The following question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.

2 answers:

5 0

Part A: No, he is not correct because when both rounded to the nearest hundredth they equal the same weight. Jayden's fish is 2.12 rounded to the nearest tenth and Leah's fish weighed 2.12.

Part B: 2.12 = 2.120

I hope this helps you!

Answer:

Jadyn's claim is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Weight of Jadyn's fish = 2.120

Weight of Leah's fish = 2.12

Jadyn says his fish weighs more because 120 is larger than 12.

Jadyn is incorrect claiming the above fact as:

$2.120 = 2.12\\\\2.120 = \displaystyle\frac{2120}{1000} = \displaystyle\frac{212}{100} = 2.12$

120 parts out of 1000 are compared to 12 parts of 100 which is equal.

If a table seats 7, what is the least number of tables needed to seat 155 people

Fynjy0 [20]

23 is the minimum because 155 does not go into evenly and you have to have enough room for everybody, and make sure not to leave anybody out. 155 divided by 7 is 22.1428571429, you have to round it up to 23 so that everybody has a seat. Hope it helps!!

Write a word problem about equal groups and act it out to solve.

Answer:

One scientist was working two molecules:

$BF_{3}, SO_{3}$

And verified that geometrically speaking, those are trigonal planar molecules made up of an equilateral triangle. He designed both molecules and classified them as Plane dihedral Groups. Was he correct? Why?

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes He was right. Place one atom in the centroid of the equilateral triangle (S or B), and each atom in each vertex(O or F).

We can apply geometric transformations (plane) rotations: R0, R2π/3, R4π/3

(And spatial ones, as R1, R2, R3 180º rotation over each median.)

Composite functions show that this is not an Abelian Group:

$R_{1}\circ\:R_{2}=R_{\frac{2\pi}{3}}\\R_{2}\circ\:R_{1}=R_{\frac{4\pi}{3}}\\$
