Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)

Mathematics
1 answer:

The approximation of -8 plus the square root of 20 is given by:

-3.5.

<h3>How a number is rounded to the nearest tenth?</h3>

To round a number to the nearest tenth, it will have only one decimal digit, and the rule is as follows:

  • If the second decimal digit is less than 5, the first decimal digit remains constant.
  • If the second decimal digit is of 5 or greater, one is added to the first decimal digit.

The square root of 20 is given by:

sqrt(20) = 4.47.

7 > 5, hence, rounded to the nearest tenth:

sqrt(20) = 4.5.

Then:

-8 + 4.5 = -3.5.

Which is the approximation.

Murljashka [212]
<h3>Answer:  The flagpole is <u>16 feet tall</u></h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

The small markings for the angles in the diagram help us see how the angles pair up and how those pairs are congruent.

The square angle markers indicate we have 90 degree angles (aka right angles). That's one pair of congruent angles.

The other pair are the angles marked with small curves. We don't need to worry about the angle measure of these. All we care about is we have a second congruent pair of angles.

Having 2 sets of congruent angles allows us to use the AA (angle angle) similarity theorem.

The similar triangles allow us to set up the proportion below and isolate x.

-------------------

Let's solve for x.

6/x = 4.5/12

6*12 = x*4.5

72 = 4.5x

4.5x = 72

x = 72/(4.5)

x = 16

The flagpole is 16 feet tall.

This is somewhere between a 1 and 2 story building in terms of height.
