To round off a given number in decimals to one decimal place (1 dp), we simply take the figure right after the decimal and approximate the remaining after it. If the second number after the decimal is a significant number (5 and above) we make it 1 and add to the number right after the decimal. If its NOT a significant number, we simply disregard it. The solutions therefore are;
ANSWER:
Notice how the number in (1) becomes 0.7, after taking the next number (which is 9) and adding it as 1 to the number after the decimal (which is 6). The same applies to the number in (3).
Answer:
"associative"
Step-by-step explanation:
The associative property lets you change the grouping of terms of a sum or of a product.
___
For example, you can rewrite
(5 + 4·3) -2
as
5 + (4·3 -2)
but the associative property does NOT allow you to change the grouping to ...
(5 +4)·3 -2 . . . . . not a valid rewrite
Answer:
C. The mean is 111.9F and the median is 114.5F.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is 111.9 given that (105 + 113 + 122 + 121 + 116 + 118 + 107 + 93)/8 = 111.875 which can be rounded to 111.9 F.
Organizing the values we have:
[93, 105, 107, 113, 116, 118, 121, 122]
We find that the median is going to be between 113 and 116. Therefore:
(113 + 116) / 2 = 114,5
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
Answer:
A. -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function f(x) = x + 3 for x ≤ -1 and 2x - c for x > -1, for the function to be continuous, the right hand limit of the function must be equal to its left hand limit.
For the left hand limit;
The function at the left hand occurs at x<-1
f-(x) = x+3
f-(-1) = -1+3
f-(-1) = 2
For the right hand limit, the function occurs at x>-1
f+(x) = 2x-c
f+(-1) = 2(-1)-c
f+(-1) = -2-c
For the function f(x) to be continuous on the entire real line at x = -1, then
f-(-1) = f+(-1)
On equating both sides:
2 = -2-c
Add 2 to both sides
2+2 = -2-c+2
4 =-c
Multiply both sides by minus.
-(-c) = -4
c = -4
Hence the value of c so that f(x) is continuous on the entire real line is -4
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by writing out w in terms of x. After one year, there is 1.08*x dollars in the account. x dollars are then deposited, giving us a total of 1.08*x + x (normally we would simplify this to 2.08 but looking at the answers this is not a good idea.) Next, multiply by 1.08 to account for the 2nd year's interest. This brings to total to w = 1.08(1.08*x + x) = (1.08^2)*x + 1.08*x. Factoring out x, we are left with w = (1.08^2 + 1.08) * x. Dividing both sides by (1.08^2 + 1.08), we are left with x = w/(1.08^2 + 1.08) so the answer is d.
