Pi is irrational. This means that as the extent of this number is infinite, therefore any numbers present in this number for an unspecified amount of time are also considered infinite. However, this is not necessarily the case. Consider that pi could go on forever, but after the billionth digit, for example, there would be no 3's.
This could easily be the case, but we would never know for certain, because it doesn't matter how many digits we discover not to be 3's, the next digit could always be any number, including a 3.
However, there are exactly digits, and provided these digits are positioned randomly throughout the number, (which is what irrational means) there is a 1 in 10 chance of the next digit being a 3. This also means that in any given sample of consecutive digits of pi, 1/10 of the digits are likely to be a 3. The bigger the sample, the closer to 10% that the number of 3's will be. So if we take a million digits of pi, we can estimate that approximately 100,000 of them would be 3's. We can check this estimate by looking at how many threes there really are: 100,230 3's according to various sources.
We will never know because pi never ends so there might be a lot of threes in pi but we will never know.

What is the answer for 4y-4 plus 3a plus 7-6a-4?
4y - 4 + 3s + 7 - 6a - 4 = 0 4y + 3s + 7 - 6a - 4 = 4 4y + 3s - 6a - 4 = 4 -7 4y + 3s -6a = 4 - 7 + 4 4y + 3s - 6a = -3 + 4 4y + 3s - 6a = 1 y + 3s - 6a = 1/4 y = -3s + 6a + 1/4 3s = -y + 6a + 1/4 s = -1/3y + 6a + 1/4 -6a = -1/3y + a + 1/4 -a = -1/3y x 1/6 + a + 1/4 x 1/6 a = 1/18y - 1 - 1/24 a = 1/18y - 25/24

How can Pi go on forever?
pi can go on forever because it is just like having 10 divided by 3. the answer would be 3.33 recurring. this is because no matter how long you go into the 3s', you'll never reach when the answer is 10. the amount of 3s' you have are the amounts of 9s' you'll have after the 9.

How many decimal places has pi?
Pi has an infinite amount of decimal places (that means that the numbers go on and on, into infinity) a more basic example of this is 10 divided by 3. The answer is 3.33333333... and the 3s will go on forever if you try to write all of them down.
