1. For multiplication and division), we first compare the number of significant figure (let's call it SF later in the problem) that the factors have. The product will have the least numbers between them. So, for the case of 11.55 x 2.5, 11.55 has 4 SF while 2.5 has 2. So we choose the smallest which is 2 for this case. Hence, the answer is B.
2. Using the same rules as mentioned in Item 1, we first compare the number of SF in the numbers give. 975.0321 has 7 SF while 0.0003 has 1 (all zeroes not following a counting number are not significant). We now solve for the quotient and round it off to 1 SF.
(975.0321/0.0003) = 3250107. Rounding it off, we have 3000000 or 3 x 10⁶. Thus, the answer is D.
3. The rules for multiplication still apply even for more than two factors. So, let's first take note of the SF present in each factor as shown below.
0.00147 = 3 SF
8.314 = 4 SF
7.100 = 4 SF (zeroes after a counting number in the decimal place are considered significant)
From this, we can see that the product must round off to 3 SF. Multiplying the three numbers, we have
0.00147 x 8.314 x 7.100 = 0.086773218
So, the product rounded off to 3 SF is 0.0868 or 8.68 x 10⁻². So, the answer must be C<span>.

Answer:
Let x be the number of regular health bars you buy and y the number of strawberry health bars you buy. Then:
0.75x+1.25y=3.75
x+y>=3
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first equation, we have to assume that you will spend all of your money, otherwise it becomes an inequation. The money you spend on regular bars is 0.75x dollars and the money you spend on strawberry bars is 1.25y, so if you spend your 3.75 dollars on the bars, then 0.75x+1.25y=3.75.
For the second, you will always buy x+y health bars, regular and strawberry. There isn't enough information to make this into a equation, the only thing we can deduce is the inequation x+y>=3.
If we also assume that x and y are integers (we can't buy half-bars or one-fourth of a bar) then the minimum number of bars we can buy is 3 (3 strawberry bars) and the maximum is 5 bars (5 regular bars). x+y must be an integer too, so the possibilities for the second equation are x+y=3, x+y=4 and x+y=5. There is a finite number of solutions in any case.
Y=3negativeX+18. y=3(-x)+18. I hope I helped.
there are 6 terms in the simplified expression
