Answer:

The largest possible number of overseas visitors would be 11,640,000.

The smallest possible number of overseas visitors would be 11,550,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 11,600,000 was rounded off to the nearest 100,000.

This means that either 0 or 1 was added to the figure with place value of 100,000.

It would be zero (0) in the case where the number after the 100,000th placed value number is lower than 5 and it would be one (1) in the case where the number after the 100,000th placed value is greater than or equal to 5.

Therefore, the largest possible number of overseas visitors would be 11,640,000.

The smallest possible number of overseas visitors would be 11,550,000.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given parameters, we have:

n = 9 i.e. the length of each security numbers

r = 2 i.e. 2 security numbers

Required

In 513 security numbers, 2 must have matching zeros

To do this, we make use of Pigeonhole principle.

First, we calculate the number of all security numbers not having matching zeros.

Each of the 9 digits can be selected in 2 ways.

2 ways implies that each digit is either 0 or not

So, total selection is:

Total = 2^9

Total = 512

Apply Pigeonhole principle

The principle states that: suppose there are n items in m containers, where n>m, then there is at least one container that contains more than 1 item.

This means that if there are 512 security number without matching zeros, then there is 1 (i.e. 512 + 1) with matching zeros.

512 + 1 = 513

A living room will be painted with white trim. The ratio of the blue surface area between the walls is 1:10. Of 2 gallons of blu
bija089 [108]

Answer:

20 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The living room is made up of white trim and blue surface area between the walls. Since the ratio of the blue surface area between the walls to the white trim is given by 1 : 10.

Also 2 gallons of blue paints are used for the walls, let x represent the number of white paint used in gallons. Hence:

number of white paint in gallons = [1 / (1 + 10)] * total number of paints = 1 / 11 * total number of paints

2 = 1/11  * total number of paints used

total number of paints  = 22 gallons

number of white paint (x) = [10 / (1 + 10)] * total number of paints = 1 / 11 * total number of paints

x = 10/11 * 22

x = 20 gallons

Therefore 20 gallons of white paint was used
