Answer with explanation:

It is given that, a scale reports a 15-pound weight as weighing 12.375 pounds.

The problem arose because , the staff or the working person,or some ignorant person who must be unaware of this machine has either by mistake or just to irk the person whose thing is getting weighed, must have changed the scale, due to that there is error in measurement of weight of that object or thing.

So,the option which demonstrates the statement correctly is:

Option A:

The Scale is both accurate and precise.

Answer:

- 1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = $\frac{3}{7+2}$ - $\sqrt{7-3}$

= $\frac{3}{9}$ - $\sqrt{4}$

= $\frac{1}{3}$ - 2

= - 1 $\frac{2}{3}$

Harry buys a TV priced at £1200 plus 20% VAT.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

£ 114

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = 20%

Amount paid = £ 300

Amount paid monthly =.?

Next, we shall determine the VAT. This can be obtained as follow:

VAT = 20% of price of TV

VAT = 20/100 × 1200

VAT = £ 240

Next, we shall determine the total cost of the TV. This can be obtained as follow:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = £ 240

Total cost of TV =?

Total cost = Price + VAT

Total cost = 1200 + 240

Total cost = £ 1440

Next, we shall determine the balance amount he needs to pay. This can be obtained as follow:

Total cost = £ 1440

Amount paid = £ 300

Balance amount =?

Balance = Total cost – Amount paid

Balance = 1440 – 300

Balance = £ 1140

Finally, we shall determine the amount Harry will pay month.

Balance Amount = £ 1140

Number of months = 10

Amount paid monthly =.?

Amount paid monthly = Balance / number of month

Amount paid monthly = 1140 / 10

Amount paid monthly = £ 114

Therefore, Harry will pay £ 114 monthly.

What is the graph of linear inequality 2y>x-2

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Please refer to the attached graph for the graph of linear inequality:

$2y>x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Method to draw graph of inequality:

1. First of all replace the inequality sign with equality.

Now the equation is:

$2y=x-2$

Now, find point and plot them.

Let us put x = 0, we get y = -1. So one point is (0, -1)

Let us put y = 0, we get x = 2. So one point is (2,0)

Now, plot both the point and join with straight line on xy coordinate axis.

2. Now, try to find a random point and put in the inequality.

If the point satisfies the inequality shade the region moving from the line towards that point.

For example:

Taking a point (4, 2)

Putting in the inequality:

$8 > 2-2 \\8>0$

So, (4, 2) satisfies the inequality.

Now, shade the region moving from the line towards the point (4,2).

We get the shaded region as shown in the attached figure in the answer area.
