Answer:No the student was not right.Neither of the estimations were right because she did not estimate at al.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Round 49 to the nearest ten: 50.

2.Round 184 to the nearest ten:180.

3.Add 50+180 to get 230.

The student was not right because she did not estimate 49 nor 184.

The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

Given diagram is combination of Rectangle and Semi circle.

Step:1

Res the attachment,

Area of given diagram = Area of A + Area of B..............(1)

Step:2

For A,

The A section in the given diagram is semi circle,

Diameter of semi circle = Total distance - ( 2+3)

( ∵ 2, 3 are top distance in the given diagram)

$= 10 - 5$

Diameter, d = 5 cm

Radius, $r = \frac{d}{2}$

$r = \frac{5}{2}$

r = 2.5 cm

Area, $A_{A} = \frac {\pi r^{2} }{2}$ ........................(2)

$A_{A} = \frac {\pi (2.5)^{2} }{2}$

$= \frac {\pi ( 6.25) }{2}$

$= \frac{19.63}{2}$

$A_{A} = 9.8174 cm^{2}$

Step:3

For B,

Area of rectangle is,

$A_{B} =lb$ .....................(3)

Where, l - Length = 10 cm

b - Width = 2 cm

Equation (3) become,

$= (10)(2)$

$= 20$

Area of B, $A_{B}$ = 20 $cm^{2}$

Step:4

From the equation (1),

Area of given diagram = 20+ 9.81747

Area = 29.817 square centimeters

Result:

The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.

In another baseball division, one team had a winning percentage of 0.444 repeating What fraction of their games did this team wi

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

$x = \frac{4}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Winning Percentage = 0.444 repeating

Required

Represent as a fraction

Represent the percentage with x

$x = 0.444$

Convert to fraction

$x = \frac{444}{1000}$

Next step, is to convert to fraction repeating

To do this, we simply subtract 1 from the denominator

$x = \frac{444}{1000 - 1}$

$x = \frac{444}{999}$

Simplify to the lowest term: Divide numerator and denominator by 37

$x = \frac{444/37}{999/37}$

$x = \frac{12}{27}$

Simplify to the lowest term: Divide numerator and denominator by 3

$x = \frac{12/3}{27/3}$

$x = \frac{4}{9}$

Hence;

There winning fraction is $\frac{4}{9}$
