Michael has 225 milliliters of a liquid. To find out the number of grams of calcium in this liquid, Michael multiplies the volum

e by 0.015. When he writes the number representing the amount of calcium in the liquid, how many significant digits will the number have?

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.
</span>
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>

Please help!!!!! <br> Which defines the piecewise function shown?
denis-greek [22]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

<h2>Why?</h2>

To answer the question, we need to find which piecewise function contains the graphs shown in the picture, we have that first line shown, is decreasing and exists from the negative numbers to 0,  and the line cuts the x-axis and the y-axis at "-2", for the second line shown,  we have that is decreasing but exists from 0 (including it) to the the positive numbers.

So, finding which piecewise satisfies the function shown, we have:

- First piecewise function:

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

First line,

We have the first line,

-x-2

The variable has a negative coefficient (-1), meaning that the function (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exists from all the numbers less than 0, to 0, and it cuts the x-axis at -2 and the y-axis at -2.

Second line,

\frac{x}{2}\geq 0

The variable has positive coefficient, meaning that the function (line) is increasing.

Hence, since the second line is not decreasing, the piecewise function is not the piecewise function shown in the picture.

- Second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

First line,

We have the first line,

-x-2

The variable has a negative coefficient (-1), meaning that the function (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exist from all the numbers less than 0, to 0.

Second line,

-\frac{x}{2}\geq 0

The variable has a negative coefficient ((-\frac{1}{2}), meaning the the unction (line) is decreasing, also we can see that the function does exists from 0 (including it) to the positive numbers.

Hence, we have that the correct option is the second piecewise function,

f(x)=\left \{ {{-x-2,x

Note: I have attached a picture for better understanding.

Have a nice day!
