What is 832.248 rounded to the nearest tenth? A. 830 B. 832.2 C. 832.25 D. 832.3

1 answer:

4 0

Hi there.

To start, we have to understand where the ten the place is.

Hint: it's 1 place behind the decimal point.

Now we need to know what numbers behind the tenths place make it round up or down.

If the number behind it is 4 or under, round down.

5 & up, round up.

In this case, 830.248 has 2 numbers behind the decimal, so we have to round those THEN the 2 in the tenths place.

830.25 to 830.3

Your answer is D. 830.3

I know this was lengthy, sorry. Just wanted to explain :p

Answer: 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the lengths of AB, BC, and CA

AB = $\sqrt{(4-(-1))^{2} + (-1-4)^{2} }$ = 5 $\sqrt{2}$ ≈ 7.1

BC = $\sqrt{(0-(-1))^{2} + (-3-4)^{2} }$ = 5 $\sqrt{2}$ ≈ 7.1

CA = $\sqrt{(0-4)^{2} + (-3-(-1))^{2} }$ = 2 $\sqrt{5}$ ≈ 4.5

7.1 + 7.1 + 4.5 = 18.7

Answer:

It is an example of an empirical probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical probability, also called experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of outcomes in which a specified event occurs to the total number of trials, not in a theoretical sample space but in an actual experiment.

Theoretical probability is probability that is determined on the basis of reasoning.

It is evident that the probability in the question was arrived at after the outcome of 14 days of whether Jerry Gergich spilled his lunch on himself or not.

It's an actual result of an experiment, hence the 12/14 = 0.86 = 86% that he spills his lunch on himself tomorrow.

Hope this Helps!!!

In a certain lottery, you must select 5 numbers (in any order) out of 26 correctly to win. a. How many ways can 5 numbers be

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

a. 7893600

$b.\ \dfrac{1}{26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 26 numbers out of which 5 numbers are to be chosen.

Here repetition is not allowed.

For each of the 5 cases, the total number of possibilities will keep on decreasing by 1.

1st case, number of possibilities = 26

2nd case, number of possibilities = 25

3rd case, number of possibilities = 24

4th case, number of possibilities = 23

5th case, number of possibilities = 22

a. Total number of possibilities = 26 $\times$ 25 $\times$ 24 $\times$ 23 $\times$ 22 = <em>7893600</em>

b. Probability of winning by choosing one number:

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as: $P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}$

Number of favorable cases = 1

Total number of cases = 26

So, required probability:

$P(E) = \dfrac{1}{26}$

So, the answers are:

a. 7893600

$b.\ \dfrac{1}{26}$
