Explain how you know which number 1 15/16 17/8 63/33 is closest to 2

I will say there are two ways to solve this problem. The first is, you can use your calculator and calculate it to see which is the closest to 2. The second way is divide it and here is how you do it:

1 is just 1
15/16      =        16 goes into 15 for less than one
17/8        =        8 goes into 17 for more than two so you can rewrite it                                            as 1(17/16)
63/33      =        33 does not go into 63 for two

So the answer is 17/8

A cylindrical soup can has a radius of 1.8 in. and is 6.7 in. tall. Find the volume of the can.
avanturin [10]
<h3><u><em>I</em></u><u><em>nitial considerations</em></u></h3>
  • <em>radius = 1.8 in</em>
  • <em>tall = 6.7 in</em>
  • <em>Volume?</em>

<h3><u><em>Resolution</em></u></h3>

<em>Volume = base area x tall</em>

<em>base area = π x (1.8in)²</em>

<em>base area = 10.179 in²</em>

<em>Volume = 10.179 in² x 6.7 in</em>

<em>Volume = 68.198 in³</em>

<h3 /><h3><em><u>Answer</u></em></h3>

<em>the volume is 68.198 in³</em>

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLIESTTTT :)
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Yes, these triangles are congruent

∠E≅∠M

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, these triangles are similar.

<em>Proof:</em>

Each side in LNM is 1\frac{2}{3} times longer than the sides in GFE

30/18 = 1\frac{2}{3}

25/15=1\frac{2}{3}

20/12 = 1\frac{2}{3}

According CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent), angle E is similar to angle M.

Hope this helps :)

Have a good day!

Choose as many answers as apply.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

  • multiplying a multi-digit number by itself several times (finding the power of a number)
  • finding a square root
  • statistical calculations

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know what your introduction tells you, but the above-listed operations are ones I choose to use a calculator for. I also use a calculator for ordinary arithmetic, such as division by numbers with 2 digits or more. (It is simply faster and requires no scratch paper.)

If statistical calculations are not done with a calculator, they at least require the availability of suitable tables.

___

All of these operations can be done by hand without a calculator, and were in times passed. Lifetimes of effort were involved in generating some of the original math tables for statistics, trig, logarithms, and other functions readily evaluated using a modern calculator.

If f(x)=3 x -1 and g(x)=0.03x^3-x+1 an approximate solution for the equation f(x)=g(x) is
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

  x ≈ {-11.789, +0.501, 11.288}

Step-by-step explanation:

The cubic g(x) - f(x) = 0 has three real solutions. It can be rewritten as ...

  g(x)-f(x)=0\\\\0.03x^3-x+1-(3x-1)=0\\\\0.03x^3-4x+2=0

Since the solutions are irrational, they are best found using a spreadsheet or graphing calculator. My favorite graphing calculator shows the approximate solutions below.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

Your expression for f(x) is ambiguous in that many Brainly questions have the exponentiation indicator replaced by a blank: 3 x -1 often means 3^x -1 and sometimes means 3^(x-1). We have taken the expression at face value and have assumed it is a linear expression. If otherwise, the problem is basically worked the same way: write a function h(x) = g(x) - f(x) and look for solutions to h(x) = 0. Graphing can be useful.
