Answer:

<h3>The estimate would be 3-0= nothing​, so her answer is not reasonable.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression written by Elizabeth as  3.3 - 0.21= 1.2, to check if Elizabeth expression is reasonable or not, we need to check if her answer is close to or equal to the answer of the diiferebce between 3.3 - 0.21.

Converting 3.3 and 0.21 to fraction

3.3 = 33/10

0.21 = 21/100

Taking the difference of both fractions

= \dfrac{33}{10} -\dfrac{21}{100} \\\\= \dfrac{330-21}{100} \\\\= \dfrac{309}{100} \\\\= 3.09\\

Hence 3.3 - 0.21 = 3.09 ≈ 3.0 (to nearest whole number). Comparing Elizabeth answer which is 1.2 to the answer f=gotten, it can be seen that her answer is far from the right answer with a difference of about 1.8 (3.0-1.2). <u>This large difference makes Elizabeth answer unreasonable.</u>

HELP!! I can't fail. 4 and 5 please!

Answer:

4) x = -3 or 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We factories each algebraic expression

4) x² -5x - 24 = 0

x² - 8x + 3x - 24 = 0

(x² - 8x) + (3x - 24) = 0

x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) = 0

(x + 3)(x - 8) = 0

x + 3 = 0, x = -3

x - 8 = 0, x = 8

x = -3 or 8

Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay
tiny-mole [99]
Edit: 33% is not \frac{1}{3}, therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect. 
33% = \frac{1}{3}. Multiply the bonus of $496 by \frac{1}{3} to get the solution of \frac{496}{3}, or 165 and \frac{1}{3}

Therefore the solution is $165.33

The cost, C dollars, of hiring a taxi is given by the formula C=2.00+320n, where n is the number of tenths of a mile driven. Wha
Ainat [17]

Answer:

$14.80

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you meant to put 3.20 since $320 a mile would be ridiculous.

C(n)=2.00+3.20n

If n = 4 miles we have:

C(4)=2+3.20(4)

C(4)=2+12.80

C(4)=14.80

So the cost of the taxi is $14.80.
