Answer:

0.05 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The least-significant digit in the given measurement is the one in the 0.1 cm number place. The "greatest possible error" is half the value of that number place, so is ...

(0.1 cm)/2 = 0.05 cm . . . . "greatest possible error"

_____

For questions of this sort, we make the (not always practical) assumption that the measurement is rounded perfectly to the nearest 0.1 cm.

Determine the measure of angle a. PLEASE HELP ASAP!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle will always total 180.

Therefore:

$(9x+6)+(74)+(16x)=180\\$

Let’s solve for x:

Combine LIke Terms:

$(9x+16x)+(74+6)=180$

Add:

$25x+80=180$

Subtract 80 from both sides:

$25x=100$

Divide both sides by 25:

$x=4$

Therefore, the value of x is 4.

Now, to find A, we can substitute it for A.

A is measured by:

$\angle A=9x+6$

Substitute 4 for x and evaluate:

$\angle A=9(4)+6=36+6=42\textdegree$

Hence, our answer is D.

Answer:

The probability is 0.694

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability of getting a car washed be

P(W) = 72% = 0.72

Let the probability of getting a car vacuumed be

P(V) = ?

Probability of getting car washed and vacuumed is P(W n V) = 50% = 0.5

From Bayes’ theorem

P(V|W) is the probability that a customer gets their car vacuumed given that they are getting it washed

So mathematically;

P(V|W) = P(V n W)/P(W)

= 0.5/0.72 = 0.694
