As we know that 
x=x0*[1/2]n
putting the values 
375=3000*[1/2]n
375/3000=<span>[1/2]n
</span>1/8=<span>[1/2]n
simplify
[1/2]3=</span><span>[1/2]n
by cancelling them
so n=3
so it will take 3 minutes
hope it helps</span>

In list T, consists of 30 positive decimals. None of which are integers. The sum of the 30 decimals is S. The estimated sum of t
Masteriza [31]

Answer: E - S = (-16 and 6)

Step-by-step explanation:1/3 of the 30 decimals in T have an even tenths digit, it follows that 1/3*(30)=10 decimals in T have an even tenths digit.

Hence: Te =list of 10 decimals

Se = sum of all 10 decimals in Te

Ee =estimated sum of all 10 decimals in Te after rounding up.

Remaining 20 decimals in T all have an odd tenths digits.

To =list of this 20 decimals

So = sum of all 20 decimals in To

Eo = estimated sum of 20 decimals in To

Hence,

E = Ee + Eo and S =Se +So, hence:

E-S, =(Ee+Eo) - (Se+So) =(Ee-Se) +(Eo-So)

Ee-Se >10 (0.1)=1

S=10(1.8)+20(1.9) =18+38=56

E=10(2)+20(1)=40

E-S =40-56=-16.

AlsoS=10(1.2)+20(1.1)=34

E=10(2)+20(1)=40

E-S=40-34=6
