To estimate this question, you can round the numbers to be compatible, to make it easier for yourself. The numbers should be able to be divided cleanly, as this is an estimate, not the actual problem solving. You could, for example, round 341 to 300, and 28 to 30, and divide them to get 10.
Hope that helped.
Lila did it correctly. The answer is 324
Following PEMDAS, we first focus on the parenthesis. So we simplify 9-3 to get 6
So we go from
18*4^2+(9-3)^2
to
18*4^2+6^2
The next step is applying exponents. In this case, squaring the terms, so we go from
18*4^2+6^2
to
18*16+36
Next is multiplying
18*16+36
turns into
288+36
Finally, add up 288 and 36 to get 288+36 = 324
That confirms that Lila is correct
----------------------
The error that Rob made is that he computed 18*4^2+9^2-3^2 but it is NOT correct. Saying (x-y)^2 = x^2-y^2 isn't a true equation for all x and y. Again you have to simplify what is in the parenthesis first, and then you can square it. Or you must use the FOIL rule to expand out (9-3)^2
Answer:
Original side of triangle = 6 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter = 45 units
Scale factor = 2.5 (Increase)
Find:
Original side of triangle = ?
Computation:
Original Perimeter = Perimeter / Scale factor
Original Perimeter = 45 units / 2.5
Original Perimeter = 18 units
Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3 (Side)
18 units = 3 (Side)
Side = 6 units
Original side of triangle = 6 units
Answer:
11/16 inch or 0.6875 inch
Step-by-step explanation:
26 * x = 17 7/8
17 7/8 = 143/8
143/8 ÷ 26 = 143/8 x 1/26 = 143/208 = 0.6875
0.6875 in = 11/16 in
