Answer: n = 3.6

Step-by-step explanation: When solving an equation that contains decimals, we want to get rid of the decimals as soon as possible.

Notice that 1.2 is taken to the tenths place

but 0.68 is taken to the hundredths place.

To get rid of all decimals in the equation, multiply both

sides by the greatest power of 10 that is required.

So here we multiply both sides by 100 which

moves all decimals 2 places to the right.

So we have (100)(1.2n + 0.68) = (5)(100).

This gives us 120n + 68 = 500.

Now subtract 68 from both sides to get 120n = 432.

Dividing both sides by 120, we find that n = 3.6.

A structural steel fabricator cuts 25 pieces each 16.2 centimeters long from a 6.35-meter length
Daniel [21]

Answer: 2.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

The initial piece is 6.35 meters long.

We cut 25 pieces of 16.2cm each, so in pieces only we have:

25*16.2cm = 405cm

1m = 100cm

Then: 405cm = (405/100) m = 4.05m

And each time that we cut a piece, we have 4mm of waste.

Then we have 25 times the 4mm of waste, this means that the total waste is:

4mm*25 = 100mm

and 1000mm = 1m

100mm = (100/1000) m = 0.1m

So the total amount that was cut is:

4.05m + 0.1m = 4.15m

The length in the channel iron will be: 6.35m - 4.15m = 2.2 meters

So like my my claim is “Are we too dependent on technology” And now I have to write my first paragraph without giving the clue a
aleksklad [387]
Perhaps you could just outline the topic lightly but try your best not to give away your topic idea. In this case talk about technology but don't talk about the dependency of technology, for the first paragraph as mentioned in your title text and then in your second paragraph you could talk about the dependency of technology.
