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>

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=8;\ y=1\to(8;\ 1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=x-7&(1)\\5+2y=7&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2) and solve for x:}\\\\5+2(x-7)=7\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\5+(2)(x)+(2)(-7)=7\\\\5+2x-14=7\\\\2x+(5-14)=7\\\\2x-9=7\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\2x-9+9=7+9\\\\2x=16\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=8}

\text{Substitute it to (1):}\\\\y=8-7\\\\\boxed{y=1}

PLEASE!!!!!!!The adjoining figure shows two circles with the same center. The
Nookie1986 [14]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

\boxed{\boxed{\pink{\sf \leadsto Hence \ the \ area \ of \ shaded \ region \ is 264 cm^2}}}

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

Here , two circles are given which are concentric. The radius of larger circle is 10cm and that of smaller circle is 4cm . And we need to find thelarea of shaded region.

From the figure it's clear that the area of shaded region will be the difference of areas of two circles.

Let the,

  • Radius of smaller circle be r .
  • Radius of smaller circle be r .
  • Area of shaded region be \bf Area_{shaded}

\bf \implies Area_{Shaded}= Area_{bigger}-Area_{smaller} \\\\\bf\implies Area_{Shaded} = \pi R^2 - \pi r^2  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded} = \pi ( R^2-r^2)  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded} = \pi [ (10cm)^2 - (4cm)^2]  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \pi [ 100cm^2-16cm^2]  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \pi \times 84cm^2  \\\\\bf\implies Area_{shaded}  = \dfrac{22}{7}\times 84cm^2  \\\\\bf\implies \boxed{\red{\bf Area_{shaded} = 264 cm^2 }}

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>area</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>shaded </u><u>region</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>6</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>cm²</u><u>.</u></h3>
