We need to identify what "the nearest cent" is.
So!
AB.CD
That is a representation of a number using variables, but we'll just say it's for place values.
A is in the Tens Place
B is in the Ones Place
C is in the Tenths Place (1/10)
D is in the Hundredths Place (1/100
Since we are talking about money let's put it in relation to a dollar.
A is in the Ten Dollar Place
B is in the One Dollar Place
C is in the Tenth of a Dollar Place (1/10 of a dollar)
D is in the Hundredth of a Dollar Place (1/100 of a dollar)
So, what is 1/10 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 10, would get you 1 dollar. Or you can think of it as if you had 10 of one value of money and you got a dollar what is that? A dime.
Now, what is 1/100 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 100, would get you 1 dollar. 1 cent (Or it is sometimes called a penny).
So that means any number beyond the 1/100 of a dollar point (D) will be rounded. If it's the first number after the 1/100 of a dollar is greater than (or equal to) 5 then we round the cent value up. If it is less than 5 we round down.
$29.4983
So, 9 is our cent place. 8 is greater than 5, so we round 9 up. (Add 1. Since it is 9 it will carry over into the 1/10 of a dollar place)
Our answer is:
$29.50
There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.
<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
Let x represent the number of pears, hence:
Number of fruit in first box = 12 + (1/9)x
Number of fruit in second box = number of fruit in third box = (8/9)x ÷ 2 = (4/9)x
Therefore:
12 + (1/9)x = (4/9)x
x = 36
First box = second box = third box = (4/9) * 36 = 16
There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.

Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of a function are the values of x that make the function be equal to zero.
When graphing a quadratic equation, the graph is a parabola, and the zeros of the function are the x-intercepts of the graph, which are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis.
So, if the zeros of this function are x = -8 and x = 2, that means the parabola crosses the x-axis at x = -8 and x = 2.
Therefore the correct option is the first one.
