How do you round an irrational number to the nearest hundredth

1 answer:

MariettaO [177]3 years ago

To round to the nearest cent, nearest penny, or nearest hundredth, you will need to locate the hundredths place. Then look at the digit to the right. If it is 5 or above, the number in the hundredths place will be increased by 1 and all the rest of the numbers after it are dropped. If the number is 4 or below, you leave the digit in the hundredths place alone and drop all the rest of the numbers after.

<span>Just remember, if the problem asks you to round to the nearest hundredth, make the end result look like money, meaning only two digits after the decimal point!</span>

Which of the following is the inverse of y=3x?

shtirl [24]

Answer-

<em>The inverse of $y=3^x$ is </em>

$\boxed{\boxed{y=\log_3 x}}$

<u>Solution-</u>

The given function is,

$y=3^x$

We can get the inverse by interchanging he variable x and y among themselves and then separating each variables.

So in the inverse would be,

$\Rightarrow x=3^y$

Taking log of both sides,

$\Rightarrow \log x=\log 3^y$

As,

$\log a^b=b\times \log a$

Applying the same,

$\Rightarrow \log x=y\times \log 3$

$\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{\log x}{\log 3}$

As,

$\log_b a=\dfrac{\log a}{\log b}$

Applying the same,

$\Rightarrow y=\log_3 x$

Therefore, the inverse of $y=3^x$ is $y=\log_3 x$ .

Direct Variation, Constant of Proportionality, and Constant Rate of Change all represent linear proportional relationships.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

y = dependent variable

k = constant of proportionality or constant rate of change

x = independent variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation, $y = mx$ represents a direct variation showing a proportional relationship between variable y and variable x.

y represents the dependent variable

k represents the constant of proportionality or constant rate of change

x represents the independent variable
