Okay, rounding is when you take a number such as 198 and imagine that it is something easier to do math with, like 200. 
200 is easier to add with because there are zeroes in the tens place and the ones place. 
725 is easier to add with than 727 because the ones place digit, (5), is an easier base to use, just like zero. 
Using the easier numbers, 200 + 725 = 925
Using the original numbers, 198 + 727 + 925
*Because you took two pieces from the 727 and added them to 198, the four numbers in this problem are compatible. 
Compatible numbers are when you use numbers that are close to the original ones and make it easier to do the problem in your head. 
____
In the case of 87+ 34, the simplest numbers to use would be 90 instead of 87 and 35 instead of 34. Not as easy as the first equation, but still doable. 
90+35+125
    or
87+34=121
____
In the case of 222+203, the simplest substitutions are 220 and 200. 
220+200=420
or
222+203=425
Hope this helps,

Answer:

a) 121

b) 425  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

198 + 727 + 200 + 725 = 925

This can be explained with the help of associative of addition and subtraction and commutative property of the addition.

Associative property:

a+(b+c) = (a +b )+c

Commutative property:

a+b = b+a

198 + 727 \\= 198 + ( 727 + 2)\\=198 + ( 2 + 727)\\=(198 + 2) + 725\\= 200+ 725 \\= 925

a)

87 + 34\\= 87 + ( 31 + 3)\\=87 + ( 3 + 31)\\=(87 + 3) + 31\\=90 + 31\\=121

b)

222 + 203\\=(220 + 2) + 203\\=220 + ( 2 + 203)\\=220 + 205\\=425

The area of a rectangle is (x4 + 4x3 + 3x2 – 4x – 4), and the length of the rectangle is (x3 + 5x2 + 8x + 4). If area = length ×
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Width = x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area of rectangle=A= x^4+4x^3+3x^2-4x-4

Length of Rectangle=L= x^3+5x^2+8x+4

We have to find width

Width of rectangle=W= ?

We know that the formula for the area of triangle is:

Area of Rectangle=Length*Width

A=L*W

Since we need the value of width, length will be moved to the left of equals to.

A/L=W

W= (x^4+4x^3+3x^2-4x-4)/(x^3+5x^2+8x+4)

After long division, we will get

Width=W=x-1

How many free throws could you make out of 20
JulsSmile [24]

Awnser :

Ten

Explanation :

In a relaxed practice setting with no pressure, the average player should be able to make at least ten in a row. But free throws typically come in pressure situations, so managing the pressure is as important as practicing form.

I can’t download anything so if anyone can find a way to help with this I’d be grateful (^_^)
zaharov [31]
It's hard to explain by words so sorry if you don't understand. For the graphing part, starting from (-3, 0), plot points in (1, 2), (6, 3), and connect them. The end of a line should be (10, 3.5). You will understand better if you use graphing calculator.

The answer of a second question is {x|x is greater or equal to -3.
