Answer:

1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

refer to attached.

the number in the thousands place is the number 1.

How we round this number depends on the number immediately to the right of it (i.e the hundreds number)

Case 1: If the number in the hundreds place is less than 5, then we keep the number in the thousands place the same and replace all the digits to the right of the thousands digit by zeros

Case 2: If the number in the hundreds place is 5 or more, then increase the number in the thousands place by 1 and replace all the digits to the right of the thousands digit by zeros

in our case, the hundreds digit is 2, which falls into case 1 above,

hence according to the procedure in case 1 above, we keep number 2 the same and replace everything to the right of 2 with zeros, giving us

Amy has a box containing 6 white, 4 red, and 8 black marbles. She picks a marble randomly. It is red. The second time, she picks

Sladkaya [172]

After the 3rd pick we have: 4 white, 3 red and 8 black marbles.
The probability that the 4th marble is black is:
P ( Black ) = 8 / 15 = 0.5333
After the 4th pick we have: 4 white, 3 red and 7 black marbles.
P ( Red or Black ) = 10 / 14 = 5 / 7 = 0.7143

How do i solve this problem?

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

surface area of one can 2πrh+2πr²

=2πr(h+r)

≈2×3.14×3/2(4.25+1.5)

≈9.42(5.75)

≈54.165 in²

number of cans=1000/54.165

=18 cans

material used=18×54.165≈975 in²

material left=1000-975=25 in²

A copy machine makes 28 copies per minute. How many copies does it make in 3 minutes and 45 seconds?

lina2011 [118]

Convert minutes and seconds to minutes:
$\text{3 mins 45 seconds} \longrightarrow 3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{mins}$

FInd 3 3/4 mins:
$\text{1 min} \longrightarrow 28 \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times 3\dfrac{3}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times \dfrac{15}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 105 \text{ copies}$

Answer: It can make 105 copies.
