<u>Answer:</u>

0.0005 oz

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Usually, the greatest number that is allowed for approximation, assuming that the number itself is obtained by approximation, is the greatest possible error of it.

It is normally half the place value of the last digit in a number.

Like here we have $10\frac{1}{8}$ oz which is equal to $10.125$ oz. The last digit is 5 which is at the thousandth place (0.001) so the greatest possible error for this would be its half.

$\frac{0.001}{2}$ = 0.0005 oz

J.k. Rowling and R.L. Stone are both ready hunger games . J.k. Reads 35 pages every 2 hours and R.L. Reads 45 pages every 3 hour

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The rate of change for each reader is :

For J K Rowling : 17 and a half pages per hour

For R L Stone : 15 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the reading rate of each reader is given as:

J.K. Reads 35 pages every 2 hours.

So, the number of pages read by J K in 2 hours = 35 pages

⇒ The number of pages read per hour = 35 / 2 = 17 . 5 pages

So, the pages read by J K Rowling in 1 hour is 17 and a half pages.

R L Stone reads 45 pages every 3 hours.

So, the number of pages read by R L in 3 hours = 45 pages

⇒ The number of pages read per hour = 45 / 3 = 15 pages

So, the pages read by R L Stone in 1 hour is 15 pages.

Hence, the rate of change for each reader is :

For J K Rowling : 17 and a half pages per hour

For R L Stone : 15 pages per hour

Factor: a^2+b^2–c^2+2ab

Kruka [31]

Rearrange the polynomial:

a^2–2ab+b^2 - c^2

((a-b)(a-b))-c^2

(a-b)^2-c^2

Set x =a-b and y=c. The formula becomes

x^2-y^2

factoring this polynomial, we get

(x+y)(x-y)

Substituting back, we get:

(a+b+c)(a+b-c)

Let’s multiply it out to check:

A^2 -ab ac

- ab B^2 -bc

-ac bc -c^2
