Answer: The approximate absentee rate that day would be 8.09%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students who were absent = 36

Total number of students = 445

We need to find the approximate absentee rate that day :

Rate of absentee of that day would be

$\dfrac{\text{Number of absentee}}{\text{Total number of students}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{36}{445}\times 100\\\\=8.09\%$

Hence, the approximate absentee rate that day would be 8.09%.

Estimate 19.164 - 9.53 by first rounding each number to the nearest tenth.

Lina20 [59]

19.164 can be rounded to 19.2. That is because 0.164 is closer to 0.2 than it is to 0.1

9.53 rounded the the nearest tenth is 9.5 because 0.53 is closer to 0.5 than it is to 0.6.

19.2 - 9.5 = 9.7

Your answer is 9.7

Write a quadratic equation in STANDARD FORM given the roots:<br> 1, 1/2

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The root 1 is associated with the factor (x - 1).

The root 1/2 is associated with the factor (x - 1/2), which in turn is equivalent to (2x -1)

The quadratic in question is f(x) = (x - 1)(2x - 1). To write this in standard form, perform the indicated multiplication:

f(x) = 2x^2 - 2x - x + 1, or f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 1

What is the inverse operation of cubed power

aleksley [76]

The inverse operation is a cubed root. It is a square root symbol with a small 3 to the left of the radical. The cubed root of x is a number, when cubed, gives x. For example, $\sqrt[3]{8} =2$ .
