where b ≠ 0. answers are 8 and 132 over 99 8 and 132 over 999 8 1321 over 9999 8 and 999 over 132
First u would need to do this :x=8.132132132,the multiply by 1000 and get 1000x=8132.132132132,then subtract and ya got yo answer
bro i really am confused right now
why tho?ok explain to me what parts confuse u and i will break the down for ya
im just started this online class and its harder than the work from my normal school i dont understand anything
ok
give me two minutes and we can start
thanks for helping me
ok do u know what a rational number is?
yes
exsplain
just a couple words the best way u can
ok
isnt it like a number but its not a full one like as in 3.23
u kinda got it
sorry if im being confusing i just started learning all of this stuff like a week ago before that i just started to divide decimals
its ok
A rational expression is simply a quotient of two polynomials.
A number that can be made by dividing two integers
umm to be honest i dont know what a polynomails is
it means an expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms that contain different powers of the same variable(s).
ok
these numbers can come in differnt forms
\[\frac{ p }{ ?q}\]
or like this
2.78
ok
give me one moment
ok np
ok now im gonna tell u how to solve your problem
ok
first u wanna see that x=8.132132132
ok
now u wanna multipy 8.132132132 X 1000
ok
u can take your time of use a caculator
*or
thats 8.132132132000
yes
oh no wait its 8132.132132
right
mhm
now u wanna subtract a/b from that answer
a/b?
ok
so like u didnt learn this stuff?
no
:/
they didnt even post assesments about it/
nope
alright,. A/B tests consist of a randomized experiment with two variants
ok
ok now subtract
im sorry for wasting ur time but i have to leave
Ok i wish i could have taught u more,hopfully u learn how to do this and it goes great
have a good day
you to
