Question

A calculator displays the following number in its display: 0.37 which does not fill the display screen. Is this enough to determine whether this number is rational or irrational? In at least one complete sentence, explain why.

hintHint:

Hint:
A rational number is a type of real number, which is in the form of p/q where q is not equal to zero. For a decimal number, if a decimal expansion is a terminating decimal then it is a rational number and if a decimal expansion is non-terminating but a repeating decimal then it is also a rational number but if a decimal expansion is a non-repeating and non-terminating decimal then it is an irrational number.
 

The correct answer is: YES a rational number.


    The screen of the calculator shows 0.37 on the screen and it does not fill the screen. It indicates that the 0.37 is a terminating decimal number because it has no digits after its hundredth place. So, the number can be converted into a fraction and can be represented in p/q form.
    Final Answer:
    As the number shown on the screen of the calculator can be converted into p/q form. Hence, the number will be a rational number.

    A linear function consists of one independent variable and one dependent variable. 'y' is the dependent variable, while 'x' is the independent variable. In economics, the linear function is popular. It is appealing because it is straightforward and straightforward mathematical. Moreover, it has numerous useful applications. For example, linear functions have graphs that are straight lines.
    A linear function's domain and range are typically a set of real numbers. However, there is one exception: if the function is constant (for example, f(x) = 2), the range is constrained to that constant.
