In mathematical operations with significant figures the answer must r<span>eflects the reliability of the least precise number. 225 has three significant figures, whereas 0.015 has two -leading zeroes are not significant figures, so our answer must have two significant figures to reflect the reliability of the number 0.015, which has two significant figures.

225*0.015=3.4

We can conclude that <span> the number representing the amount of calcium in the liquid will have two significant figures.</span>

Abigail tosses a coin off a bridge into the stream below. The distance, in feet, the coin above the water is modeled by the equa
melomori [17]

Answer:

7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of the coin above the water is modeled by the equation

y=-16x^2+96x+112

where x is time taken to cover the distance

Now equating with zero.

0=-16x^2+96x+112\\\Rightarrow 16x^2-96x-112=0\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{-\left(-96\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-96\right)^2-4\times \:16\left(-112\right)}}{2\times \:16}\\\Rightarrow x=7, -1

So, time taken by the coin to hit the water is 7 seconds.

the graph shows the number of wimbledon championships of several countries. Write the ration that compares the championships won
arlik [135]

Answer:

The ratio that compares the championships won by Australia to the total number won by the United States is equal to \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Observing the graph

we know that

The championships won by Australia are 6

The championships won by the United States are 15

To find out the ratio, divide the championships won by Australia by the total number won by the United States.

so

\frac{6}{15}

Simplify

Divide by 3 boths (numerator and denominator)

\frac{2}{5}

Convert to percentage

\frac{2}{5}=0.40*100=40\%

that means

For every 2 championships won by Australia the United States won 5

or

The championships won by Australia are 40% of the championships won by the United States
