If I have eight numbers and i am tasked to decide which of the set of given numbers is the smallest comparing 2 numbers at a time, I will have 28 comparisons in all. Trying all combinations for the first number, you have 7. Trying all combinations for the second number nit including its comparison to the first number (because it will be redundant), you will have 6 comparisons an so on. Adding it all up, you have 7+6+5+4+3+2+1=28.

Pepsi [2]

Hello!

998 rounded to the nearest 10 is 1000. It is also 1000 when rounded to the nearest 100.

274 rounded to the nearest 10 is 270. 274 rounded to the nearest 100 turns it into 300.

533 to the nearest 10 is 530. It is 500 when rounded to the nearest 100.

I hope this helps you!

In right triangle ΔABC, ∠C is a right angle, AC = 20 and m∠A = 41º. Find AB to the nearest tenth.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

AB = 26.5º

Step-by-step explanation:

cosA = adj/hyp

cosA = AC/AB

cos41 = 20/AB

Multiply both sides by AB

AB * cos41 = 20

Divide both sides by cos41

AB = 20/cos41

AB = 26.5º

Let A (10, 11, 12, 13 and B (a, b, c, d) Let g be a function from A to B defined by f(10, a), (11,a), (12, b), (13,b)) What is t
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

d does not have an inverse image

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  first set is    A (10, 11, 12, 13 )

     The  second set is     B (a, b, c, d)

      The function that from A to B is  f(10, a), (11,a), (12, b), (13,b))

Generally for a function defined by (x,y), y is the image of x while x is the inverse image  of  y

Now considering the function we are given and the value d we see that and inverse image is not defined for d in the function

hence d does not have an inverse image
