The units of the first number are "dollars." The second number has no apparent units, so we'll consider it a "pure number". This means the product will have the units of "dollars."
The two numbers together have 2+1=3 digits to the right of the decimal point(s). This means the final product will have 3 digits to the right of the decimal point. Since one of the factors is "dollars," it seems likely the result will need to be rounded to cents (2 decimal places). We'll provide the answer both ways (with 3 and with 2 decimal places.)
With these preliminaries out of the way, we have the problem of multiplying
... 79 × 37
There are numerous methods taught for finding this product. In the end, they all amount to multiplying every digit in one number by every digit in the other number and adding the results with appropriate place values. Several methods use 2-dimensional tables or arrays in their process. Here, we will use text on a line.
... 79 × 37 = (70 +9) × (30 +7)
... = 70×30 + 9×30 + 70×7 + 9×7
... = 2100 + 270 +490 + 63
... = 2100 +760 +63
... = 2860 +63
... = 2923
Putting the decimal point 3 places from the right, and adding the dollar sign gives our product:
... $0.79 × 3.7 = $2.923 ≈ $2.92
Answer:
40,000,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Answers:
- C) Factored form
- C) Standard form
- D) The y intercept is -8
- B) Two solutions: x = -5 or x = 5
- B) Apply square root to both sides
=========================================
Explanations:
- For problems 1 and 2, there's not much to say other than you'll just have to memorize those terms. Standard form is ax^2+bx+c in general. The exponents count down 2,1,0. Factored form is where we have two or more factors multiplying with each other. Think of something like 21 = 7*3 showing that 7 and 3 are factors of 21.
- For problem 3, the y intercept is the last value. It's the constant value. Plug in x = 0 and you'll get y = -8 as a result. The y intercept always occurs when x = 0.
- In problem 4, we apply the square root to both sides to get x = -5 or x = 5. The plus or minus is needed. This is because (-5)^2 = 25.
- In problem 5, we apply the square root to both sides to undo the squaring operation.
The solution is: 252. 14x18
