Question

1. Gerard needs one-half of a point to get a B- in math. What rational number can be used to represent the number of points needed for Gerard to go an B- ?

0.5 or 1/2
0 or none
1 or one

Answer 1

Are you sure

Answer 2

So to would b a

Answer 3

Sorry would be answer A

Answer 4

Place the following numbers in order as they would appear on the number line, left to right-3.0, .5, -1.06, 2.36

.5, -1.06, 2.36, -3.0

-1.06, 3.0 ,2.36, .5
-3.0, -1.06, .5, 2.36

Answer 5

3. Find the sum of p and q if p = 5/4 and q = - 9/4 Reduce your answer to lowest terms.

14/4 = 32/4

O - 4/4 = - 1

- 14/4 = - 3 2/4 = - 3 1/2

Answer 6

So -4/4= -1 is the answer

Answer 7

9. Which context describes a difference of rational numbers? *

A soccer player makes it to his OWN goal on a play.

A soccer player loses ground and ends up at his opponents goal.

The home team's score increased during the game.

Answer 8

1/2

Answer 9

Yes, I am sure. The rational number that can be used to represent the number of points needed for Gerard to get a B- is 1/2.

Answer 10

I apologize for the confusion. You are correct, the rational number that can be used to represent the number of points needed for Gerard to get a B- is also 1/2.

Answer 11

Apologies for the confusion. You are correct. The rational number that can be used to represent the number of points needed for Gerard to get a B- is 0.5 or 1/2, which corresponds to answer choice A.

Answer 12

The correct order from left to right on the number line is:
-3.0, -1.06, .5, 2.36.

Answer 13

To find the sum of p and q, we can add their values:
p = 5/4
q = -9/4

p + q = (5/4) + (-9/4)

To add fractions, we need a common denominator, which in this case is 4:
p + q = (5/4) + (-9/4) = (5 - 9) / 4 = -4/4 = -1

So, the sum of p and q is -1, which is already in its lowest terms.

Answer 14

Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. You are correct.

To find the sum of p and q:
p = 5/4
q = -9/4

p + q = (5/4) + (-9/4) = (5 - 9) / 4 = -4/4 = -1

So, the sum of p and q is -1 in lowest terms. Thank you for pointing out the error.

Answer 15

The context that describes a difference of rational numbers is: A soccer player loses ground and ends up at his opponent's goal.
